Schema Search - Oracle Developer Tools v21.5.0 for VS Code - oracle

Is it possible to use Oracle Developer Tools (v21.5.0) to search the connected schema for a table/object/view/column without initiating a query? For example, I want to know if the column "EmployeeName" exists anywhere in a database schema.
I tried searching from the sidebar which is partially successful. The search & filter works but only at the level displayed. This is fine if I am looking for a table or view name but not if I am searching for a column name across the entire database.

Media files from database into OBIEE

Does OBIEE support importing media files like photos that are stored in particular format in database tables?
For example if you are making an analysis with a client info and want to add client's picture to it, how is this possible in OBIEE? Does Admin tool work with them? Couldn't find useful info on this in the web, maybe someone here faced this issue?
It can be done with rtf template. If the data is comming from BLOB column in a table then after inserting the element in the form field you just have to update advanced part of property box to:
<fo:instream-foreign-object content-type="image/jpg">
<xsl:value-of select="YOUR_IMAGE_COLUMN_NAME"/>
</fo:instream-foreign-object>
The same way you could insert different content-types (MIME).

View query of shared dataset that is joined with another dataset

Typically, when I click "Edit dataset" I can view the sql query used to create the dataset. When I click "Edit dataset" on a dataset that is joined with another dataset, I cannot view the query or the schema that shows the join. These are shared datasets so I suspect that it's an issue with permissions but using the quicksight cli wasn't helpful because I got this error when I try to describe the dataset
An error occurred (InvalidParameterValueException) when calling the DescribeDataSet operation: The data set type is not supported through API yet
Has anyone experienced something similar?
Turns out the issue was that the datasets were being manually joined against a csv file that was uploaded by another account. Manually uploaded files don't have an associated data source, so they can't be viewed by other accounts. I transferred ownership from the account that uploaded the csv to myself and now I'm able to view the datasets.

How to get Infromation Link query from Spotfire Library Database

I am new to Tibco Spotfire and I am working on a query to retrieve the query used by/generated by Spotfire while designing an information link.
I have access to the Library DB which saves the metadata of all the items/elements used in dashboards and stuff like that. I have been able to locate the information link items in the DB but I can't find the actual query that is used by the information link.
I need a solution that can be implemented from the DB, UI solutions are already in use and I am looking to automate that manual process of going to each info-link and clicking the "SQL" button in the Information Designer tool
so far I have come across [this link] (https://support.tibco.com/s/article/How-to-find-the-manually-modified-SQL-query-used-by-a-particular-Information-Link) on Tibco's community forum but it doesn't show the autogenerated queries (only the manually modified queries).
Any and all help on this will be much appreciated
Thanks
This should be in the SQL logs on the server. Attempt to open the info link. Then, log into the server. Go to the folder where your spotfire installation is and find a folder that looks like this...
\Tibco\tss\10.3.6\tomcat\logs
...and you want the SQL.txt file. Search for your user name.

Oracle APEX simple crud database app

I am very new to oracle pl/sql and APEX and not familiar yet to it.
I want to make a simple CRUD project using the Oracle's Application Express : https://apex.oracle.com/en/ , but unfortunately I could not find any example or documentation. I got some courses but the versions of apex differ and a lot of things have been changed so I am not able to implement what I need.
I have created a simple new table just for practice in the following way:
Sql Workshop -> Object Browser -> Create Table
And I have a very simple table: New_Table with fields: id (INTEGER), name(VARCHAR2)
Now I want to make a simple crud website for this table, but cannot understand how the forms work.
I created a database project: App Builder -> Database Applications -> Create and got a simple web project with a blank page.
Questions:
How can I create the form and bind it to the table?
If I understand correctly, for editing a record, I should pass the id to the next page, how can I do it? or how to implement the edit page?
How can I get the data from form fields, validate it and execute an sql query using that data?
Thank you very much!
Easiest way to start is to click Create Page, choose Form, then Form on a Table with Report. Follow the wizard to select your table and columns, and viola.
It will create two pages - a report page and a single-record edit page, with navigation links between them. You can then examine the regions, items, buttons and page processes on these pages to learn how they work.

Oracle ADF 11.1.1.4 blind query triggered

I am working/maintaining an application built on Oracle ADF 11.1.1.4 version migrated from 10g during developement phase itself. We are using BC4j to talk to Oracle 10g database. The application is very heavily data centric and so there are chances that the query triggered through GUI may be have bad plan based on the search criteria entered by the user. Most of the places we have marked few fields mandatory to search on where potentially we see a bad query to be formed.
Issue: Currently in production user open muliple tabs for different screens, one of which is a screen where we have made it mandatory to enter few search values before searching/Querying the data. In the corresponding view criteria of that View Object we have marked those fields as selective required. But somehow we see a blind query triggered even when user hasn't clicked on search button on that page
It seems to comeup when the session expires on one of the pages opened and user clicks the OK. button
I am not sure is the framework triggereing some blind query when the page expires or else. There are many listeners on the page, but I am not sure why session timeeout can cause it.THe query is the same as that in the corresponding VO where we have maked few fields as selectively required. The long running query causes stuck thread on Weblogic server causing it to crash eventually after sometime.
Kindly anybody please advise if there has been an Oracle bug reported or any solution. We are seeing this on couple of pages where view criteria has few fields marked as selectively required.
Thanks
#Edit: The pages either jspx or page fragments jsff
You might be running into an effect as described here http://andrejusb.blogspot.ca/2012/08/adf-bc-passivationactivation-and-sql.html?m=1
You can try the technique I showed here https://tompeez.wordpress.com/2012/03/18/jdeveloper-preventing-return-of-large-row-sets-on-page-load-of-vo-using-bind-variable/ to prevent executing of queues on first load.
