PDF Export doesn't seem to work

I've created a number of reports in the new Analysis workspace.  Over the last few days, however, I have been unable to export them as PDF.  I get the 'success' message, but nothing ever arrives (and I have checked spam folder etc.)

Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks,

Chris

No, issue has been resolved with the July MR and I'm now getting scheduled reports when I expect them

Hi Chris, 

I have tried scheduling PDFs from workspace for the past few days and I an receiving them though not on time. Is it possible for the firewall to be a factor with you?

There are a number of issues including non delivery and delivery at wrong time to be fixed in the next maintenance release (today) under AN-125176.

Yeah you are right Andrew. Hopefully the delivery would function normally now. Do let me know your feedback. :)

So nothing actually arrives when you export it as a pdf, unless you are taking about sending the file via email for which I apologize in advance smiley

When you export the project as pdf you initially get this message.

Post this step, you need to wait for some time to get a message which says that your project can now be downloaded.

Once you click on the link (your project name), a pdf version opens in a different tab. But I think the download button here is broken. The file is saved in a unknown format.

Workaround: Open the project is crome and press "ctrl+p" (print command). Select the destination as "save as pdf" and hit go.

Works like a charm. Let me know how it goes.

Any updates on this?  I have requested PDF and CSV reports from Workspace yesterday (June 27) morning at around 7:00 am EST and they have not yet arrived - 28 hours later... Needless to say this makes it really hard to use this otherwise excellent tool for some common reporting stuff...

When I access my report in Workspace, it loads all tables properly (with a huge wait time), but when I request PDF report from it, I get pdf where some tables show message "unable to show visualization. Please add components to the data source..." I have tried deleting those tables and putting new ones in. Same visualization works in one workspace and does not work in another workspace.This is a big problem. The tool itself is excellent, but there are many unpredictable bugs and behaviors which makes it very unstable.

Seeing the same issue here apparently it's on a high priority fix with Engineering, make sure your account manager is aware to keep the pressure on to get these issues fixed.
