Does Link in Subscription Point to Live or Snapshot?

This should be an easy one...

You get an email that contains a link to a report. The email was sent automatically as part of a subscription.

Does that link point to a snapshot that was taken when the report was run, or does clicking the link cause the report to re-run altogether?

Thanks,
Dan

Hello Dan,

The link will always point to the current report. For instance, if you have an email subscription that goes out at 6am daily, and today at 8am, you open the report from the link in today's and yesterday's email, they both will take you to the most current report.

As for if it will be re-run, that depends on how you have the execution on the report setup. Whether it is 'Always run this report with the most recent data' or 'Render this report from a report execution snapshot' will determine this.

Hope this helps.

Hi Jarret,

That's exactly what I needed to know.

Thanks so much!
