3 | In ThingsBoard, **Reporting** is a powerful and flexible tool for collecting, structuring, and automatically distributing data in the form of reports. | ||
4 | |||
5 | Reporting in ThingsBoard is built on two key components: | ||
6 | |||
7 | * **Configured report template** – defines the structure, content, and format of the report. A template can be in **PDF** or **CSV** format and may include any supported components, such as tables, charts, text blocks, images, and more. | ||
8 | * **Scheduler event** – automatically triggers report generation at the specified time and sends it to selected recipients via available delivery channels (such as **email**, **Slack**, and other integrations). | ||
9 | |||
10 | **Key features:** | ||
11 | |||
12 | * **Automated scheduling** – preconfigured scheduler events can send reports on a set schedule without any user action. | ||
13 | * **Reusable templates** – a single template can be used for different recipients by applying filters and parameters. | ||
14 | * **Event-based delivery** – send reports when specific events occur (e.g., an active alarm on a device). | ||
15 | * **Rich content support** – include text blocks, tables, charts, images, and more. | ||
16 | * **Notification integration** – attach a generated report to system notifications (Email, Slack). | ||
17 | |||
18 | **Where it's useful:** | ||
19 | |||
20 | * Regular monitoring of your device's metrics. | ||
21 | * Sharing summary data with partners or management. | ||
22 | * Archiving data in an easy-to-read format. | ||
23 | * Automating communication during incidents. | ||
24 | |||
25 | **报告形式:** | ||
26 | |||
27 | * **PDF** – visually styled reports that may include charts, tables, images, and company branding. | ||
28 | * **CSV** – data-oriented tabular reports that are easy to analyze in Excel or BI tools. | ||
