Export API Parameters for Dependent Objects

Avatar photoCustomer Questions & Answers 3 replies

When migrating reports, we need to ensure all dependent setup, like LOV definitions and category assignments, are included in the exported XML. Which parameters control this in `export_file_data`?

    You control this using specific optional parameters. To include definitions used by the report, you set parameters such as `p_include_lovs`, `p_include_categories`, `p_include_assignments`, and `p_include_templates` to ‘Y’.

    What about multi-language column translations and number formats?

  • Support Enginatics

    For column translations and number formats, you use `p_include_columns`. Be aware that using this option might slow down the export significantly, as the database needs to parse all exported report SQLs to identify column names.
