Hi Patrick, I see; was thinking the option &prompt=false would be doing that, but it's working. Do you know if it's also be posible to use the prompt value instead of using a static value ? static value: http://cognos:9300/bi/?pathRef=.public_folders%2FSamples%2FTestr ...

Hi Patrick, Thank you for reply on my question. Allthough it working right now, what did you mean with "clear the prompt for Values" ? &prompt=false &prompt=true are the only two I am aware of; are there more options ? Thanks in advanched. ...

Hi All, In which table (Content-Store) can I find the output of a report ? Found in internet CMDATA should give me the right record, but when I schedule, there are no more records created in CMDATA. So I don't think this is the right table. In my case, I expect to find 5 records with a Content-Store ...

Hi All, On 12 May 2021, IBM Cognos Analytics 11.2.0 was released. I have some Global Customers asking me when the IBM Cloud will be upgraded to this new (great) release. Told them, IBM is working this, but right now, I don't know anymore. So, IBM can you share the planned date when the Cloud ...

Hi Maarten, So on the IBM Cloud right now (2021/05/21) the IBM Cloud Cognos Analytics is available since 19 May ? Trust it will IBM not take more as one day to upgrade from CA 11.1.7 to CA 11.2.0 ? If not, why going to the cloud ..... Within our Global Enterprise Environment (hosted within Germany) ...

Hi Peter, Thanks for the reply again. Based on your post I found out what going wrong. Using the 'everyone' group does work, but that's not what we have and need. We have some different groups we need to give other capabilities and apparently that's not possible. Back to the drawing board ...

Hi Peter, It would make sense if it was working. I setup on folder level the required settings including the lower folders. But it looks like Cognos is not looking at these settings. Kind Regards, ------------------------------ Chris Bos ------------------------------

Hi Rachel, I appreciate your response on this forum/blog. Unfortunately I have to agree with Maarten, it's getting harder to defend Cognos to customers within Europe. I still love working with Cognos, but don't like discusions about BI capabilities. Before Cognos Analytics, IBM bought Many ...

Hi, Can someone explain to me the purpose of the Capabilies setting on Folder level ? Creating a folder within the Team Folder you can set some properties. There is a Capabilities TAB, but it looks like, Cognos ignores anything you configure here. I know deny overules the allow, but it looks ...

Hi Richard, I -normally- totally agree with you not going with "dot zero" releases, but with Cognos I think it almost doesn't matter anymore. With every release there are bugs or 'unwanted-features' even with 11.1.7 there are, so for me the "dot zero" isn't important anymore. When IBM released ...

Hi Peter, Thanks for your reply, but as you can read, it's not an option within our environment(s). I'm aware of the option within the BI Suite, but it currently it's not possible and it looks like IBM doesn't understand the request of many customers. There are more RFE's created for this issue, ...

Hi Robert, I like IBM is asking for feedback of clients on this (or other forums), but I dislike, it looks like IBM is doing nothing with this. This issue is a request of many companies all over the world and I don't understand why this is not already fixed. Created a few RFE, but looks like it's ...

Hi Robert, Thanks for your reply. I also thought about this option, but the situation is we have different teams responsible for different data-marts. So, we need different team-mail addresses available and can't use the one within Cognos Configuration. Creating a 'technical' team-user is also ...
