A report schedule is a weekly, recurring version of a PDF report: you pick a delivery day, a lookback window, and recipients, and Promptwatch generates and emails the report automatically. Schedules exist because most reporting is recurring: if you send a client the same dashboard PDF every Monday, the schedule should do it, not you.

How to create a schedule

Schedules are created from the same export modal as instant reports:
  1. Open the dashboard you want to send.
  2. Click Export.
  3. Switch to the Scheduled report tab.
  4. Configure the schedule and click Create schedule.

Schedule options

  • Deliver every: the day of the week the report goes out, Monday through Sunday.
  • Covering: the lookback window, the last 7, 14, or 30 days. The report always covers the window ending on the delivery day, so every edition is fresh rather than a fixed date range going stale.
  • Recipients: a checklist of the team members who receive the email, each labeled Owner or Member, with a search box once the list grows past five. Select at least one. Only organization owners and members who have access to the project are listed; viewers can see the data in the app but can’t receive scheduled emails.
  • Filters: a schedule prints the dashboard as saved at each delivery: its filters and each chart’s settings. Unsaved changes on screen aren’t included, so update the dashboard first. For a narrow report, such as “ChatGPT only, organic prompts, one monitor”, save those filters on a dashboard and schedule that one.
Promptwatch Export modal on the Scheduled report tab, showing the Recipients field and a live report preview. Reports are delivered by email in the early morning (06:00 UTC) on your chosen day, with the PDF attached. Each generated report also appears on the Reports page under PDF Reports, so there’s always a downloadable copy in the app.

Managing your schedules

Open Reports (press ⌘K, or Ctrl+K on Windows and Linux, and search for Reports, or use the View schedules link in the confirmation message after you create a schedule) and go to the Scheduled Reports tab. Each row shows the schedule type, cadence, filters, recipients, and the next run date. Deleting a schedule stops future deliveries; reports it already produced stay available. Promptwatch Scheduled Reports table with Type, Schedule, Recipients, and Next run columns for two dashboard report schedules. Two access rules to know:
  • Viewers can’t schedule: creating and managing schedules requires a member or owner role, since schedules push data out of the app.
  • Plan limits: the number of active schedules per organization depends on your plan. At the limit, creating another fails with a “schedule limit reached” message; delete an unused schedule to free a slot. If your plan doesn’t include custom reports at all, creating a schedule opens the upgrade prompt instead.

How sharing works

Sharing in Promptwatch is file-based: there are no public share links for reports. To share outside your team, download the PDF and send it, or add the stakeholder to your organization and put them on a schedule. Two options cover the common cases:
  • One-off sharing: create an instant report and check “Email me the PDF report once generated”, then forward it. See Creating a PDF report.
  • Recurring sharing: add the person as a recipient on a schedule, so they get every edition without you in the loop. See Team and roles for inviting people with the right access level.
For raw data instead of a formatted PDF, use CSV exports: see Can we export responses?. After you create your first schedule, check the Next run column to confirm the timing, and expect the first email on your chosen delivery day.
