How to use Query Builder to generate configurable reports to analyse your data

Overview

ActiveNav Cloud has configurable reports to enable analysts to identify target data quickly and easily using the Query Builder from both the Analyst and Profile views. These views are built on the existing ActiveNav concepts of repositories, business units, geolocations, and scoring.

Generating a Report

Set your query parameters in Query Builder, then click the Generate Report button to submit the request.

PersonaUIReportStatisticsActiveNav Cloud displays the report viewer’s statistics page, showing a summary of your query results. This page allows you to quickly gauge if the results are in line with your expectations. To modify your query, click the Close button, change the query parameters, and regenerate your report.

The report viewer includes two additional tabs to help you decide if your query is providing you with expected results. The second tab is a grid of responsive objects or containers. This grid shows the first 1000 entries in the report.

The column control widget () in the top right of the screen allows you to select columns to show or hide.
Column Management

The third tab is accessible from the hierarchy icon () next to each item in the grid. Clicking this icon opens a map in the location of the selected object or container.

  • Refocus the map to a new location by clicking on a container circle.
  • Shift-left-click to open a details panel for the target container.
  • Zoom in by shift-left-clicking and dragging a rectangle around a target area. Alternatively, use the zoom control on the right-hand side of the map.
