Changing the title of a BW query

Posted on Mar 31, 2004 at 04:43 PM 15 Views

Does anyone know how to change the title in a BW query? I would like to pass a parameter within a url that would change the title on a saved query, but I can't find the document to do this. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance,

Chris

    Hi,

    it is not possible to change the description of the query itself, as the Web API will only work on the query view and not on the Query itself. So it is not possible to change the description which is stored in the database.

    If you only want to change a displayed text in a Web Application this would be possible, but you would need to describe your scenario a litte bit more in detail.

      You can use a text variable to modify the title of a query or web element. I don't know what rules you want to modify the description with but you could create a customer exit text variable to achieve this.
