Bursting file subscriptions Microstartegy

Bursting file subscriptions: Delivering parts of reports across multiple files: Large MicroStrategy reports and documents are often broken up into separate pages by attributes. In a similar way, with Distribution Services, you can split up, or burst, a report or document into multiple files. When the subscription is executed, a separate file is created for each element of each attribute selected for bursting. Each file has a portion of data according to the attributes used to group data in the report (page-by axis) or document (group-by axis). Ex:, you may have a report with information for all regions. You could place Region in the page-by axis and burst the file subscription into the separate regions. This creates one report file for each region. As a second ex:, if you choose to burst your report using the Region and Category attributes, a separate file is created for each combination of Region and Category, such as Central and Books as a report, Central and Ele...

Case functions Microstrategy

Ca se functions Microstrategy Case functions return specified data in a SQL query based on the evaluation of user-defined conditions. In general, a user specifies a list of conditions and corresponding return values. Case This function evaluates multiple expressions until a condition is determined to be true, then returns a corresponding value. If all conditions are false, a default value is returned. Case can be used for categorizing data based on multiple conditions. This is a single-value function. Syntax Case ( Condition1 , ReturnValue1 , Condition2 , ReturnValue2 ,..., DefaultValue ) Example Case(([Total Revenue] < 300000), 0, ([Total Revenue] < 600000), 1, 2) sum(Case (Day@DESC in (“Sat”,”Sun”), Sales, 0) {~+} Sum(Case(Category@DESC In("Books","Electronics"),Revenue,0)){~+} CaseV (case vector) CaseV evaluates a single metric and returns different values according to the results. It can be used to perfo...

MicroStrategy URL API Parameters

MicroStrategy URL Structure The following table summarizes the root URL structure used for every request to MicroStrategy Web. Environment Main Application URL Administration URL J2EE http://webserver/MicroStrategy/servlet/mstrWeb http://webserver/MicroStrategy/servlet/mstrWebAdmin .NET http://webserver/MicroStrategy/asp/Main.aspx http://webserver/MicroStrategy/asp/Admin.aspx Every request sent to MicroStrategy Web calls a central controller. Parameters are appended to Main.aspx or mstrWeb (in a .NET and J2EE environment, respectively) to indicate to the controller how the request should be internally forwarded and handled. The following examples show a URL for accessing a MicroStrategy folder when the user does not have an existing session. The URL contains not only the parameters needed to connect to MicroStrategy Web, but also the parameters needed to log on and create a session. J2EE environment: <a href="http:...

Apply or Pass-through functions in Microstrategy

Ap ply (Pass-Through) functions MSTR Apply functions provide access to functions or syntactic constructs that are not standard in MicroStrategy but are provided by various RDBMS systems.. Syntax common to Apply functions Apply Function Name ("expression with placeholders", Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, …ArgN) where: Apply Function Name – is a generic name used for the predefined pass-through functions described above expression with placeholders – is the string describing the actual expression or syntax that the engine uses while generating the SQL and which is sent to the RDBMS. The placeholders are represented by #0, #1, and so on. "#" is a reserved character for MicroStrategy. Arg – is an argument that replaces the parameter markers in the pattern. Arg1 replaces #0, Arg2 replaces #1, and so on. There are five pre-defined Apply functions to replace regular, predefined functions of the same type. For more details, cli...

Components of the MicroStrategy Engine

Components of the MicroStrategy Engine The MicroStrategy Engine consists of three engines: • SQL Engine • Query Engine • Analytical Engine These individual engines work together to fulfill report requests submitted by MicroStrategy that can be resolved by pure SQL alone. The SQL Engine is responsible for generating optimized SQL and producing result sets that can be resolved by pure SQL alone. The Query Engine is responsible for executing the SQL generated by the SQL Engine. The Analytical Engine is responsible for performing any calculation that cannot be resolved with SQL alone.

Multi-Table Data Import(MTDI) from one or more supported data sources

Multi-Table Data Import(MTDI) from one or more supported data sources In MicroStrategy Analytics Enterprise Web 10 onewards, users can now simultaneously import two or more tables from one or more supported data sources, this feature is called Multi-Table Data Import (MTDI) which has been renamed as Super Cubes in MSTR 2019 (Does it sound like multisourcing for all the users without admin help?) Currently, all connectors in MicroStrategy Web 10 except " OLAP " and " Search Engine Indices " support Multi-Table Data Import. Users are able to add multiple tables/files when doing data import from single connector, as shown below: Users are also able to combine multiple tables/files from different sources and store them into one single Intelligent Cube, as shown below:

Transaction Services - Configure Transactions

Configure Transactions in MSTR Web Transaction Services-enabled document displayed on an iPhone, iPad, or Android device can allow users to insert/update/delete data in to the database, using the options in the Configure Transactions Editor. To do so, you must link a Transaction Services report to a grid or to text fields in a panel stack. If the document is being displayed on an iOS device, you can link the report to the cells of a transaction table. Data from the input objects defined in the Transaction Services report is displayed in the grid, text fields, or cells for users to edit. Prerequisites: Ø You must have the Web Configure Transaction privilege assigned by MSTR user admin. Ø Create the Transaction Services report (usually a grid report) you want to link to the grid, text fields, or transaction table cells. Make sure that the Transaction Services report must contain the input object for each value you w...
