Save to Template

Use this dialog box to save an XML description of the selected analytic workspace, cube, or cube dimension.

The content of this dialog box changes depending on your selection of a destination:

Object Selection: Shows the contents of the analytic workspace in a tree. You can verify or modify the selection of objects in this tree.

Options: Displays the following options for the metadata saved in the template:

Save to File

Location: Identifies the directory where the file is saved. You can change the directory by expanding the drop-down list, using the icons to the right, or selecting from the Directory Tree.

Directory Tree: Lists subdirectories and files under the Location directory. Selecting a subdirectory sets the value of Location. Selecting a file sets the value of File Name. To choose between seeing all files and only template files, set File Type.

The icons to the right of Location also control the content. The icons are identified by tool tips: Up one level, Desktop, Create new folder, List, and Details.

File Name: Enter the name of the XML file or select a file in the directory tree to overwrite it. By default, the object name is the file name with an xml extension.

File Type: Controls the files displayed in the directory tree. Select Template Files to see only XML files.

Save to Table

Schema: The schema in which the template is saved. You must have CREATE TABLE privileges in that schema.

Table Name: The name of the templates table, which is always CUBE_TEMPLATES in this release.

Filter: To restrict the list of saved templates, enter a SQL WHERE clause. The following are examples of valid filters:

name LIKE '%SALES%' AND modified >= sysdate -7

version >='11.2'

parent_object = 'GLOBAL'

Saved Templates: This table describes previously saved templates. Select a template to overwrite it. The columns are populated with the metadata for that template.
