Title: Using data source Command Blocks to authenticate
Post by: CognosPaul on 11 Jul 2011 04:09:16 AM
Each user has their Essbase login details set as attributes in Active Directory, which are set up in Configuration. I could, for instance, do a #$account.parameters.EssbaseUserName# and get the correct username. So the question is, how do I pass these attributes to the data source?
