Hello,

 

I'm scheduling some reports for my customer and the report filename comes with the serial number.

 

I'd like to know if anyone was able to put the hostname on the Output Profile for the e-mail subject comes with the hostname.

 

Regards,

hi,

is it a predefined report ? if so, which one ?


L.E. after re-reading your ask, i've noticed that you want the hostname in the output profile/mail that is being sent to the user. is that the hostname of the device or FAZ that you need ?

havent tried it but what you can do is create an output profile with different subject values/hostnames if the client dont want to find this info in the report.

although, if i recall correctly the generated reported attached in the email has the device name and vdom
