Instructions

See below for step-by-step instructions on how to perform this call, using a Java example:

Here's a basic request to perform this call, which includes logging in as the admin user and specifying the web service call to perform:

ReportServiceRequest rsr = new ReportServiceRequest();

rsr.setLoginId("admin@yellowfin.com.au");
rsr.setPassword("test");
rsr.setOrgId(new Integer(1));

rsr.setReportRequest("TEST");

If you need to specify a particular client org:

rsr.setOrgRef("org1");      // search for the report in this client org

Once the request is configured, carry out the call:
```
ReportServiceResponse rs=rsc.remoteReportCall(rsr);
```
Initialize the Report web service. Click here to learn how to do this.

The response returned will contain the StatusCode parameter. Refer to the Response Parameter table for details.

Instructions

See below for step-by-step instructions on how to perform this call, using a Java example:

Here's a basic request to perform this call, which includes logging in as the admin user and specifying the web service call to perform:

ReportServiceRequest rsr = new ReportServiceRequest();

rsr.setLoginId("admin@yellowfin.com.au");
rsr.setPassword("test");
rsr.setOrgId(new Integer(1));

rsr.setReportRequest("SCHEMA");

If you need to specify the client org where the report exists, add this to your code:
```
rsr.setOrgRef("org1");      // search for the report in this client org
```

You can even specify which report's comment to change the status of:
```
rsr.setReportId(70045);
```

Once the request is configured, carry out the call:
```
ReportServiceResponse rs=rsc.remoteReportCall(rsr);
```

This web service returns the filter values for a specified report.

Note: There is currently no way to pass user information into this request. So if a report has access filters assigned to it that restrict certain values, then only the filter values that the logged in user (that is the user calling this web service) has access to, will be returned.

Request Elements

The following elements will be passed with this request:

Request Element	Data Type	Description
LoginId	String	Yellowfin web services administrator user Id. This can be the user ID or the email address, depending on the Logon ID method. This Yellowfin account must have the “web services” role enabled, and must belong to the Default (i.e. Primary) Org.

Instructions

See below for step-by-step instructions on how to perform this call, using a Java example:

Here's a basic request to perform this call, which includes logging in as the admin user and specifying the web service call to perform:

ReportServiceRequest rsr = new ReportServiceRequest();

rsr.setLoginId("admin@yellowfin.com.au");
rsr.setPassword("test");
rsr.setOrgId(new Integer(1));

rsr.setReportRequest("FILTEROPTIONS");

Specify the report whose filters are to be retrieved:
```
rsr.setReportId(70066);
```

To retrieve a specific filter, provide its filter ID in the ObjectName parameter:
```
rsr.setObjectName("70081");
```

Once the request is configured, carry out the call:
```
ReportServiceResponse rs=rsc.remoteReportCall(rsr);
```
Initialize the Report web service. Click here to learn how to do this.

The response returned will contain the StatusCode parameter, along with other report specific parameters. Refer to the Response Parameter table above for details.

Report Result Set Functions

These web services are specific to the result generated by a report.

This web service retrieves the result data of a specified report, as well as the report's metadata. The report's result will be in a raw, preformatted format. This result will be stored in an array of ReportRow objects, which each such object representing a result row. Therefore, for each of the rows, an array of strings containing the data in each column of the result data will be present.

Note: It is up to the web services client to convert this data from the string representation into the data type for each particular column. The data types for each column can be obtained with the SCHEMA function.

For example, here is a Role Population report that contains two columns and specifies the number of users assigned to each user role:

User Role	Population
System Administrator	1
Consumer & Collaborator	5
Report Content Writer	4

This web service will return a ReportRow object for each of the user role, which every object containing two data strings: one containing the name of the role, and the other displaying its user population.

Request Elements

The following elements will be passed with this request:

Request Element	Data Type	Description
LoginId	String	Yellowfin web services administrator user Id. This can be the user ID or the email address, depending on the Logon ID method. This Yellowfin account must have the “web services” role enabled, and must belong to the Default (i.e. Primary) Org.
Password	String	Password of the above account.
OrgId	Integer	Default (i.e. Primary) organization ID within Yellowfin. Always set this to 1.
ReportRequest	String	Web services function. Set this to "RESULTSET".
OrgRef	String	Client Org internal reference ID (optional).
ReportId	Integer	ID of the report whose result data is to be viewed.

Instructions

See below for step-by-step instructions on how to perform this call, using a Java example:

Here's a basic request to perform this call, which includes logging in as the admin user and specifying the web service call to perform:

ReportServiceRequest rsr = new ReportServiceRequest();

rsr.setLoginId("admin@yellowfin.com.au");
rsr.setPassword("test");
rsr.setOrgId(new Integer(1));

rsr.setReportRequest("FORMATTEDRESULTSET");

Specify the report to get its formatted result set:
```
rsr.setReportId(60712);
```
You may even specify the report client Reference ID:
```
rsr.setReportClientReferenceId("1");
```

Once the request is configured, carry out the call:
```
ReportServiceResponse rs=rsc.remoteReportCall(rsr);
```
Initialize the Report web service. Click here to learn how to do this.

The response returned will contain the StatusCode and Results parameters, along with other report specific parameters. Refer to the Response Parameter table above for details.
