E-Mail a single attached report (not a report for every row of the report)

How do you e-mail a single attached report? I'm getting a multiple e-mails for each row of my report and only want a single e-mail with an attached report.

 

From the e-mail tool description: Sends e-mails for each record with attachments or e-mail generated reports if desired <<< This what I want to do

@Eric227 You would use a render or output tool to save your report (as any filetype) and then use a sample tool to limit the data to 1 record into the email tool. Then you would setup the attachment in the email tool to grab the file that will be written out. I suspect you could do something like write the file to %temp%File.yxdb in your output/render tool and then reference that (%temp%File.yxdb) in the email tool and it should grab it successfully.

Hi Patrick,

 

Thanks for your explanation.

One question: how do I limit the data to 1 record into the email tool by using the sample tool?

 

Thanks
