Validating Reports with the Validator Tool

The Validator tool checks report integrity, identifies missing variables and widgets, and offers the option to update or delete affected widgets.

The Validator tool is a useful tool for checking the integrity of your report by identifying and pointing out any variables that are no longer available within your widgets. It can be used when creating new reports using existing reports or when copying and pasting widgets between reports.

After identifying missing variables, you can manually update or delete the affected widgets, then use the tool's refresh function to recheck for missing variables. Once all missing variables have been addressed, the Validate button will disappear.

Using the Validator

Validating New Reports

To use the Validator tool, begin by creating a new report using an existing report as a template or by copying and pasting widgets between reports. When the Validate button appears, click on it to open the Validator tool menu.

This menu displays any missing variables and the widgets they are missing from, allowing you to identify and address any issues before finalizing your report.
