Reports

Overview

Prisma reports are structured documents that collect, process, and present data from the Zabbix server in a meaningful way, helping to analyze and interpret key information.

Reports are built using widgets, are periodically generated and automatically sent to all subscribers via their configured media types.

A card displays the selected Prisma user group for the report and the configured schedule. A report card can be in two states:

• Blue header and icons: User is not subscribed to this report.
• Green header and icons: User is subscribed to this report.

Create a new report

To create a new report, log in as (or impersonate) a Prisma user with the required permissions. Navigate to Reporting > Reports and click the blue plus button in the bottom right corner:

• Name: Name for the report.
• Storage duration mode: Choose between Unlimited (reports are kept indefinitely) or Limited duration (specify retention in days and hours).
• Prisma user group: Prisma user group defining the accessible data from Zabbix.

Click Create to finish.

Report configuration

General

In the General section, configure basic attributes such as Name and Description for the report.

• Monthly: At 00:00 on the first day of a month.
• Quarterly: At 00:00 on the first day of a quarter.

Widgets

In the Widgets section, create, configure, delete, and reorder widgets. Widgets define the structure and data of a report. At least one widget must be added to render a report.

Reports can also be manually rendered to generate a new report without waiting for the next scheduled run.
Click the + button above the list to open the Render now dialog. Options include:

• Report period: Time frame for the report. In addition to predefined periods, a Custom option is available with From and To date-time pickers.

  • Deliver only to me: Delivered only to the current user. Requires subscription.
  • Deliver to all subscribers: Delivered to all subscribers.
  • Do not deliver report to subscribers: Report is not delivered, only available for download.

• Render types: When choosing Do not deliver report to subscribers, select which render types to generate. Otherwise, all render types selected in the subscription are used.

Click Render now to create a new report. For more details, navigate to the Report details page by clicking the report.

The Report configuration shows the report config name, report start time, report end time, and render types.

The PDF rendering options section displays the configured problem limit, text item limit, and table of contents option.
