Q: Purge scheduled reports

[mkusterm]

Can anyone advise on the proper way to

automate removal of scheduled report output files?

 

I have a custom web app that allows users to

schedule their own reports, and I place the

reports on the contentfiles folder. I would like to

have the jasper server automatically remove reports

to avoid a buildup.

 

Is there a way to do this by limiting either the

amount of space, number of reports, or amount of

time a generated report file resides on the server?

 

thanks,

mike

We do not have a process to do this today. You could do it through a separate process using the JasperServer API.

Hi Mike,

 

Pls could you explain how you implemented this, I was planning on writing a java program that would access the Creation Date of the report and then delete depending on how old it was however when I tried to extract the date it comes out as null.
