Hi,
I have created an action summary report for a speciffic fixlet which includes all operators and statuses, using this report i setup a scheduled activity to email the report when the report changes and the report to be created every 1 min, however it takes over 5 mins to recieve an email of the report when for example the fixlet has been deployed. I basically want an instant notification when this fixlet has been run by any user.

Hi Paul,
There are several possible delays in the system (including BigFix Agent reporting delays of a few seconds to minutes, putting the data in the database delays of seconds to minutes, web reports refresh delays of seconds (maybe minutes), and email delays).
I would suggest changing your web reports refresh interval to something low (maybe 30 seconds) and also set your email trigger to run every refresh. This should give you the fastest possible report, but it will still take a bit of time for the data to flow through the system.

Hi Ben,
Im assuming the ability to set the refresh rate to every 30 seconds and trigger to every refresh is only available in the latest version of web reports, i’m using 7.2.5 and the minimum refresh rate is limitted to 1 minute and there is no option to set the trigger to every refresh. I suppose the only option would be to upgrade?

Hey Paul,
It should be all versions… It is the second option when you set up your scheduled activity: “Generate report on every refresh”
