Deploys any combination of WebCatalog objects or the RPD to the target OBIEE environment. Objects will be deployed at the same path they were built from, ie. if a report was built from /shared/SampleLite/Reports it will also be deployed to the same location on the target server.
In the case of the RPD, property replacement on variables and connection pool information will occur if an RPD.properties Config File is present. For more information on Property Replacement for OBIEE, click RPD Configuration File Setup.

Artifacts
This operation consumes the artifacts produced from the obiBuild operation.
Endpoint Selection
This operation delegates endpoint selection to the workflow developer. The workflow editor will default the selection to "All", which selects all available endpoints associated to the environment instance. Selecting a specific resource will result in selection of endpoints associated to the environment instance which have that resource defined.
Endpoint Execution
This operation delegates endpoint execution to the workflow developer. The workflow editor will default to "Any", which will execute on any one of the selected endpoints, which will be randomly picked from selected endpoints or a specific endpoint where previous step may have executed. Changing this value to "All" to will result in execution on all selected endpoints.
