How to import custom reports along with out of box reports(ready-to-use/ready-to-copy) in Report builder?
we want to import custom reports also along with ready-to-use and ready-to-copy reports at one take. But for this, first we need to know the location from where it is taking the data(I mean we need .zip file to import files right?) when we click on import Import ready-to-use reports provided by your data sources. So can anyone suggest from which directory/path it is taking .zip files to import ready-to-use reports ? And can we edit that zip file with custom report details to import both together?
Thanks,
Sarath.

Hi Sarath,
I would recommend this approach:
- When you have the existing ready-to-use reports in Report Builder, select all those that you want in your 'custom ready-to-use reports' zip file including the custom reports you have written.
- Export all these reports. This will create one zip file with the existing ready-to-use reports you want and your custom reports.
- To import your custom zip into Report Builder, use the link labelled "Optional: Import additional reports such as those provided by IBM, business partners, or others."
Would this satisfy your needs?
