Exporting a Local Query to the Global Repository

To export one or more local queries to the common query registry (query.xml file) so that they can be used by other reports, follow the steps below:

1. Open the report that contains the local query or queries you want to export.

2. Expand the Asset panel.

3. Expand the 'Local Query' node in the tree.

Alternatively, drag-and-drop the query to the desired location while holding down the Ctrl key.

4. To copy the query or queries from the 'Local Query' folder to the global repository (leaving the originals embedded in the report), follow these steps:

a. Select the desired queries in the 'Local Query' folder, right-click, and choose 'Copy' from the context menu.

b. Right-click on the desired folder under the 'Data Source' tree node, and select 'Paste' from the context menu.

5. To move the query or queries from the 'Local Query' folder to the global repository (removing them from their embedding in the report), follow these steps:

a. Select the desired queries in the 'Local Query' folder.

b. Drag-and-drop the selected queries on the desired folder under the 'Data Source' tree node.

 

The query or queries are added to the common repository. Elements in the report that were previously bound to removed local queries are automatically re-bound to the newly-exported global queries.
