Lite Guide

Use this guide when your goal is to run already-authored dReveal reports locally through the Lite runtime.

Who this is for​

  • end users who need to execute reports on their own machines
  • small teams that do not need a centralized reporting portal

Before you start​

  1. Confirm that the report files already exist.
  2. Confirm that your machine can access the required data source.
  3. Confirm that the Lite browser runtime is installed.
