In this article we cover the requirements for using WebReports.
What Is WebReports?
WebReports is a web based MVC application, with API functionality, that provides authorized users interactive and read-only access to VDM's Visualizations and Finished Reports using a compatible desktop or mobile browser.
Why Use WebReports?
WebReports accepts run-time parameters, and are executed against the selected Connection Profile in real-time offering "live" results. Visualizations and Finished Reports may be queued for later viewing and offer an effective "point in time" snapshot. Navigate, interact, filter, drill down and export Visualizations and Finished Reports without the need to deploy desktop clients or browser plugins.
