Subscriptions with parameters
Hi Anonymous ,
In general, the process for subscribing to paginated reports is the same as subscribing to reports and dashboards, but there are a few differences worth noting.
Paginated reports allow you to specify the view of the report people will receive in the subscription by setting the parameters in the subscription pane.
-
Subscriptions can be sent with either the currently selected or default parameters for your report. You may set different parameter values for each subscription you create for your report.
-
If your report author has set expression-based parameters (for example, the default is always today's date), the subscription uses that as the default value. You can change other parameter values and choose to use current values, but unless you explicitly change that value as well, the subscription uses the expression-based parameter.

Why would this feature be for paginated reports only? Isn't it generally very useful to be able to create a subscription with parameters specified (not only for paginated reports)? The alternative is to duplicate a report page with a particular filter configuration and then create a subscription for that, but it's a pretty terrible workaround.
