loadReport using token

Hello Kai,

Please have a look at the following code:

String filePath = request.getServletContext().getRealPath("./integrationconfig.json");

FileReader reader = new FileReader(filePath);

JSONParser jsonParser = new JSONParser();

JSONObject jsonObject = (JSONObject) jsonParser.parse(reader);

String username = (String) jsonObject.get("username");

String password = (String) jsonObject.get("password");

String host = (String) jsonObject.get("hostname");

Integer port = Integer.parseInt((String) jsonObject.get("port"));

String path = "/services/AdministrationService";

AdministrationServiceResponse rs = null;

AdministrationServiceRequest rsr = new AdministrationServiceRequest();

AdministrationServiceService ts = new AdministrationServiceServiceLocator(host, port, path, false);

AdministrationServiceSoapBindingStub rssbs = (AdministrationServiceSoapBindingStub) ts.getAdministrationService();

rsr.setLoginId(username);

rsr.setPassword(password);

rsr.setOrgId(new Integer(1));

rsr.setFunction("LOGINUSER");

AdministrationPerson ap = new AdministrationPerson();

ap.setUserId(username);

ap.setPassword(password);

rsr.setPerson(ap);

rs = rssbs.remoteAdministrationCall(rsr);

if ("SUCCESS".equals(rs.getStatusCode()) ) {

String url = "http://" + host + ":" + port + "/logon.i4?LoginWebserviceId=" + rs.getLoginSessionId();

if (request.getParameter("redirect")!=null) {

response.sendRedirect(url);

} else {

out.write("Successfully used Single sign on ..");

out.write("<BR>URL: <A href='" + url + "'>");

out.write(url + "</a>");

}

} else {

out.write("Failed to single sign on the user");

}

[

this is the bit that generates the token so then you can load whatever reports you need

if (request.getParameter("redirect")!=null) {

response.sendRedirect(url);

}

I hope that this is of help!

Best regards,

Pete

Hello Pete,

thanks for the reply! I am able to generate the token (using Java). After that I want to use for example the javascript API to run a report with specific parameters. In your example I do not see for example the option to pass a User filter (like fe Supplier Number). Is that possible?

Best regards,

Kai

Hello Peter,

Thanks for your suggestion. That is the way I managed to redirect an url including a token. This results in opening Yellowfin without having to enter a password (Single Signon). Only then it is (to my knowledge) not possible to run a specific report with parameters/filters that also might change and need to be included when starting up the report.

Javascript enables the use of parameters/filters (included an example I used to pass filter values) only it seems not possible to include a token. So a user needs to be logged in already to run the report this way.

Is it possible to combine dynamic filters with single signon? The part under “Option 4: Embed Reports using Javascript integration” mentions “Single-sign is only possible with Yellowfin 6 + builds”. We are on 6.3.

Thanks in advance, kind regards,

Kai

Hello Kai,

Sorry for the delay!

inside this if if statement:

if (request.getParameter("redirect")!=null) {

response.sendRedirect(url);

}

you can then use the information from the wiki:

http://wiki.yellowfin.com.au/display/USER72/Advanced+Use#AdvancedUse-LoadingaReport

to allow you to load a report and use custom filters.

I hope this helps!

Best regards,

Pete
