<p>Thanks you for the prompt response. Is there a way to use data from Python scripts directly in BIRT Report designer?</p>
micajblock
<p>If it is callable somehow yes. Can you provide more details?</p>

<p>In BIRT report designer there is a provision of scripted data source and POJO data source. Is it somehow possible to call Python scripts for report data?</p>

<p>Exactly my point. How would an external program (BIRT in our case) call a Python script (I am not familiar with Python). Once BIRT can call the script, one can write a scripted data source.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It appears to be possible from Java, so we could call such a thing in the open event of the scripted data source.</p>
