Document Stats Report Macro

Overview

The Document Stats Report is used to display a count of the content currently in each workflow state.

This workflow information in the reporting columns will by default include all the workflow states in the current space (except for the space homepage).

One or more filters can be added to the document-stats-report macro, for example, to filter the display to specific states or the states in one or more workflows.

Once added to a page, the report macro will dynamically update the count of the states.

Permissions

Anyone can see this report.
