BI Presentation Services and BI Publisher

The Oracle BI Reporting and Publishing feature provides the capability to integrate BI Publisher with Oracle BI. Users can access the BI Publisher application from the More Products > BI Publisher link in BI Presentation Services.

BI Presentation Services establishes a connection with BI Publisher. It uses the BI Publisher Administrator username and password stored with the alias bipublisheradmin in the BI Presentation Services Credential Store.

NOTE:  The BI Publisher Administrator credentials may be stored under a different alias in the credential store. You must direct BI Presentation Services to access the appropriate alias by specifying the credential alias in the BI Presentation Services instanceconfig.xml file. Refer to the chapter on configuring BI Publisher in the Oracle Business Intelligence Infrastructure Installation and Configuration Guide for more information.

Synchronizing BI Publisher Administrator Account Changes

If you change the BI Publisher Administrator credentials in the BI Publisher application, you must update the Presentation Services Credential store to reflect this change. If you have multiple Presentation Services instances in your deployment you must reflect the credential change in the credential store for each Presentation Services instance.

NOTE:  For information on user administration for BI Publisher, refer to the Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher User's Guide. For information on storing the BI Publisher Administrator credentials in the BI Presentation Services Credential Store, refer to the chapter on configuring BI Publisher in the Oracle Business Intelligence Infrastructure Installation and Configuration Guide.
