Change name of attachement in reports

Hi!

I run multiple scheduled reports, same report, but for different smart groups, and email them to myself. Is there a way to email all reports at once, or at least change the attachement name DPA_ScheduledReport.csv to something else?

Hi Daniel,

You can add your reports in custom dashboard and email address in the custom dashboard and set schedule to send custom dashboard reports as email.

for more details please see dpa installation and administration guide topic "Custom dashboard".

Hi!

If I create a dashboard I can add multiple reports in the view, that's great. But... it takes some time,  I've to manualy edit the size of every report box to fit in the window, and I can only choose to email the dashboard as html, pdf, or png. not in csv-format?

I'm interested in getting email with attachement in csv format so I can import it to excel. So how do I change the name for the attachement when I choose to email an scheduled report? And is it possible to email multiple reports at once? If I send multiple emails I don't want the attachements to be named DPA_ScheduledReport.csv in each email, there must be some way to change the filename, run a script or something?

Hi Syed,

Do you know how to insert date and time to the email subject when publishing scheduled report?

That's pretty simple.  If you Google Java Simple Date Formats, you'll find several pages with the exact pattern and format for doing so. You should read the pages to understand how to build out particular patterns, but you'll also find examples in the DPA help pages.

Here are some examples:
