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.
