Web Service url on BO 4.2?

Oct 04, 2017 at 09:37 AM | 387 Views

Hello experts,

1. Is it possible to use web service url as direct data source to WEBI? or should I create universe on top of web service url?

2. If I'm using web service url as data source to webi (either directly or via universe), what is the limitation?

We are using BO 4.2.

Regards

    Hi Experts,

    The requirement is to create a multisource universe with SAP HANA, Web Service, DB2 as the source systems. We are using BOBJ 4.2

    I was trying to do some RnD of using RESTFUL Web Service to create a universe but the options I get seem to be WSDL.

    1. Can you please let me know how I can achieve this?
    2. Also is there any action which basis needs to do such as set up connection with that system, etc
    We are not allowed to replicate the data nor use SDA to remotely access it. The only option provided to us is the Rest service URL.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.
