Create and manage report configurations

If you find you generate the same report on a routine basis, consider saving the report's settings as a report configuration. Doing so allows you to quickly generate the same report without having to configure the report's settings each time. Add a schedule to a report configuration to automatically generate a report on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.

Create a report configuration

To create a report configuration, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Reporting > Saved Configurations.
  2. Select + Create Configuration.
    The Create Configuration page opens.
  3. Select a Report Type.
  4. Enter a Report Name.
    Report configuration names must be unique, are limited to 240 characters, and can include special characters.
  5. (Optional) Select Append date to report name to add a date suffix to the report name each time you run the report configuration.
  6. Select an application or project using the Scope dropdown menu.
  7. (Optional) Adjust the report configuration's other scoping options, as required.
  8. (Optional) Schedule the report configuration to run automatically:
    1. Select Edit Schedule.
    2. Use the options on the Schedule window to specify when the report configuration will run (Daily, Weekly, or Monthly), the time report generation will start, and the day(s) of the week/month when the report configuration will run.
      Note: Remember, it can take up to 60 minutes for data from a test to be available to create a report. Scheduling report configurations to run outside of your organization's active hours (and after automated tests run) may improve results.
    3. Select Save.
  9. Select Save > Save.
    Tip: You can run the report configuration when you save your changes (Save > Save and Run) or run the report (using the options on screen) without saving a report configuration (Save > Run).
