Dashboard Copy - Redirect Webi Reports

[Former Member]

Hi,

From within InfoView --> Edit Dashboard I can copy an existing dashboard (e.g. DashboardA) to a new dashboard (DashboardB) and save it to a new location. No problem there. However, when I edit any of the webi reports associated with DashboardB, they are also updated in the source DashboardA. It seems when I copied DashboardA, DashboardB points to the same reports as DashboardA

If I make a copy of the webi reports pointed to by DashboardA (same names to a new folder), how can I update DashboardB to point to the new copies? The only way I can find to do it is by removing the webi reports from DashboardB and adding in the new copies and then saving DashboardB. The webi reports from DashboardB are then indedepndent from DashboadA.

Any other ideas on how I can update the webi reports on DashboardB without having to remove/re-add then all individually?

Thanks,
Richard

Thanks Denis.....Could I use the SDK to update the references to the webi reports in DashboardB?

that's the only way. When you copy dashboard, only dashboard is copied, not reports inside.
