Scheduled Data Discovery Dashboard Report Properties

This applies to: Visual Data Discovery

Specific properties control the behavior of scheduled dashboard reports. These properties are stored in zoomdata.properties.

Property	Required?	Description
`dashboard.scheduling.screenshot.png.height`	No	Identifies the height (in pixels) of the screenshot PNG file that will be sent. The default is 720 pixels.
`dashboard.scheduling.screenshot.png.width`	No	Identifies the width (in pixels) of the screenshot PNG file that will be sent. The default is 1280 pixels.
`dashboard.scheduling.screenshot.timeout`	No	Important: Specifies the timeout (in seconds) to take a screenshot for a dashboard email report. The default is 60 seconds. The time specified by this property must be less than or equal to the time set by the `screenshot.service.http.client.read.timeout.milliseconds` property. If you increase the value of this property, make sure that you increase the value of the `screenshot.service.http.client.read.timeout.milliseconds property` accordingly. Bear in mind that this property is specified in seconds, but the `screenshot.service.http.client.read.timeout.milliseconds` property is specified in milliseconds.
`mail.from`	Yes	Specifies the email address identifying where the email comes from.
`mail.login`	Yes	Specifies the email login to use to access the mail server.
`mail.password`	Yes	Specifies the password associated with the email login identified in the `mail.login` property.
`screenshot.service.http.client.connect.timeout.milliseconds`	No	Specifies the number of milliseconds that can elapse before Symphony stops trying to connect to the screenshot microservice client. The default is 10000 milliseconds.
`screenshot.service.http.client.read.timeout.milliseconds`	No	Specifies the number of milliseconds that can elapse before Symphony stops trying to read from the screenshot microservice client. The default is 60000 milliseconds. Note: If you increase the time set by the `dashboard.scheduling.screenshot.timeout` property, make sure that you increase the value of this property as well. The total time set by `screenshot.service.http.client.read.timeout.milliseconds` should always be greater than or equal to the time set by the `dashboard.scheduling.screenshot.timeout` property. Bear in mind that this property is specified in milliseconds, but the `dashboard.scheduling.screenshot.timeout` property is specified in seconds.
`screenshot.service.http.client.write.timeout.milliseconds`	No	Specifies the number of milliseconds that can elapse before Symphony stops trying to write to the screenshot microservice client. The default is 60000 milliseconds.
`sftp.host`	If enabled in your environment	Specifies the properties for SFTP location, credentials, and other settings to deliver scheduled self service reports and schedule dashboard reports to the defined SFTP location. sftp.host=localhost sftp.port=2222 sftp.user=uname sftp.password=pwd sftp.strictHostKeyChecking=no sftp.remote.directory=/tmp

In addition, JavaMail properties should be added to the zoomdata.properties file to identify the mail server and other mail properties required to use that server to send the scheduled dashboard (for example, mail.smtp.auth, mail.smtp.host, mail.smtp.port, mail.imap.host, and mail.imap.port). Symphony supports both IMAP and SMTP protocols. Complete descriptions of IMAP and SMTP protocol JavaMail properties can be found at these links:
