hi, dev building Shaper here. I agree re sending reports vs dashboards. Many users use Shaper mostly as UI to filter data and then download a pdf, png or csv file to use elsewhere. We are also currently working on functionality to send out those files directly as messages using Shaper's task feature.

It would be a game changer, very interesting to see this grow. How did you get your PDF generation so good?

happy to hear that! pdfs are generated in a headless chrome in the same docker container as shaper itself using chromedp.
