Best Delivery Mechanism for Nprinting reports

Hello

We have just installed Nprinting and we are looking at the best way to deliver reports to our users. Sending by mail and the Newstand don't really look like good solutions for us.

We are thinking of creating an Apache server or delivering using Sharepoint/Office 365 or Confluence and wondered if anyone here has gone down the same route for delivering reports.

Thanks

Colin

There is no specific sharepoint connector for distributing NP reports.
However, if you create network share on the sharepoint server and use that as an NPrinting folder "Destination" you can use that Destination folder for report distribution. The sharepoint server can use that share from which NP reports can subsequently be consumed via the sharepoint server.
See the link below regarding NPrinting Folder Destinations.

NOTE: it is critical that the NP service account has full read/write permission to distribute reports to the destination folder

@clarcombefmsb Lucas gave you a good work-around, the reporting functionality that is built-in to QlikSense SaaS can connect with OneDrive, but there are no plans to do the same with NPrinting, so delivering to a folder is likely your best bet.
