Scheduling Automatic Emailing of Dashboards

Note: IT Visibility is being upgraded with the introduction of Technology Intelligence Platform beginning in September 2024. Flexera will contact you directly regarding the timeframe of your upgrade. With Technology Intelligence Platform, out-of-the-box IT Visibility dashboards are being replaced with new, enhanced IT Visibility Technology Intelligence Platform reports. For more information, see IT Visibility With Technology Intelligence Platform Reports.

Users can schedule automatic emailing of dashboards. Flexera One then regularly sends the dashboard as an attached PDF file.
