How to schedule a Snapshot to send via email

  1. On the dashboard you wish to send a Snapshot for, click Share.

  2. Now, click Email.

    1. If prompted, you will need to create a sharing link for the dashboard.

  3. In the Send to field, enter the email address you want to send the dashboard snapshot to.

  4. In the Every field, select the frequency you prefer: Week or Month.

    1. Selecting Week means you can control the days of the week you'd like to schedule your Snapshot and the time you'd like it posted in your channel.

      select the individual days of the week you'd like your dashboard to be sent to Slack
    2. Selecting Month gives you the option of posting on the First day of the month or First Monday.

  5. Complete the configuration as preferred, then click Create.

How to accept the invitation to receive Snapshots

When a recipient is added to Snapshots for the first time, they will receive an email invitation from notifications@snapshots.geckoboard.com.

To receive future Snapshot emails of the dashboard, the recipient must first:

  1. Accept the invitation by clicking the Accept invitation button within the email.

  2. In the new window that opens, click Confirm to fully subscribe to the Snapshot emails.

If the recipient doesn't see this email in their inbox, please have them check their spam folder.
