6 Next, use the File Type dropdown to select between file optimization preference: 

  • Optimize for Excel, Sheets, Numbers - creates a compatible file for Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, or Apple Numbers.
  • Optimize for CSV - creates a comma-separated values (CSV) file that allows data to be saved in a tabular format. 




7 Under the Send & Frequency section, use the dropdown to select between the following options of how and when you'd like your report sent:

  • Download Now - creates a report that can be opened immediately.
  • Email Now - sends the report as an email attachment immediately.

Then, under the Recurrence section, choose from the following:
