Schedule MR report with HTML Launch Page

All our reports in MR require us to have an html launch page for input parameters (we can't use auto-prompting).

Since the report links in MR are to the html page and not the fex, we do not get an option to Schedule those reports by default.

So I was wondering if there was a way to allow end-users to schedule an MR HTML report. Maybe some javascript we can put on each html launch page? The scheduler would have to take the input parameters, of course.

So is ReportCaster not an option?

Using the Report Caster API. You can call a jsp page that accepts the parameters from the HTML Launch page and displays a new page that ask for scheduling information. Then the user can schedule the report with there parameters.

Hope this helps

So it seems the only way to do this is to code it via the API. I was hoping there was a built-in solution within MR (just like there is for fex files). I'll have to spend some time to figure the api calls out, I guess.
