Business Objects 4.1 Instance Manager

[former_member350016]

Hello Team,

Do we have any easy way to extract the below information from Instance Manager,

• Name of the Schedule
• Schedule Frequency
• Recipients
• Report Owner Name
• Schedule Owner Name
• Format of the report (pdf/xls)

I havent useed SDK's. Apart from SDk's do we have any other easy way to do it or we can get these information only via SDK's can you please guide me on how to use it please.

As Jawahar stated, the only way to get this is to use a 3rd party tool or the SDK. If you're interested in using SDK, I have some C# .Net sample code here on my website and I can help you walk through what you need to do. It's fairly easy to translate C# to Java if you want to. Also, this information is not yet available through the new RESTful Web Services SDK, so don't waste your time looking through that - it may be available there in the future, but it's not there right now.

You need to use SDK or some 3rd party tools like 360 to extract this information.

The CMS Universe could be a solution, search for 'Unlock the CMS database with new data access driver for BI 4.2 SP3'.

Available since BI 4.2 SP3 but can connect to older versions also.
