Zing Data is excited to introduce Scheduled Reports, a powerful new feature that enhances our alerting capabilities. Building upon our existing real-time alerts for individual questions, Scheduled Reports now allow you to:
Set up scheduled alerts for questions, enabling regular updates for Time Series Charts regardless of data changes.
Create scheduled alerts for dashboards, a new addition available in our Zing Data Console.
What Are Scheduled Reports?
Scheduled Reports empower you to receive timely updates on your data by setting up alerts that deliver insights at predefined intervals or specified data changes. Whether it’s daily sales figures or weekly performance metrics, you can now automate the delivery of crucial information without waiting for specific data changes.
Key Features Added
Scheduled Alerts for Questions: Previously, alerts were triggered when data changed. Now, you can schedule time-based alerts for any question to receive regular updates, ensuring you’re always informed.
Scheduled Alerts for Dashboards: For the first time, set up scheduled alerts for entire dashboards. This means you can monitor multiple metrics across different data sources and receive consolidated reports at your chosen frequency.
How to Set Up Scheduled Reports?
Select Your Question or Dashboard: Navigate to the specific question or dashboard you want to monitor.
Configure the Schedule: Choose the frequency of the alerts—daily, weekly, or monthly—and set the preferred time for delivery.
Choose Delivery Method: Decide how you want to receive the alerts—via email, push notification, or both.
Save and Activate: Once configured, save your settings. Zing Data will handle the rest, delivering reports as scheduled.
