Schedule a Report

Scheduled reports are delivered (to a set of emails, FTP location, or S3 location) on a specified regular basis (daily, weekly, etc.)

• Scheduling is optional. Data can always be downloaded from the Analytics Reports portal.
• Use scheduled reporting to consistently push recurring data reports.
• Apply scheduling to any new or previously created custom report.

2. Locate the report within the list of reports or find the report to schedule using the search feature by typing the name and pressing enter/return.

3. From the options menu (... on far right) of the report line, select schedule from the dropdown. A green clock icon will appear in the schedule column.

4. Set Scheduling by clicking the green scheduling icon to open the schedule setting panel. In the Schedule report panel
