Hello ,

We are in Y release.

Scheduled/On-Demand PDF reports open with Error: Export failed using PARExport server.

This was working before Y upgrade.

Thank you and appreciae support with this request.

Have you checked if all plugins are updated to the most recent version?

I assume you saw this one already, since it's the first result when you ask google: https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB2139716

We faced similar issue in our environment and it was resolved by updating Platform Analytics, UI Builder and Data Visualization plugins to latest version.

Go to System Definition -> Plugins and look for Platform Analytics 'sn_app_analytics_w', Data Visualizations 'sn_par_vis_base' and 'sn_ui_builder' plugin and update to latest version. Clear browser cache, logout and login again and try it.

If it does not work, refer below knowledge article and check for system property glide.par.export.host configuration

Thank you both for your input.

we verified all properties/plugins etc mentioned , but still issue existed, and contacted SN support.

They responded that the issue was on their "parexport" servers and restarting servers fixed the issue.

Thank you and appreciate the support from SN community.
