Share and maintain your Apono reports

After creating reports to analyze your cloud access activities, you can distribute and maintain them. For each report, Apono enables you to perform the following actions:

• Download the report in multiple formats

• Share a link to the report data

• Schedule automated delivery to recipients

• Edit report settings including filters, formats, and schedules

• View filtered activity data directly in the Activity tab

• Delete unneeded reports

For example, you can create a report that tracks high-risk permission grants across your cloud resources, download it as a CSV for analysis, and schedule daily automated deliveries to your security team - ensuring timely oversight of sensitive access patterns.
