Increase Maximum Drop Down Values in OBIEE

All,

We will be wondering how to increase the number of values in the drop down type prompt. With the Default Installation of OBIEE - Drop down type prompt will only show first 250 values and shows the message (Too Many Values)

Solution:
We need to add a Parameter in the Instanceconfig.xml

1. Add the <Prompts><MaxDropDownValues>XXXXX</MaxDropDownValues></Prompts> where XXXXX is the number of values.
2. Restart the Presentation Services.


Impact:

Please note that providing huge values like 1000, 10000 will have performance impact to the Dashboard.

Best Regards,
Siva Pratap
