Importing Report Assets

InetSoft's reporting software is adept and flexible and allows users to import report assets in a variety of formats. View the information below to learn more about the Style Intelligence solution.

An asset is any reporting unit, which could be a bean, meta-template, dashboard, replet, etc., as well as assets within worksheets or Viewsheets. The options described below allow for assets to be selectively exported from the data space and imported into a new environment, thus facilitating incremental deployment. An asset dependency audit can also be performed.

Assets can be selectively imported into the data space by using the 'Repository' > 'Import Assets' node under the Server tab, which opens the 'Select JAR File' page. This allows an administrator to incrementally deploy assets to an existing environment without overwriting all the assets in that environment. The assets to import must reside in an archive file generated by the 'Export Asset' feature described above.

To import a set of assets from an archive file:

1. On the 'Select JAR File' page, enter the file name of the archive con­taining the assets to import, and click OK.

2. The 'JAR Information' page opens and displays the asset contents of the specified jar file.

3. Select 'Overwrite existing files' if the assets in the archive should over­write existing assets of the same name upon import. The default set­ting of the 'Overwrite existing files' checkbox is specified by the export settings under which the archive was saved.

4. Click OK to import these assets into the current environment.
