Module 5 · From model to delivery Lesson 13 of 15
Publishing, refresh and gateways
A published report is only as good as its refresh. Schedule it, watch the first few runs, and know how the service reaches a database that sits behind a firewall.
Worked example
A scheduled refresh at 7am needs the gateway credential to be entered correctly once; a failed refresh sends a mail and the first you hear of a stale report is a decision made on old numbers.
Your practice task
Publish one report, schedule a refresh, and confirm it succeeded by checking the history.
Do this before moving on. Reading a solution teaches the shape of it; typing it teaches you.
Key takeaway
A published report is only as good as its refresh. Schedule it, watch the first few runs, and know how the service reaches a database that sits behind a firewall.
