SDK to Query a Universe

[Former Member]

Is there an SDK that I can use to query a universe? I want to access information in a JSP page that exists in a specific universe.

The Enterprise Web Services provides a Query Service, that you can use to construct and execute data Queries based on an Universe.

However, I'm thinking what you wish to access is the Universe Metadata - that's not possible via Java.

The Universe Designer SDK is used to create/delete/modify Universes - it's COM based.

You are correct, I wish to query a value stored in a universe object. Guess i will have to go down a different route.

Thanks

There's only limited accessibility to Universe Object properties via the Java ReportEngine SDK or Web Services QueryService Service.

Much of what you can see for the Universe when creating a Webi doc is accessible via the Java SDK, such as Object Name and Description, but anything visible only via the Universe Designer would not be accessible.
