RELATED IDEAS

REST API on Reporting Service (RS) / Report Builder (RB)

Use Case:

1. Report created and formatted in RS to end-user liking.

2. Reporting Service API returns the report as RTF result.

3. RTF result injected into PUB as a WYSIWIG report (primarily as table, graphics/charts (nice to have))

4. Use PUB to generate desired document

 

Missing capability:
Step 2. REST API on RS to return the RTF result for our report

Intent is to request the RTF result using RS API call in javascript within doc template in RPE, to publish result to a RPE text object.

    As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each enhancement suggestion. The IBM Engineering team has carefully reviewed this idea, and based on our understanding, it does not fit our future plans. As alternative, this could be accomplished using LQE relational store by creating query directly from the database. Although we are closing this request, it will be kept in IBM's ideas repository.  We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us to partner with you in developing our products.

    The RS API should return the entire result dataset as a singilar RTF Object. For example the user builds the query in RS and formats the results such that the output from RS looks how the user would like.. eg sample below

     

    ID

    Requirement Text

    Attribute1

    Associated Defect

    Associated Test Case

    Last Run Result

    23

    The cat shall

    True

    2344

    45

    Pass

    234

    Sit on the mat

    False

     

    25

     

    443

    Drink milk

    False

    4444

    26

     

    343

    Be able to jump high

    True

    555

    37

    Fail

    The RS API would return the RTF equivalent of the table above in a single Attribute which can be processed by ELO-PUB directly into a Text Object which using the XHTML-OUTOUT will render the RTF table in the generated document.
