Re: report manager limitation
HamzaJ You said: 7. Fixed this with point 2. I am specifically looking to add more organization in the way reports manager jobs are listed in a list view making it difficult to manager. We have over 50 jobs that I would like to be able to put in folders and there is no way to create folders at the moment. This is a small example. I would also like to manage recipients groups and set those groups at folder level. So when I get a request "can you add these 4 recipients to all the jobs for the party X" I can just edit a group instead of having to manage each of their 50 jobs. HamzaJ Can you explain how you fixed this?3.2KViews0likes0CommentsRe: report manager limitation
slosada These are not ideas, they are concerns or lack of features in report manager thereoff. I would like to add another complaint: Every time there is a release something or the other in the report manager breaks. This breaks the trust between us and our report recipients and in turn also breaks trust between us the sisense. Examples: recent release that broke CSV exported and we have urgent reports that were delivered with dates jumbled up. Sisense this accept this as a bug and then resolved it, however such incidents leads to break in trust. Since you have marked this submission as Needs Info, what more information do you need?3.1KViews0likes0CommentsRe: report manager limitation
Thanks HamzaJ If there a documentation you can link me to for RM role -api you can set that other roles can also create/edit/delete/view reports that they have created themselves. Can you elaborate on #2 please. How do you import Sisense Application DB and what are the collections from the report manager? Maybe there is a feature to import Sisense application DB data that I am not aware of because if thats the case I can solve a few other problems as well, like lineage analysis of what views are used in ElastiCube's. Currently I don't have a way to do this. We workedaround this issue by importing the Sisense Application DB. It has a few collections from the report manager.3.2KViews0likes0Commentsreport manager limitation
At Splash we have been using report manager for email delivery of reports to external partners. These are outside partners with minimum technical skills and want CSV reports delivered with data. We ended up solving his need using report manager plugin. There are several issues with report manager plugin that we have experienced in last few months and I wanted to understand if there is a different more stable and feature rich option for us. List of issues I am tracking No way for Sisense users to see who is on the email list, other than admins. Only Admins see the report manager tab. I would like users to manage or be able to review who is getting the reports. Email delivery is limited, who gets a report to answer I need to review each job manually. Error notification is never sent to the default email or the email provided in the job setup often due to server failure Intermittent failures with report delivery due to limitation on delivery efficiency or create some retry logic, to queue emails for retry Self serve ability, without buying more licenses how do we enable external partners to have a robust reporting platform where they can self serve. Example when they login they have access to a suite of reports that are canned reports ready to download each day. No SFTP delivery mechanism All report manager jobs appear in a list view, it is very cumbersome to manage I would like to understand how else can I leverage Sisense to build feature rich reporting capability. Let me know if you have a moment to connect. We have our sync coming up June 1st, but we can also connect prior to that.

Sisense ElastiCubes are the biggest consumer of our snowflake credits because we have to build our cubes every 30 mins to keep data fresh in Sisense. It would be useful to have time of the day level control on scheduling the build. Like Build daily at an interval only between the hours of x and y or other cron based scheduling. cron scheduling would be great since it allows us to set build windows, not build as frequently on weekends, etc. This would immensely help with cost saving. How quickly is it possible to have such a feature?1.4KViews1like2CommentsReport Manager: Error notification alerts not send
Sisense report manager doesn't send alerts when a scheduled report fails to run. In recent errors we had an issue where Sisense report manager hung on scheduled reports in running state. The support team was able to deploy a hotfix to resolve that issue but I was puzzled why in this case when they were hung running for a long time and one point they also errored, but we didn't get an alert notification. We have set the report to send error notification as indicated in this screenshot below. Does anyone else have experienced this same error and what was done to resolve it? I will open a support ticket but I wanted to check here first. When should I expect to get error notification? I would like to build something in case scheduled reports dont finish successfully and I was under the impression this send error notification feature should be the one to send me alerts. Any thoughts?1.2KViews0likes0Comments
