Creating a Data Set on the Data Sets Page

You can create a data set outside of the Report Builder on the Data Sets page, and then use that data set in multiple reports.

When you create a data set on this page, and then share the data set with other users, you or the other users can add the data set to a Shared data set in any report that you build.

For example, a CommCell administrator can create a shared data set that includes information about backup jobs, and then Tenant Administrators can add that shared data set to their reports and configure the reports to meet their specific needs.
