Managing templates
You can view, edit, clone, export, import, and delete the templates of reports you own (or have permission to manage).
View a template
- On the Reports page, click the report name or its View button.
- Click the Template tab, or open the actions menu and select View Template.
The Template tab shows all template settings — layout, filters, email, and schedule.
Edit a template
- Open the report.
- Click Edit Template.
- Change any setting — title, columns, sorting, filters, schedule — and save. See Creating report templates for every option.
Clone a template
To use an existing report as the starting point for a new one:
- Open the report.
- Open the menu next to Edit Template and select Clone Template.
Export a template
Templates can be exported as XML files — useful for backup or for moving a report definition between environments:
- Open the report.
- Open the menu next to Edit Template and select Export Template.
The XML file downloads to your computer.
Import a template
- On the Reports page, click Import.
- Choose the template XML file and submit.
Delete a template
- Open the report.
- Open the menu next to Edit Template and select Delete Template. A confirmation toast with an UNDO link appears briefly after deletion.
Warning
Deleting a report template also deletes all report results built from it. To delete results while keeping the report, use Delete Results instead — see Viewing reports.
You can also delete reports from the Reports list: select their checkboxes and click Delete in the toolbar.
