Email subscription with pdf attachment
- 4 years ago
Hi cherrypham
A PPU user can create a subscription email that contains a PDF of the Report.
That email can be sent to a Pro user and they can see the PDF.
However that email cannot be sent to an email address that has a Free licence or does not have a licence, you'll get the error message "Free users or groups can only be subscribed to reports or dashboards backed by Premium capacity: " when you try and create the subscription, unless the organisation has a Premium Capacity licence and the report is on a Premium Capacity workspace.
I have known some sites set up a subscription to a Pro or PPU user and then have that user set Outlook rules to forward that email on to the other non-licenced users who want to see the Report and that seems to work.
Hope this helps
