Configure a report

Visualize your metadata as a report by configuring widgets and customizing the display options.

A report in a viewing mode in the Neptune app.

Add widgets

To add a widget to a report, click New widget in the top toolbar.

Supported widgets

In reports, you can use the following:

Edit chart widget settings

Apart from customizing each chart widget individually, you can configure settings to apply across all charts of the report. Use Controls in the top toolbar to modify the following:

  • Apply smoothing
  • Change axis settings
  • Change series
  • Filter displayed data based on step
  • Show or hide inherited metrics
  • Use one color by group

Filter widgets by name

To filter widgets by their name, use the search. Regular expressions are supported.

Create sections

With sections, you can organize widgets into titled, collapsible segments. Create a section, then drag existing widgets into it.

Define run groups

Use the table view at the bottom of a report to update which runs are shown in the report. To switch between groups of runs, create tabs with different configurations of visible runs, then visualize or hide the group as a whole.

If you change the runs, you'll be prompted to save or discard your changes when leaving the report.

Use one color by group

To make all runs within a group to have the same color, change the global report settings:

  1. In the top toolbar, click Controls.
  2. Enable the option Color by groups.

Include runs from other projects

To add runs from another project to the report, create a new group.

Runs and groups that originate from other projects are labeled as "external".

note

People can only view the report data if they have at least viewer access to all of the projects included in the report.
