Feature - downloading the dashboard as a report

Forum - Software
1

Hello,

I like the dashboard because it gives me a summary of everything that is not working :slightly_smiling_face:. In fact, I would love to use it as a report sent in a notification (aka an email every week in my case), as dashboard is built like a report.

I know I can create reports (and notifs) in the various sections, but unless I missed something, these reports don’t have “access to all” like the dashboard template does.

  • My asset section, when creating a section report, doesn’t have access to my expired projects filter
  • and vice-versa: my project management section, when creating a section report, doesn’t have access to my expired assets.

The dashboard has access to both (and display them)

As I can see it,

  • one could create notification feature for “dashboard template” in the Settings page
  • or one could “open” access to any filter in any section.
    (or maybe, if one doesn’t want to open too much, giving access to any filter at a “root section” like “Asset” or “Business Units”?)

LMK your thoughts!

I think that is a very cool idea, and we would like the same
At the moment we are still finetuning our dashboard, and maybe we will illustrate some of the data in a BI dashboard in the future, but for now I could really see the use for the feature :slight_smile:

Hello,

Yes, I think that makes sense. However, we currently don’t support exporting task widgets (such as calendar, future/expired/current tasks), so implementing this would require additional development effort.

I’ve added it to our backlog for consideration as part of the report rework.

This is great Sam!
If it can help speed up the process, I do not use calendar and tasks! :grin:

For reference I do use the calendar and the Future, Current, Expired tasks, but I would not need them in an export :slight_smile:
