BI Viewer component and OneStream 9.0.0

Hi all,

We upgraded one of our OS instances to 9.0.0

After a first look, it seems BI Viewer does not work anymore from Desktop app, but charts are showing from Modern Browser interface, any idea? Can't find a clue on Know Issues.

On Desktop app, only the layout shows, no content:

Same Dashboard from Modern Experience shows fine (I blurred data here)

Any advice?

    This is a longshot but make sure for all the data adapters underlying your BI Viewer component have a table name set in the data adapter settings.  I have encountered issues sometimes when there is no table name referenced.

    Did you try to reset all parameters? Second icon from top-left.

    Hi,

    Sweez​ thanks for the feedback. Nothing related to the DA table name, there is one.

    JackLacava​ thanks too; unfortunnately, no effect with the reset parameters.

    Dashboard displays in web in any case, i think the component have an issue / bug in the Desktop mode; any of you succeed to have BI Viewer working on a v 9.0.0 Desktop mode? I'll keep testing on my side too.

    Regards

      Works for me... I still think there is likely something unexpected with the parameters or data adapters. I would try rebuilding the component in a new dashboard, one widget at the time.

    Ok JackLacava​ ; you were right, it was related to the Table Names, had to change them to make it work again in a simple dashboard

    but Still, when the dashboard containing the BI Viewer component is of Type "Dynamic Dashboard", it doesn't render, both on Desktop and Web. Inspecting the dashboard from Desktop shows component is here, DA are here, but nothing render. Any clue?

    Are you able to do a simple example using a Dynamic Dashboard containing Viewer?

    Thanks!

    Hi JackLacava​ , any chance to try your last example with containing dashboard set as Dynamic embedded?

    I'd like to confirm i am not missing something. 

    Thanks
