For example, the following watch generates a PDF report and emails the report every hour:

<1> Configure at least one email account to enable Watcher to send email. For more information, refer to {ref}/actions-email.html#configuring-email[Configuring email accounts].
|
|
<2> An example POST URL. You can copy and paste the URL for any report.
|
|
<3> Optional, default is `40`.
|
|
<4> Optional, default is `15s`.
|
|
<5> User credentials for a user with permission to access {kib} and the {report-features}. For more information, refer to <<secure-reporting>>.

[NOTE]
|
|
====
|
|
*Reporting* is integrated with Watcher only as an email attachment type.
|
|
|
|
The report generation URL might contain date-math expressions that cause the watch to fail with a `parse_exception`. To avoid a failed watch, remove curly braces `{` `}` from date-math expressions and URL-encode characters.
|
|
For example, `...(range:(%27@timestamp%27:(gte:now-15m%2Fd,lte:now%2Fd))))...`
|
|
|
|
For more information about configuring watches, refer to {ref}/how-watcher-works.html[How Watcher works].
