Common Panel Properties

All panels support:

• Size — Width and height
• Border — Width, color, style, border radius
• Background — Background color
• Opacity — Transparency
• Padding — Inner spacing
• Repeat on every page — Panel is shown on every page of the report (e.g. for headers/footers)

Working Copy

The report in the designer is always the working copy — the current work-in-progress state. Changes to the layout, panels, and the referenced data sets take effect immediately.

To freeze a stable state, create a version.

PDF Export

Click Export PDF to render the report as a PDF.

Without environment: The working copy is exported using the base config connections of the data sources.

With environment: When an environment is selected in the switcher, the deployed version (if available) is used with the environment-specific data source configurations.

Filename Template

Reports can define a filename template using {{param.name}} syntax:

Template: "Revenue {{param.country}} - {{param.month}}"
Parameters: country=Germany, month=June
→ Filename: "Revenue Germany - June.pdf"

Without a template, the report name is used as the filename.

Folders

Reports can be organized in folders. Folders also control access permissions (see Users & Permissions).
