Is there a way to export reports in report studio so they can be uploaded to another server?
![]()
It seems the only way I have discovered to move reports from one server to another is to use the Cognos administration panel and export a folder to a zip file on the server and move the zip file to the other server and run the import process on it. In our organization we have multiple large deployments that are co-located near the machines under test. We have separate Insight servers for each Installation and would like to have report developers share reports between the various organizations. This is a problem as the developers don't necessarily have server access to manipulate files directly on each of the servers.

David, I understand your pain point.
However, this function is provided by cognos, Insight is not able to enhance it. How often do you have to do the export/copy/import? If this is a routine work, I will suggest to write some code invoking Cognos SDK to automate and streamline the process. Everything you do in the web UI can be achieved via Cognos SDK. Comments
Refer to http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21338960 for sample SDK code and instructions to perform Deployment Import and Exports using the Cognos SDK.
Cheers.
