Reports

Use built-in standard reports and schedule automated report delivery.

Overview#

Reports provide pre-built, curated views of your data organized by business function. Unlike Discover queries (which are ad-hoc), reports are designed to answer recurring questions with consistent formatting, default filters, and scheduled delivery.
