Reporting - Embedded Reports into Email Notification

I have a requirement to build an email notification report which will be sent out on a monthly basis by a scheduled job. In the notification amongst the HTML, the customer wants to embed reports rather than have them as attachments. Is this possible?

It was just in Preview.   When I attempted in my inbox, it was removed.   I looked to why, and it turns out that Outlook strips iframes out.


I tried <object><embed> as well and it stripped it.   Looks like we are back to querying the data and putting html and css in the email to send it as embedded.


Thanks Mike.



Think I'm going to go down the route of build everything onto a dashboard and downloading this to PDF manually and sending this out.


I'm glad I found this thread, I had posted one late last week with the same question, however, no one replied.



I really wish it was a simple as taking the png of a bar graph and embedding it into the email, however it does not seem to be the case.



Having an issue with report buy in, mostly they are being ignored.



Tom - what platform were you thinking of building the dashboard?
