Reporting allows you to generate PDFs from any of your Dashboards and have them sent out to interested parties on a schedule.
Dashboard as a Report
With Reports there are a few things to keep in mind, most importantly, any changes you make to the Dashboard used in a report will be reflected in the report. If you change the time range in the Dashboard the time range will be the same in the report as well.
Setup
SMTP must be configured for reports to be sent
Rendering
Reporting requires the rendering plugin.
Reporting with the built-in image rendering is not supported. We recommend installing the image renderer plugin.
Usage
Currently only Organisation Admins can create reports. To get to report click on the reports icon in the side menu. This will allow you to list, create and update your reports.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | name of the Report |
| Dashboard | what dashboard to generate the report from |
| Recipients | emails of the people who will receive this report |
| ReplyTo | your email address, so that the recipient can respond |

Debugging errors
If you have problems with the reporting feature you can enable debug logging by switching the logger to debug (filters = report:debug). Learn more about making configuration changes here.
