Specify "Period" parameter when generating report export using xtk.report

Hello!

I'm automating some Message Center reports, using this as a basis:

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/campaign-classic/using/automating-with-workflows/use-cases/monitoring/sending-a-report-to-a-list.html?lang=en

I'm specifically looking at the "Message Center Service Level" report, and I'm getting a basic PDF generated using this code:

var reportName = "messageCenterQualityOfService"; var path = "/home/customers/specsavers/incoming/Temp/mcqos.pdf"; var exportFormat = "PDF"; var _ctx = <ctx _context="global" _reportContext="messageCenterQualityOfService" /> var isAdhoc = 0; xtk.report.export(reportName, _ctx, exportFormat, path, isAdhoc);

This generates a report based on the default parameters, "Channel", "Execution Instance" and "Period".

Can someone help me set the "_ctx" parameter so that I can generate the report for different "Periods". e.g. "1 week view" via JavaScript?

Thank you!

Hello,

 

Is it possible to check the debug view to see the context elements/attributes (and so parameters/values) available?

Thank you, imicu.

 

I'm so sorry, how do I see the debug view of the report? It's an out-of-the-box report:

Many thanks!

I believe it is suppose to be 

ctx.vars.period = 336;

without underscore.


Hi and thanks for your help!

 

This causes the workflow to fail with the error:

24/08/2022 15:54:51	JST-310000 Error while compiling script 'WKF69644/js' line 7: ctx is not defined.

Any thoughts?

No luck, unfortunately. I'm following this guide which makes use of a JavaScript activity. According to the documentation, there is no "ctx" object that I can use in this activity, yet that seems to be the recommended solution. I'm very new to this aspect of Campaign, so struggling a bit!
