Reporting settings

Cayosoft Administrator Reporting settings define default folder paths to store exported data\HTML reports and default rule output type and style. You can choose whether to store the data locally on the Cayosoft Administrator Service computer or use File Share (SMB) to store the data in Azure storage or network file share.

The Cayosoft Administrator Service uses the Local System account. So, if you use file shares to read data source files in rules or rules create output reports, and store them in file shares, you need to select and configure File Share (SMB) storage type in Home > Configuration > Settings > File Storage and Reporting.

Reporting settings

Local Storage type

File Share (SMB)

You can store the rules' data source files and output reports in Azure storage or a network file share.

If you want to store all the data in Azure storage, you should perform these steps first:

1. Create a storage account - Azure Storage

2. Create Azure file share

3. Get the script that mounts the Azure file share

4. Copy the required parameters from the script to the settings in the table below. Script example:

$connectTestResult = Test-NetConnection -ComputerName storageaccount.file.core.wi if ($connectTestResult.TcpTestSucceeded) {
# Save the password so the drive will persist on reboot
cmd.exe /C "cmdkey /add:`"storageaccount.file.core.windows.net`" /user:`"localhos # Mount the drive
New-PSDrive -Name Z -PSProvider FileSystem -Root "\\storageaccount.file.core.wind
} else {
Write-Error -Message "Unable to reach the Azure storage account via port 445. Che
}

The settings in the table will be specified based on the script.
