About this task

For information about creating dashboard reports with IBM Cognos, see the IBM EMM Reports Installation and Configuration Guide.

http(s)://HOST.DOMAIN:port/unica/reports/jsp/dashboard_portlet.jsp?product=Product& report=ReportName

where

  • Product is the name of the IBM EMM application's subfolder in the Unica Dashboards folder on the IBM Cognos system. That is: Campaign, Interact, or Plan for Marketing Operations. (Plan was the previous name of the Marketing Operations application.)
  • ReportName is the HTML-encoded name of the dashboard report. For example: Campaign%20Performance%20Comparison

For example,

http://serverX.companyABC.com:7001/unica/reports/jsp/dashboard_portlet.jsp?product=Campaign&report=Campaign%20Performance%20Comparison

If you have scheduled the report, add the following to the end of the URL:

&isView=true

Note: Encode the URL using a web tool that you can find by searching for "URL encoding" or "percent encoding."
