Scheduling emailed reports in Posit Connect

Scheduling reports

R Markdown reports and Jupyter Notebooks that are published with source code can be re-executed by Posit Connect at scheduled intervals.

To schedule content to be run and/or emailed in Posit Connect, please follow these instructions:

• Publish the document you wish to schedule to Posit Connect. Note that it must have the following properties:
  
  • You must choose "Publish Source Code" when deploying your document
  • The document cannot be scheduled if it contains Shiny components*
• Open your content in the Posit Connect dashboard and click on the Settings icon.
• Select the "Schedule" tab.
• Select the schedule output, start date, and frequency you prefer.
• Select the "Send email after update" option
• The owner of the content will always be notified unless they opt-out. Content output can also be sent to:
  • All collaborators
  • All viewers
  • Named additional recipients

  Note: By default the rendered content will be attached and RStudio Connect will generate a standard subject line and email body. Visit the Posit Connect User Guide for more information on how to generate custom email output.

• Click Save

* Shiny applications or R Markdown documents with a Shiny runtime (Shiny documents) cannot be scheduled. Shiny assets show the latest data each time they are refreshed.
