Replacing Custom Links in the Global Header

After migrating to Oracle Analytics Server, you might notice that links that you had added to the global header in the Oracle Business Intelligence instance are no longer available. The links are missing because the customlinks.xml file isn't migrated from the Oracle Business Intelligence to the Oracle Analytics Server instance. You must manually copy the file to the Oracle Analytics Server instance and enable the Custom Links functionality in the instanceconfig.xml file.

See Providing Custom Links in Presentation Services in Administering Oracle Analytics Server.

To enable custom links functionality:

Copy the customlinks.xml file to the following directory on the Oracle Analytics Server instance:
- (Linux) DOMAIN_HOME/bidata/components/OBIPS/customMessages
- (Windows) DOMAIN_HOME\bidata\components\OBIPS\customMessages
Open the instanceconfig.xml file for editing from the following location:
- (Linux) DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/biconfig/OBIPS
- (Windows) DOMAIN_HOME\config\fmwconfig\biconfig\OBIPS
Enable the custom links as shown in the following example:
```
<CustomLinks>
<Enabled>true</Enabled>
</CustomLinks>
```
Save your changes and close the file.
Restart Presentation Services.
