Call to SWF using Token with openDocument / documentDownload - BOXI R2 -SP5

[Former Member]

Hello All,

Hope all is well. I am using BOXI R2 - SP5 - Java flavor. I am using Enterprise SDK to retrieve list of objects residing in a BO folder. I am able to retrieve them and provie hyperlinks witin external application.

THe objects are Webi documents and Xcelsius SWF. I am generating Token and passing it to openDocument.jsp . Webi documents open alright ... NO issues.

The problem is with Xcelsius dashboard ..when I use openDocument to open SWF ..... it redirects to

/InfoView/plugin/crystalenterprise/flash/openFlash.jsp

and then I get

javax.servlet.ServletException: bean CE_Session not found within scope 

Same is true when I go straight to openFlash.jsp as well.

If I go documentDownload route with

http://server:port/businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch/opendoc/documentDownload?iDocID=8376419&sKind=Flash&lsSCELogonToken=VASVCOMSV01D@8461403Jz8HmNGb0zYBedsV8461402JSfUxc9qZu1kHchm

I get

HTTP 500 Internal Server Error java.lang.NullPointerException

What am I missing here ....??

Thanks in advance,

Sam

Hello All,

Interesting behavior is that :

When I open infoview portal in another tab in same window and then click on hyperlink it does open the dashboard. It's most likely that BO is writing some internal values to cookies that BO code internally is referncing to. Could someone please advise as to what they are and how to create those cookie values?

Cookies that I found that Infoview creates when login to Infoview portal are :
