Microstrategy Authentication Using the URL API

Microstrategy Authentication Using the URL API Users have to be authenticated before accessing functionality in MicroStrategy Web. Using the URL API, there are three ways for MicroStrategy Web to obtain the information needed to authenticate a user. Opening the login page to gather user for credentials Bypassing the login page by providing credentials in the URL Bypassing the login page by providing the session state in the URL A detailed explanation of each method for obtaining the authentication information is provided below. Opening the login page to gather user for credentials If the URL attempts to access a MicroStrategy Web page that requires login and no credentials or session state are provided in the URL, the user is redirected to the login page. If login is successful, the user is redirected to the specified page. The sample URL shown below executes a report without providing authenticating information. Since the Repo...

display a group horizontally in MSTR document

Display a group horizontally in MSTR document By default, groups are displayed vertically in a document. This means that the detail sections are displayed below the Group Header. For example, a document is grouped by Year. The Detail section includes revenue and profit information by region. Displaying the group vertically yields the following document: For certain documents, displaying and printing the group horizontally is desired. When displayed horizontally, the detail sections are displayed next to the Group Header, running horizontally across the page. The example given above, if displayed horizontally, shows a row containing the year, and then, for each region, the Region, Revenue, and Profit. When the document is viewed as a PDF, it displays as shown below: When being designed, the document with horizontal display looks like the following in MicroStrategy Developer: The sections within the group are turned sideways and listed horizontally...

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...
