How to make a report visible under the Reports module for specific users.

[anushreem1]

Hi everyone,

I have created a report in ServiceNow and would like to make it visible under the Reports module in the left navigation for a specific group of users.
Could anyone please help me understand how I can achieve this requirement?

No, that’s not valid, mate. Reports are part of the Reporting module, so you cannot create a separate module under the Report application.

Instead, you can share the report or make it public so it is accessible to everyone, but it cannot be created as a module under the Reports application.

Hi @anushreem1 

Its not recommended that individual report you will show under report module.

Better share them access ,so that they can check the report

or create a Dashboard with that underlying reports -> User can access the dashboard

Share the Report with the Group

1. Navigate to Reports > View / Run in the Application Navigator.
2. Locate and open your newly created report.
3. Click the Sharing icon (the padlock symbol in the top-right corner of the report viewer) and select Share.
4. Choose the Groups and Users radio button.
5. Select the specific group you want to grant access to, click OK, and then Save

@anushreem1 

the report you create from Reports module are stored in sys_report table in backend

The only way to create report is Go to Reports Application -> Create New and then it starts showing in report_home.do

Many customers are already moving from legacy reporting to Platform Analytics.

I will recommend you to suggest the same to your customer
