C# Automation Skipping “Execute Now” button to launch Script

I'm using a Visio button to launch a C# automation script and from the web it works fine but inside of cube I get the prompt to "execute now". Is there a way to have the script run immediately and not have this additional click inside of cube?

Hi Edward,
Small question, are you using the option 'NoConfirmation':
https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Basic_Functionality/Visio/linking_shapes/Linking_a_shape_to_an_Automation_script.html#options
If so, could it be the case that you are not passing all arguments to the script (dummy element, parameter)?

I got it to skip the cube automation start prompt by modifying the visio button string as follows…

Script:webclick||dmaID=XXXXXX;elementID=14;parameterNumber=1;parameterValue=14|||NoConfirmation,CloseWhenFinished

Where XXXXXX is our DMA ID

Hi Edward,

Glad to hear that it worked. Based on your feedback it seems that issue was related to missing values for the parameters.
