Answer / sumeet

Here is the URL to use to call report from java
The following URL will work. Please note that prompt names
are case sensitive and we need to prefix 'p_' to the
defined prompt names. Although this passes the prompt
values, it doesn’t suppress the prompt page. So, in order
to achieve that we include an additional expression
(&run.prompt=false)

http://<server_name>/cognos8/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi?
b_action=xts.run&m=portal/report-
viewer.xts&ui.action=run&ui.object=%2fcontent%2fpackage%5b%
40name%3d%27<Folder_name>(optional)%27%5d%2freport%5b%
40name%3d%27<report_name>%27%
5d&run.prompt=false&p_p_year=2007&p_p_month=09

Here p_year and p_month are the parameter name for prompt
