Users can have personal prompt answers saved for a prompt in a report as shown below
 

 
 
The code sample below explains how you can verify the prompt answers saved for a particular prompt.
 

package customclasses.misc;

import java.util.Iterator;

import com.Strategy.web.objects.WebUserAnswers;

import com.Strategy.web.objects.WebIServerSession;

import com.Strategy.web.objects.WebObjectSource;

import com.Strategy.web.objects.WebObjectsException;

import com.Strategy.web.objects.WebObjectsFactory;

import com.Strategy.web.objects.WebPrompt;

import com.Strategy.web.objects.WebPrompts;

import com.Strategy.web.objects.WebReportInstance;

import com.Strategy.web.objects.WebReportSource;

import com.Strategy.webapi.EnumDSSXMLAuthModes;

import com.Strategy.webapi.EnumDSSXMLExecutionFlags;

import com.Strategy.webapi.EnumDSSXMLResultFlags;

import com.Strategy.webapi.EnumDSSXMLStatus;

public class GetPersonalAnswers {

 

 public static void main(String[] args) throws WebObjectsException {

          // Create I-Server session first

          WebObjectsFactory objectFactory = WebObjectsFactory.getInstance();

          WebIServerSession serverSession = objectFactory.getIServerSession();

          serverSession.setServerPort(34952);

          serverSession.setAuthMode(EnumDSSXMLAuthModes.DssXmlAuthStandard);

          serverSession.setProjectName("Strategy Tutorial");

          serverSession.setLogin("administrator");

          serverSession.setPassword("");

          serverSession.setServerName("MACHINENAME");

          WebObjectSource objectSource = objectFactory.getObjectSource();

          WebReportSource reportSource = objectFactory.getReportSource();

         reportSource.setExecutionFlags(EnumDSSXMLExecutionFlags.DssXmlExecutionResolve);

          reportSource.setResultFlags(EnumDSSXMLResultFlags.DssXmlResultWorkingSet | EnumDSSXMLResultFlags.DssXmlResultViewReport | EnumDSSXMLResultFlags.DssXmlResultStatusOnlyIfNotReady);

         

          //retrieve Report for manipulation

          WebReportInstance reportInstance = reportSource.getNewInstance("7B4E9C324F255E5E725A449C4E2C47B7");

          reportInstance.setAsync(false);

          int status = reportInstance.pollStatus();

         

          if(status == EnumDSSXMLStatus.DssXmlStatusPromptXML)

         {

          //Get the prompts for the report

       WebPrompts prompts = reportInstance.getPrompts();

       

       //Get the first prompt from the set of prompts

       WebPrompt prompt = prompts.get(0);

       

       //Get the personal answer saved for the prompt

       WebUserAnswers userAnswers = prompt.getUserAnswers();

       

       Iterator itr = userAnswers.getAnswers();

       

       while(itr.hasNext())

       {

        System.out.println(itr.next());

       }

         

       }

 }
