A PDF report preserves the dashboard's current analytical context, including its selected: * Time range * Filters * KPIs * Portlets * Charts * Tables * Visible data To generate a PDF report: **1. Open the required Aggregate Dashboard** **2. Select the appropriate time range and filters** **3. Click Print or Export to PDF** **4. Review or save the generated PDF file** PDF reports are useful for sharing dashboard results with management, business teams, technical teams, customers, or other stakeholders. ![Reports (manual): PDF Report](https://mintcdn.com/germain-ux/BTxCucYnGj_ffpsA/images/main/reports/image-20240104-215154.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=BTxCucYnGj_ffpsA\&q=85\&s=400233e15b55e7491c15a94c1e440cae) ## CSV Export Export the visible data from a portlet or supported dashboard to a CSV file. CSV exports provide the underlying values in a structured format that can be opened in: * Microsoft Excel * Google Sheets * Business-intelligence tools * Data-analysis applications * Scripts and other processing tools To export data to CSV: **1. Open the dashboard containing the required data** **2. Apply the appropriate time range, filters, measure, and pivots** **3. Locate the relevant portlet** **4. Click the Export icon** **5. Open or save the generated CSV file** The exported file reflects the data and analytical context currently displayed in the portlet. ![Reports (manual): CSV Export](https://mintcdn.com/germain-ux/BTxCucYnGj_ffpsA/images/main/reports/image-20240104-215434.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=BTxCucYnGj_ffpsA\&q=85\&s=098bc16da9692e875b866e4823db5160) ![Reports (manual): CSV Export, image 2](https://mintcdn.com/germain-ux/BTxCucYnGj_ffpsA/images/main/reports/image-20240104-215549.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=BTxCucYnGj_ffpsA\&q=85\&s=74e59b2b5357e8c0a3200de350d061dc) ## HAR and JSON Exports GermainUX can export browser, HTTP, and user-session information for detailed technical investigation. A **HAR file**—HTTP Archive—contains information about browser network activity and HTTP requests. It can help developers, support teams, and application owners investigate: * Slow requests * Failed requests * API errors * Server response times * Request and response details * Network activity associated with a user action * Dependencies involved in a user experience issue Available exports include: | Export | Description | | - | - | | **Entire user session to HAR** | Exports the HTTP activity captured throughout the selected user session. | | **Entire user session to JSON** | Exports the session and facts collected from all configured KPIs in a structured JSON file. | | **Selected time range to HAR** | Exports the relevant HTTP activity from a specific period within the user session. | | **User click to HAR** | Exports the HTTP activity associated with a specific user click. | | **HTTP request to HAR** | Exports the details of an individual HTTP request. | The available options may depend on the monitored application, captured data, dashboard, and GermainUX configuration. ### Export a User Session To export information from Session Replay: **1. Open the required user session** **2. Select the entire session, a specific time range, a user click, or an HTTP request** **3. Open the available export actions** **4. Select Export to HAR or Export to JSON, as applicable** **5. Save the generated file** Exporting a focused time range or individual user click helps reduce unnecessary data and makes it easier to share the activity directly associated with an issue. ![Reports (manual): Export a User Session](https://mintcdn.com/germain-ux/BTxCucYnGj_ffpsA/images/main/reports/image-20231220-062152.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=BTxCucYnGj_ffpsA\&q=85\&s=7f7b15523981d7f661bbbd5373d1b997) To request HAR export support from another dashboard or GermainUX view, [contact GermainUX Support](/main/support.md). ## Automatic Reports GermainUX can automatically generate and distribute reports according to a configured schedule or condition. Automatic reports can be used to provide recurring information to: * Business owners * Application owners * Product teams * Support and operations teams * Management * Customers and other stakeholders Report automation can reduce manual reporting effort and ensure that recipients receive updated information consistently. See [Automatic Reporting](/main/reporting-automatic.md). ## Monitored File Download Files monitored by GermainUX can be downloaded on demand when file download is enabled and the user has the required permissions. This capability allows authorized users to retrieve relevant monitored files directly from GermainUX for investigation or offline analysis. See [File Download](/main/file-download.md). ## Additional Resources > **[Reports](/main/reporting-automatic.md)** > > Automatic reporting > **[AI](/main/ai-driven-insights.md)** > > Insights & Recommendations > **[Analytics](/main/analytics.md)** > > More Analytics Features > **[Automation](/main/automation.md)** > > More Automation Features > **[Integrations](/main/monitoring.md)** > > Read more > **[Management](/main/management.md)** > > More Management Features ## Get Help > **[Contact GermainUX Support](/main/support.md)** > > The Germain Team can help you set this up. > **Can't find what you need?** > > Search all GermainUX docs with **Ctrl + K**, or use the feedback buttons at the bottom of this page to tell us what is missing.
