Creating a Download-only Report

Download-only reports don’t have any table of contents or preview options. It is a simple report description with information about the attached file, and an option to download it.

Reports on your site can be made up of content with all kinds of formats - one of the options is a download-only report.

These reports don’t have any table of contents or preview options. It is a simple report description with information about the attached file, and an option to download it.

For download only reports, files appear in usual Attachments panel on the right-hand side. They also feature beneath the report description, as this screenshot shows.
