"View" Reporting

Is there a way to report on the columns that show up in each view in the system? I have to create some documentation around ours, but we have over 600 unique views, so it would be helpful to pull all the columns into a column(s) in a report.

There is, but it's not very good. There some documentation on it here for a more generic report:

https://one.workfront.com/s/document-item?bundleId=the-new-workfront-experience&topicId=Content%2FReports_and_Dashboards%2FReports%2FCustom_View_Filter_Grouping_Samples%2Fview-reporting-elements-used-reports.html

Specifically for a view though, it would just be "definition" rather than "view:definition", as you see it in column 4. So the code is literally

valuefield=definition

valueformat=HTML

You're right, it's not very informative. I'd like to see the same as Jon wants to see; a list of views and the columns displayed in those views.

I haven't found a way to do this though.

Same for layouts: in each layout, what filters, views and groupings are available for each object type? Because I cannot report on this I've had to resort to screenshots to compare them.
