Build a quality report
Goal
You'll produce a data-quality summary for a slice of your run history — the overall pass rate, total and failing run counts, a pass/fail trend over time, and the validations with the most failures — and export it for a monthly review or an audit.
Prereqs
- Any role that can view results (viewer and above).
- At least one validation run in the workspace — see Create and run a validation.
Steps
Open the Reports page
- Open Validations and select Reports in the page header (the page lives at
/validations/reports; an old/reportsbookmark still lands there). Reports is a focused page for digests and exports, so it has no sidebar entry of its own. - The page loads an all-time summary for the active workspace: Pass rate, Total runs, and Failing runs cards, a Pass / fail trend chart, and a Worst validations list. A run counts once, however many assets it checked, so for the same dates Total runs matches the dashboard's Total runs and its department breakdown.
Scope the report
Every control writes to the URL, so a scoped report is bookmarkable and survives a refresh or a shared link.
- Status — restrict to Pass or Fail runs, or All.
- From / To — an inclusive run-time window. Set these to last calendar month for a monthly digest.
The cards, the chart, and the export all recompute against the scope, so the numbers, the chart, and a downloaded file always describe the same set of runs.
Drill into a failing validation
Worst validations ranks the validations with the most failing runs in scope. Click one to open Results filtered to that validation's failing runs in the same date window, then open any run to see which rules failed and why.
Export the report
- Export → CSV or Excel (.xlsx) downloads the scoped result rows — the same export as the Results page. See Export results for the columns and the 50,000-row cap.
- Export → Print / Save as PDF opens the browser print dialog; choose Save as PDF for a clean snapshot of the report (navigation and page chrome are stripped) to drop into a deck or email.
Verify
- The three metric cards, the trend chart, and the worst-validations list render.
- Setting Status to Fail drops the pass rate to 0 % and Total runs counts only failing runs.
- Export → CSV downloads a
validation-results-*.csvscoped to the current filters.
