2.1 Environmental confirmation

Switch the PC device and the mobile device to the same network environment. There are three methods:

1) Turn on the hotspot for the computer on the mobile phone.

2) Connect your phone and computer to the same hotspot.

3) Configure an environment that can be connected to the external network for the server.

Note: In order to prevent the IP of the computer from being switched to the IP of the wireless network, please unplug the wired network.

2.2 Platform configuration QR code

The administrator logs in to the data decision system, clickManagement>Mobile Platform>APP Config , enter the corresponding server name and server address , and clicks Generate QR Code.

This article takes the local server as an example, and the input address is  http://ip:port/project name/decision  , as shown in the following figure:

Note: The server address is generally the URL of the installed PC-side project. For special cases, please refer to the document: Section 3.2 Access FineBI via IP Address with Tomcat .

2.3 Configure account password

If you want to access the template on the mobile terminal, you need to have an account and password of the data decision system. For the specific setting method, please refer to: BI View User

After the initialization is successful, this article takes the built-in user Alice of the FineBI designer as an example, whose account and password are: Alice , 123456 respectively .

Note: For App download and installation, please refer to: App Usage

After the app is downloaded  and installed, open the data analyst app, click Server > New Server , and scan the QR code configured in Section 2.2 .

Confirm the server information, click the √ sign in the upper right corner to add the project in the server list and automatically jump to the login page. As shown below:

Note 1: Users can scan the QR code saved in the album.

Note 2: The user can manually input the server information, the server address is:http://ip:port/project name/decision

Note 3: To improve security, users expect data to be encrypted when the client communicates with the server. If the server has used HTTPS SSL encryption, the app also supports the HTTPS protocol when adding a server.

Enter the administrator's account and password on the login page to enter the homepage/main directory of the mobile terminal of the project, as shown in the following figure:

Note 1: If you enter the user account and password (non-administrator) built into FineReport, you need to assign the user the permission to view the directory. For details, please refer to: Instructions on Assigning Permissions According to Users

Problem Description:

When previewing on the mobile terminal, after scanning the QR code, it prompts that the server connection fails or the webpage cannot be opened. As shown below:

6.1 Unconfigured network environment

Reason analysis: The mobile device is not configured and is in the same network environment as the computer.

Workaround: See Section 2.1 of this document for details .

6.2 Firewall blocking

Cause analysis: If it is confirmed that the document process has been followed and the application configuration meets the requirements, the error may be caused by the Windows Firewall.

Solution: Users can directly close the Windows Firewall, and then perform the mobile preview operation. Or set up Windows Firewall to open unallowed ports as below.

1) Open Windows Security Center > Firewall and Network Protection > Advanced Settings , select Inbound Rules > New Rule , as shown below:

2) Set the rule type to port , the protocol to TCP , the port to a specific local port, and set it to the project port. Just save it, as shown below:

6.3 The mobile phone and the server are not on the same network

If the server connection fails in the intranet environment, you need to confirm whether your mobile phone and the server are on the same network.

6.4 Mobile Platform User Restrictions

After the platform user is configured in the "User Management"  , the corresponding user is not added in the "Users of the Mobile Terminal", resulting in the error "You are not authorized to use the mobile terminal at the moment, please contact the administrator".

You can use the default setting method of unlimited number of people, or add the corresponding users in the mobile terminal users. For details, refer to   the platform users  .
