iServer Encyclopedia Reporting

rmurphy

This example shows users how to use the BIRT Web Services Data Source to<br />
retrieve information from the Actuate iServer using the Actuate Information Delivery API (IDAPI). The Web Services Data Source in this example uses a custom connector class to perform the IDAPI communications with the Actuate iServer.<br />
<br />
The report performs three IDAPI operations, SelectUsers, SelectRoles, and SelectFiles. The Web Service data source takes the responses from these operations to generate a data set in the same way it would take a result set returned from a database query.
