Accessing a data object store file using a URL

You can access a data object store (.data) file using a URL, such as:

http://actuate1:8900/iportal/da?__data=<repository path to the .data file>

where

actuate1 is the web server that provides the interface to Actuate BIRT iHub, and 8900 is the default port number.

iportal is the home directory in which Information Console resides.

da? indicates that Information Console opens the file using Data Analyzer.

__data=<repository path to the .data file> specifies the repository path and file name of the .data file to open from an Encyclopedia volume.

When Data Analyzer opens a data object store (.data) file, the file appears, as shown in Figure 1-10. The data pane displays the cube data that is available for creating a cross tab.
