Reports

This mode allows administrators to send scheduled reports to Telegram chat.

To to set up a report project administrator must take 3 simple steps:

1. Select Report Type

3. Set up the schedule

I. Report type

You can select report’s owner. Each report must have an owner as his/her permissions will be counted while building report. i.e. if report owner has no permission to view the issue it will not be included into the report.

If no owner is set - current user will be set as report owner.

II. Filter

Issue Filter functionality is identical to the one in the Events, but relates to Reports only.

Please see instructions here.

III. Schedule

This section is designed to create schedule when reports are to be sent to the Telegram group chat.

Period	Hour	Minute	Day of week	Mode	Day of month
Daily

Monthly				First day of the month
				Last day of the month
				Custom day of the month
Once in	This type of period has a unique set of fields and logics behind it: Image Added

While period types like Daily, Weekly and Monthly send reports only once in a specified day and time, the "Once in" type lets you get reports more frequently and within a range of days and time.
