Examples

In this example, you move a catalog object with a given type (workbook) and a given id to a specific folder. The workbook is called MySalesWorkbook. The object ID of the workbook is /@Catalog/shared/Sales/MySalesWorkbook which has the Base64URL-safe encoded id value L0BDYXRhbG9nL3NoYXJlZC9TYWxlcy9NeVNhbGVzV29ya2Jvb2s

The object ID of the destination folder is /@Catalog/shared/NewSales/MySalesWorkbook which has the Base64URL-safe encoded destId value L0BDYXRhbG9nL3NoYXJlZC9OZXdTYWxlcy9NeVNhbGVzV29ya2Jvb2s

cURL Example:

First, obtain the object ID of the workbook you want to move and the object ID if the destination folder. Base64URL-safe encode both values to determine the id and destId. You can obtain the Object ID value from the Inspect dialog for the workbook (or folder) in Oracle Analytics Server.

Run the cURL command with the required type, id and destId :

curl -i \
     --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
     --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
     --request POST 'https://<hostname>/api/20210901/catalog/workbooks/L0BDYXRhbG9nL3NoYXJlZC9TYWxlcy9NeVNhbGVzV29ya2Jvb2s/actions/move' \
     --data '{"destId": "L0BDYXRhbG9nL3NoYXJlZC9OZXdTYWxlcy9NeVNhbGVzV29ya2Jvb2s"}'

Example of Request Body

{"destId": "string", 
  "destParentId": "string", 
  "newItemName": "string", 
  "overwrite": true, 
  "createIntermediateFolders": true}

For example:

{"destId": "L0BDYXRhbG9nL3NoYXJlZC9OZXdTYWxlcy9NeVNhbGVzV29ya2Jvb2s"}
