Accessing reports remotely

Before executing a schedule or test, you can enable an option so that you can access reports remotely from a web browser. When you make changes to a report, the changes are saved to the workspace where the workbench is running.

  2. To enable remote access to reports, select the Allow remote access from a web browser check box.
  3. To enable the remote control of schedule execution tasks, select the Allow control of schedule execution from the web browser check box.
  4. Optional: By default, the non-secure port number for web reports is 8080. If this port number is used by another service, you can type another port number.
