Create the appropriate symbolic URL Arguments.
These arguments depend upon the particular Analytics report that you are trying
to display. The Argument Values should be the same for any Analytics report you
work with, except for the Path Argument Value. Use the procedure in
Section C.2.8.2, "Determining the Oracle BI Report Path Argument"
to determine
the path to the Analytics report.
C.2.8.2 Determining the Oracle BI Report Path Argument
The Path argument tells the symbolic URL the path to the report on the Oracle BI
Presentation Services. (For example, /shared/Sales/Pipeline/Overview/Top
10 Deals
.) Use the following procedure to determine the path to the Analytics
report.
To determine the path to the report
1.
Log on to your Oracle BI Presentation Services as an Administrator.
2.
In the Siebel operational application, navigate to Answers, then Oracle BI
Presentation Services Administration.
3.
Select Manage Analytics Catalog, and then navigate to your report.

Add this path name to the Symbolic URL argument.
The following table shows the symbolic URL path arguments for reports.

For more information on how to set up a view to use Symbolic URLs, see Siebel Portal
