- 3Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 4Test with one real statistics response and check the summary against the returned figures.
Questions about this workflow
Can the report compare usage with a baseline?
Only if the workflow is given the baseline data. Ably statistics provide usage data for the requested period, not an unstated comparison baseline.
Can I choose the reporting period?
