Email Reports is a feature that generates automatic customizable reports that help product managers, application developers, and anyone involved with the product to get targeted summaries of analytics, crashes, or push notifications on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.
Getting Started
First of all, make sure Email Reports is enabled. To do so, in the main Countly Dashboard, go to Management > Plugins and enable the Email Reports toggle.
After that, you will find Email Reports in the Utilities section of your Countly Dashboard.
Providing that you already have existing reports, they will be shown in this screen. There you can stop and resume the report's automatic delivery with the toggle button and, through the 3-dot ellipsis menu, you can Edit, Preview, Delete, or choose to Send Now (without breaking the reports' determined delivery frequency).
Adding a New Report
From the Email Reports screen, click on the Create new report button on the top right corner of the screen. The Create new e-mail report drawer will appear. There, you are going to set the following parameters:
- Report name: What the email report will be called.
- Emails: Users who are going to receive this email report.
