Values saved in a prompt

[Former Member]

Hello Friends,

I have a requirement wherein I need to identify whether the prompt(s) of a Web Intelligence document have any saved value or not. Can I get that info using RESTful web services?

Hi Anthony,

Not yet, I have been able to get the list of data providers in the Webi document but I am still struggling to get the list of prompts and the values stored in them.

It would really be very helpful to me if you can let me know what i need to do after retrieving the list of data providers.

Regards,

hi Chris,

You don't even need to get the list of data providers (unless you want to process separately each data provider's prompts).

To get the list of parameters (prompts, contexts, etc.) of a Web Intelligence document:

GET .../documents/{docId}/parameters

with Accept-Type: application/xml or application/json

Yes,

GET .../documents/{docId}/parameters is the API you need.

In the response, you will find all prompts (and also context and SAP Variable if any exists), for each parameter, previous and default answers are returned.

Is it OK?

hi Chris,

You may find the default values (if any) in //parameter/answer/info/values, and the previous values (if any) in //parameter/answer/info/previous.

Does this answer to your question or were you looking for something else?
