Secondary operations

For some resource calls, secondary calls can be used to retrieve additional output after the initial call has completed.

For example, after using pagedReportData to get the first page of the report output, the next secondary method can be called to get the next page of report output. To make a secondary resource call, use the URL that accompanies the response to the initial call, append the secondary request name along with any options, and submit this URL to the BI server. For example, the response to a request for the first page of report output could include the following URL:

http://localhost/ibmcognos/bi/v1/disp/rds/sessionOutput
/conversationID/ia1204bcaaa004c64b74921108f07c227?v=3

Submitting the following URL will retrieve the next page of report output:

http://localhost/ibmcognos/bi/v1/disp/rds/sessionOutput
/conversationID/ia1204bcaaa004c64b74921108f07c227/next?v=3
