The Index List Web Service

The Index List Web Service request retrieves the following types of index information:

Cross-report index names for a repository
Report handles for sections of a report that match cross-report index values for a specified cross-report name
The Index names for a specified report
Report handle for a section of a report that matches index values for a specified index name
Data that are returned as XML attachment or native formats

The Index List request is supported for CA View and CA Bundl. CA View also supports cross-report indexing. CA Dispatch does not provide indexing capabilities.
