Default name of PDF export

[StephanBuerger]

Hi all,

Would it be possible to change the default name of an (PDF) export of a service?
The filename of each PDF-export is “report.pdf”. This is terrible.
I woul like this:

hostname_servicename_datetime.*

Hi @ricardoftribeiro
thank you.

Do you know how I can use variables/macros for the filename?

Best Regards,
Stephan

Not sure if that works there, but you can try something like:
$HOSTNAME$_$SERVICEDESC$_$SHORTDATETIME$.pdf

But time part uses : seperator, so no no for file name.
Service description might have illegal filename characters too.

EDIT:
I got the variables from notifications
When you edit a notification rule, you can add a list of all variables.

But the variables can not always / everywhere be used. I’m clueless where or where not.

Really don’t know if that works - I don’t think so.

On the reports sent by email you have this for example :

Maybe this could somehow help you.

Hi all,

thank you for your tips.
But it appears that the export can’t work with variables.
Kind Regards
