Adding Custom Analytics Dashboards


This process is similar to that of adding Siebel Analytics reports to the home page. You set up a new view using Siebel Tools, then set it up to use symbolic URLs. For more information on how to setup a view to use Symbolic URLs, refer to Siebel Portal Framework Guide.

Once the view has been set up, the symbolic URL configuration for Analytics dashboards is as shown.

The symbolic URL definitions are:

The arguments to be used for the symbolic URLS are shown in Table 34.
