Support TM1PRIMARYDBNAME function in PAW when working with the Multiple or More than one Tm1 Databases.

Support TM1PRIMARYDBNAME function in PAW when working with the Multiple or More than one Tm1 Databases.

This functions works fine in TM1Web. However, does not work in PAW.

Please add support for this function in PAW with the multiple databases.


We are using the native function TM1PRIMARYDBNAME() to refer to the server name in PaFe,

When used this function to deliver the websheets from the development environment to Production environment and try to add the websheet to a book in PAW, we receive an error message saying we have a problem authenticating to the Dev instance. Issue happens only in PAW. Issue does not happen in Tm1Web.

Error message:

Authentication error

Unable to authenticate into the following server(s): Dev_24retail. If the server is running and uses a different mode of authentication, click on the server in the data tree and authenticate to it, then reopen the websheet to view all reports.


There is a need to add a support for multiple database usage in PAWorkspace websheets.

    Updated to future consideration. The primary database will the database that stores the Websheet file.

    This idea is not under consideration. The TM1PRIMARYDBNAME cannot be applied to Workspace since there is no concept of a primary TM1 database in Workspace. Consider that in TM1Web you login to a specific database. In Workspace you simply login. Websheets do still support multiple databases without the concept of a primary.
