Run Report action

Run a system or custom report

Use the Run Report action to run any report that's been set up for your customer project.

The action doesn't require any input items to act on directly. Instead, you can populate the data sources of the chosen report while configuring the action.

Fields marked with can accept a dynamic value:

  • Offset - set a date/time relative to when the workflow triggers.
