Cognos Analytics

We are excited to release a new extensible visualization capability with Cognos 11.1.4!  Users will now be allowed to expand the current OotB(Out-of-the-box) visualization library with beautiful custom JavaScript-based visualizations.

Developers can build, validate and compile custom visualizations into shareable assets that can be uploaded directly to Cognos Analytics. These uploaded custom visualizations could then be used in dashboards and reports like any other OotB visualization with the proper permissions and properties behind it.
