Attached is a business rule for you that would perform this for you:

• Retrieves all users from the OneStream security store
• For each user loads their full UserInfo object for the display name
• Reads their UserAppSettings.xml from the Internal File System via FileSystemLocation.ApplicationDatabase
• Parses the SilverlightHomePageUrl element and intelligently extracts just the dashboard name by skipping known keywords like Dashboard:False, Default, True, False, and Unknown
• Outputs everything to a clean sortable grid

 

I created this as a Dashboard Data Set rule, so you could attach it to a data adapter as a method query and then assign it to a grid component and then export out the contents from the grid.
