Feature · Dashboard Report Generator

A dashboard report generator that treats the schedule like the main event.

The dashboard tells the story on the screen. The report generator tells the story in the inbox at 8am. Strkr's generator produces PDFs for board meetings, HTML emails for daily reads, CSV extracts for analysts, and plain-text summaries for Slack, all built from the same live dashboard with one shared schedule and audience list.

What a report generator earns

A generator earns its spot by removing a weekly task.

The dashboard report generator earns its place when it replaces a recurring human task. A head of operations exports a dashboard every Monday to send to the leadership team. A revenue leader builds a board-ready PDF every month. A CFO forwards a KPI roll-up every quarter. Strkr's generator takes those tasks off the human and runs them on a schedule.

The Monday 8am send

A weekly digest the leaders expect.

The leadership team expects the weekly digest in their inbox at 8am Monday. Strkr's generator sends it. The operator who used to export, format, and forward every Monday reclaims the hour. The reader's expectation is met without a human remembering.

The month-end deck

A board-ready PDF with the right numbers.

The CFO ships a board PDF on the first of the month. Strkr's generator builds the PDF from the live dashboard, with the format tuned for board distribution: cover page, exec summary, metric tiles, and a one-page appendix. The CFO reviews and sends.

The quarterly roll-up

A quarter-close summary for the exec team.

The RevOps team ships a quarterly roll-up with the pipeline shape, the forecast call, and the big wins. The generator assembles the roll-up from the live dashboards and sends it as a multi-section PDF. The team reviews and distributes.

The daily CSV

An analyst-ready extract every morning.

Analysts need a CSV of the previous day's activity for their own modeling. The generator ships a CSV every morning at 6am to the analyst's inbox or a cloud storage drop. The analyst starts the day with the data already waiting.

The ad-hoc share

A one-off PDF for a prospect or partner.

A sales leader needs a PDF of pipeline shape for a prospect call. The generator produces a one-off PDF with watermarking and a time-boxed share link. The artifact is distributed without a human stripping sensitive data by hand.

The real-time alert

A short report when something changes.

When a threshold breaches, the generator ships a short report to the right owner with the breach context: the number, the comparison, the top three contributing records. The report arrives in the channel the owner reads first.

The formats the generator handles

Six output formats, one source dashboard.

A single dashboard carries one source of truth. The generator ships that truth in whichever format matches the reader's context. PDF for the board, HTML for the inbox, CSV for the analyst, plain text for Slack, image for Teams, and a hosted link for a one-off share. The maker configures once, the generator produces in whichever shape is needed.

PDF

Print-ready pages with real typography.

PDF output renders with page breaks, a cover page, page numbers, and a shared type scale. The reader prints to paper or distributes digitally. The PDF is accessible with real text layers, not a rasterized image.

HTML email

A preview-friendly inline read.

HTML email renders inline in Gmail, Outlook, and Apple Mail with the key tiles visible. The reader opens the inbox and sees the numbers without clicking through. A link to the live dashboard sits at the bottom for drills.

CSV

A machine-readable extract.

CSV output ships the underlying rows behind the dashboard tiles. Analysts load into their own tools. The CSV is well-formed with explicit column headers, UTF-8 encoding, and no trailing whitespace. It just works.

Slack summary

A plain-text read with a link.

Slack delivery ships a plain-text summary of the dashboard: three to five lines with the anchor numbers and the biggest change since last run. A link to the live dashboard carries the reader forward for drill-down. The channel does not get spammed with an image.

Teams card

An adaptive card in a Teams channel.

Microsoft Teams delivery ships an adaptive card with the key metrics and a Jump to dashboard button. The card renders cleanly in Teams channels and chats. The reader reads the card without leaving Teams.

Hosted link

A time-boxed public URL.

A hosted link renders the dashboard at a public URL with a watermark and an expiry. The maker shares the URL with a prospect, a partner, or an auditor. The link stops working after the window closes. Scrubbed-data variants are available for sensitive shares.

Scheduling that respects reality

Cadence controls that match how teams actually work.

A report generator with a crude cadence picker (daily or weekly) does not meet real teams. Strkr's scheduler respects time zones, work weeks, holiday calendars, and quiet hours. The report arrives when the reader needs it, not at 2am local because the server lives in a different continent.

Time zone aware

The reader's local time, not the server's.

The scheduler respects each recipient's time zone. A dashboard scheduled for 8am local arrives at 8am Eastern for the Eastern readers and 8am Pacific for the Pacific ones. The organization distributed across time zones gets a consistent experience.

Work-week calendars

Weekdays only if that is the rhythm.

A weekly report scheduled for every weekday respects the organization's work week. Weekends are skipped automatically. Teams on a Sunday-to-Thursday week configure accordingly. The scheduler does not blindly fire on Saturdays.

Holiday awareness

A holiday skip the maker does not have to maintain.

The scheduler reads the organization's holiday calendar. A report scheduled for the first of the month skips if the first lands on a holiday and lands on the next business day. The maker does not pause and un-pause schedules by hand.

Quiet hours

Alerts hold until the next window.

Non-critical reports and alerts hold during quiet hours (overnight for most organizations). Critical alerts page through regardless. The reader is not jolted awake by an informational digest. Quiet hours apply per recipient based on their calendar.

Rolling windows

Trailing 7, 30, 90 days without maintenance.

A report scheduled with a trailing window (last 7, 30, or 90 days) updates its own window automatically. The maker configures Trailing 30 once and the generator shifts the window every day. Period comparisons stay honest without manual edits.

Grace periods

A ten-minute data wait before send.

If a report is scheduled right after an overnight data refresh, the scheduler waits up to a grace period for the refresh to complete before sending. The reader never sees a stale number because the pipeline was two minutes late.

Audience targeting

The right report to the right reader.

A report that goes to everyone is a report that no one reads carefully. Strkr's generator supports audience targeting at user, role, and query level. The right reader gets the right view with the right permissions applied. The generator produces one shared artifact filtered differently per recipient.

Per-user versions

A rep sees their own book.

The generator applies row-level security per recipient. A rep receives the dashboard filtered to their accounts. The manager receives their region. The generator produces as many filtered versions as the audience requires without the maker shipping separate dashboards.

Role lists

All AEs, all managers, all admins.

Audience lists come from roles. All AEs receive the AE weekly, all managers receive the manager weekly, all admins receive the admin digest. New hires in a role land on the list automatically. Departures drop off automatically.

Saved queries

Users matching a condition.

Audience lists come from saved queries: users with over 50k in open pipeline, users whose team is above quota, users with a pending onboarding step. The list refreshes before every send. The audience is always current.

Opt-in and opt-out

Readers can self-manage their subscriptions.

Readers subscribe or unsubscribe from any recurring report. The maker sees the audience list reflect the opt-ins. The reader stays in control of their inbox. No one is forced into a daily email they do not want.

Share-by-default

A report with a shareable preview.

Every scheduled report includes a share preview the reader forwards. The forwarded view is a time-boxed link with its own permission check. Forwards do not leak data to unauthorized readers. The share path respects the dashboard's access rules.

Mute per audience

A segment pauses without affecting others.

An audience segment pauses receiving a report during a maintenance window or an off-season. Other segments continue. The maker does not clone the schedule to pause one group. Audience-level mute is a first-class control.

Branding and polish

A report that reads like your brand.

A report with a generic header does not read as the organization's. Strkr's generator wears each tenant's brand: logo, accent colors, type scale, and footer notes. The report arrives looking like it belongs to the organization that sent it, not like a tool's default template. For enterprises distributing to prospects or partners, the brand fit matters.

Logo and accent

The tenant's brand on every page.

The report carries the tenant's logo and brand accent color on every page. PDFs render the logo on the cover. Emails carry it in the header. Teams and Slack use the accent in the delivery card. The brand is consistent across formats.

Type scale

Font pairing that matches the brand.

The report uses the tenant's declared type pair for headings and body. The reader experiences a consistent typographic voice across the dashboard, the email, and the PDF. The brand feels designed, not stock.

Footer notes

Disclaimers and compliance stamps.

Each report format carries a configurable footer: compliance disclaimers, confidentiality notices, contact lines, legal footers. The admin configures once per tenant. Every report ships with the organization's required language.

Cover design

A board-ready first page.

PDF cover pages carry the dashboard title, the period, the audience name, and the preparer's identity. The cover sets context for the reader opening the attachment. Board-distribution PDFs look prepared, not auto-generated.

Section rhythm

Clear banding between content types.

Multi-section PDFs render anchors, trends, and drills in distinct bands with heading labels. The reader scans the document and locates the band they need. Dense reports stay legible under a thirty-second scan.

Accessibility

A report screen readers can parse.

PDFs render with real text layers, logical reading order, and alt text on charts. Screen readers walk the document. Compliance teams in regulated industries accept the output. Accessibility is a baseline, not a toggle.

Governance of the generator

Reports that pass an audit.

A report distributed by a human lands in an inbox and disappears. A report distributed by a generator leaves a trace. Strkr logs every send, every open, every forward, and every change to a schedule. Governance teams reconstruct exactly who received exactly what, when. The generator is as auditable as the dashboard that drives it.

Delivery audit

Every send recorded.

Every scheduled send lands in the audit log with the recipient, the time, the format, the dashboard version, and the delivery status. Compliance teams reconstruct the distribution for any report at any date. The log is queryable through the open API.

Open tracking

Who opened the email, who downloaded the PDF.

For reports delivered as HTML email or hosted PDF, the generator tracks opens and downloads. The maker sees the engagement data to decide whether a scheduled report earns its place. Low-engagement reports retire gracefully.

Change log

A trace of every edit to a schedule.

Every edit to a schedule (adding a recipient, changing the cadence, swapping the format) lands in a change log. Audit teams reconstruct how a schedule evolved. The maker catches unauthorized changes to a sensitive report.

Permission on send

A report never ships to someone who should not see it.

At send time the generator re-evaluates permissions. A recipient who lost access since the schedule was configured does not receive the report. The maker sees a note in the delivery log. Access revocations propagate immediately.

Encryption in transit

TLS on every delivery channel.

Email, webhook, and hosted-link deliveries use TLS in transit. PDF attachments on sensitive reports encrypt with a password sent through a separate channel. The report's security posture matches the dashboard's.

Retention control

How long reports linger.

Hosted PDF links and scheduled sends respect a retention window declared by the admin. After the window the artifact expires. The organization controls the lifespan of each report. Nothing accumulates indefinitely in a public link.

Common questions

What buyers ask about this feature.

What is the dashboard report generator in Strkr?

A built-in flow that produces PDFs, HTML emails, CSVs, Slack summaries, Teams cards, and hosted links from any live dashboard on a schedule or on demand. The generator shares its source with the live dashboard, so the number in the inbox and the number on the screen never diverge.

Can the generator respect row-level security per recipient?

Yes. The generator applies row-level permissions at send time. Each recipient receives a filtered version of the dashboard. One schedule serves an entire organization without the maker producing filtered copies by hand.

What formats does the generator produce?

PDF, HTML email, CSV, Slack summary, Microsoft Teams adaptive card, and hosted public link with watermark and expiry. All six are produced from the same live dashboard with one configuration.

Does it handle time zones and holidays?

Yes. The scheduler respects each recipient's time zone and the organization's holiday calendar. A weekly 8am report lands at 8am local for every recipient and skips holidays automatically.

Is the generator safe for regulated data?

Yes. Strkr is HIPAA compliant with a BAA available, pursuing SOC 2 Type II with completion targeted through 2026-Q4, GDPR, and CCPA compliant. Every delivery lands in an audit log. Permissions re-evaluate at send time. Encryption in transit applies across every channel.

Can readers opt out of a scheduled report?

Yes. Readers manage their subscriptions through a self-serve surface. They opt in or out of any recurring report. The maker sees the audience list reflect the opt-ins. No one is forced into a daily email they do not want.
