What is Local Report Exporter?

Introduction

In Tech Insights Analytics, when you try to share a report, you can now see that there is a new option called the 'Local Report Exporter'.

What does it do?

This feature lets you send custom reports to a location specified in your 'Custom file interface' configuration in your Vyopta admin portal (as shown below).

Once you enter the Name and Description, hit Save, and then the following will be displayed shown below:

By default, files will be downloaded to the WXPCollaboration Downloads folder beneath the installation directory. This path may be changed using the custom file folder location settings.

If you are running multiple collectors, you may assign the download facility to a specific collector instance using the collection agent setting shown in the details pane above. This normally is your default collector.

If you have newly created this Custom interface facility, you will need to explicitly enable the infrastructure component before the interface will function.

How to send a report using Local Report Exporter?

In Tech Insights analytics, you can navigate to the tab from which you would like to send out a custom report as you would previously do.

With Local Report Exporter, you can schedule this report to be sent to this specified location instead of receiving it in your email.

Reports are sent only in CSV format, and you can schedule them to be sent once, daily, weekly, or monthly to a folder.

The reporting period for the report can be anything, starting from 7 days.
