Using the Mobile App to View In-Document Analytics Reports


An In-Document Analytics report is an interactive report that is designed for offline analysis. It contains all the data and JavaScript® within the HTML output file. Packaging the data and the interactive functions in the HTML file also makes the output highly compressible for email and transparent to security systems.

Viewing In-Document Analytics reports on mobile devices is only possible if JavaScript is enabled in the web browser. Some browsers may function differently depending on the operating system. The WebFOCUS mobile app makes it easy to view any In-Document Analytics report on any iOS or Android-based device.
