Hi @Reinier Battenberg​,

Hi Giang,

I am not IBM, so I am only guessing. Here is what you could do:

- Login to Cognos
- Open a second tab in your browser
- Go to the URL:
https://yourserver:9300/bi/v1/configuration/keys?keys=Mapbox.secretToken,Mapbox.accountName,Mapbox.token

You now receive a file with the tokens that Cognos uses to access Mapbox tiles.

To check if your tokens are valid, construct the following URL:

https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/ibmrave/civih7tgu003l2jre7itlidc9/sprite.png?access_token=<YOUR Mapbox token, the one starting with pk.>

If that last URL throws an error, your key is invalid, and your install is probably broken. Contact IBM or reinstall your cognos.

Good luck,

Reinier

Hi,
I don't understand your point. So for Map visualization, IBM Cognos have to access to api.mapbox.com to get map?
Can you give me any architecture when IBM Cognos connect to Mapbox?

Is that require IBM Cognos Server have internet to access mapbox?

Thanks.

Hi Rienier,
Thanks for your reply.

Did you see my errors in js console?
As i understand, i only need to install Cognos and use without any configure Mapbox right?

I don't know when i should use access token from my account?

Here what i tested and it's worked with access token public.
