Report, Ad hoc report and Dashboard in pentaho - report

I'm currently working on a project to implement a BI solution. I chose Pentaho
There are many tools to create:
reports (report designer)
adhoc reports (WAHQR ou PIR)
Dashboard (dashboard designer or CDE)
Analyze (analyzer or saiku)
(in big the one I'll use)
The question is, which tool is used by the final user (non technic) and which by the technician/developer?
And which of these tools create report/dashboard that can be executed repeatedly with a scheduler / just one time on demand?
thks for your help

Developer : All
User : SAIKU
Reports generated by Pentaho Report Dssigner could be excuted by scheduler. This is also able to be executed by scheduler using kitchen using Pentaho Reporting Output step.

Report or Dashboard

I want to create a software package that at each run, reading csv daily report located on a specific path, will create report (pdf) or a dashboard visible to the user. I would like to have a package platform independent so the user can see the report or the dashboard without problem.
I've implemented a dashboard with Power BI but the user that should see the report/dashboard must have PowerBI.

How Fetch AppDynamics Reports in Java

Do we have any opensource or any proven code which collects the App Dynamics reports from App Dynamics Servers ?
Generally the workflow for sending reports from AppDynamics is as follows:
Create a Custom Dashboard - https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO21/Custom+Dashboards
Add Widgets to your Dashboard containing the tables, charts etc that you want to see in your report - https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO21/Widgets
Now you can send a report (one-off or scheduled) by configuring a report based off the Dashboard you have created, including setting the time range of the report - https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO21/Reports
Note: There is a sample custom dashboard .json available here to get you started: https://community.appdynamics.com/t5/Knowledge-Base/Sample-Custom-Dashboard-for-Business-Transaction-Report/ta-p/21264
Note: There are already many "Standard Reports" which could make things easier depending on use case.
Note: If you instead want to export data and then analyse with your own tooling, then see the docs on Public API's available here: https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO21/AppDynamics+APIs

Thruk Availability Report

I have installed Nagios Core 4.2.4 with Thruk integrated in it.I am trying to use the availability report feature in thruk through cli.Is there any API query I can use for that? Any help would be helpful and appreciated. Thanks in advance.
There are a few kinds of different reports in Thruk.
if you are talking about the sla reports from the reports plugin, you have to create the report in the webui first, you can then trigger the report from the cli by thruk report .... Thats the menu item Reporting.
if you are talking about the Availability menu item, then you can simply create that report from the command line because every page in thruk can be triggered from cli. Simply run thruk url to get a few examples.

SSIS Google Analytics - Dimension and Metrics Blank

I am trying to use the SSIS Google Analytics connector https://analyticssource.codeplex.com/
The problem I am running into is that the dimension and metric drop down menus are blank, as are the dimension and metric tabs.
I am able to log in successfully. It gives me the Access Token and I can see all the Accounts, Web Properties, and Profiles I am expecting to see.
This is a corporate account that is managed by IT, which may be affecting things.
I am able to run queries and see dimensions and metrics using Google Analytics query explorer, so I don't think it's a permisions issue. https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/query-explorer/
I am on a Windows 7 machine using Visual Studio 2012.
You need to download the dimension and metric xml files in down load section and point to these two files in your ssis componen.

OBIEE Catalog Manager - Determine which DASHBOARDS utilize particular reports

I've recently been using the Oracle Catalog Manager to create lineage reports to determine which analyses use particular columns. I haven't found a way, however, to determine which reports are used on particular dashboards. So if I wanted to delete a report, is there a way to determine which dashboards would be affected?
I know that when I migrate a dashboard page from the development environment to the test environment that the structure is preserved, so this information must be saved somewhere. However, when I try to create a report in the "_portal" folder that contains the dashboards, the report is always blank.
I was using this page as an initial reference, but it only discusses how to find the reports that would be affected should a column be deleted from the rpd.
Part of what I'm trying to do is a clean-up to locate reports that aren't being used on any dashboards, but I also want to be able to better track which reports are being used and on which dashboards.
The Create Report function will build a report of Dashboard/Analysis relationships.
Regarding moving/copying dashboards, it will not move all the dependent objects automatically - you will need to structure your Presentation Catalog such that you can migrate folders of objects as required.
OBIEE Catalog Manager Report lacks the ability to extract data as
Dashboard,
Dashboard Page,
Dashboard Prompt,
Analysis
in a single row of data
We can have two combinations
Dashboard, Dashboard Page OR
Dashboard, Dashboard Prompt, Analysis
The OBIEE usage table does store the 4 fields in a single row.
