Enabling the Online Catalog Manager to Connect

How you enable online Catalog Manager to point to a new URL when analytics becomes protected when using SSO.

The online Catalog Manager might fail to connect to Oracle BI Presentation Services when the HTTP web server for Oracle Business Intelligence is enabled for SSO. When you enable SSO in Enabling SSO Authentication Using Fusion Middleware Control, the Oracle Business Intelligence URL http://hostname:port_number/analytics becomes protected, and you must point the online Catalog Manager to the URL http://hostname:port_number/analytics-ws instead. The URL should remain unprotected. It is configured only to accept SOAP access as used by Oracle BI Publisher, Oracle BI Add-in for Microsoft Office, and the online Catalog Manager.

To log in to the online Catalog Manager when SSO is enabled you must change the URL suffix to point to analytics-ws/saw.dll.
