Workflow/UX requests for automations

Feature
1

We’re getting into automations now. Specifically, I’m starting to send reports to groups in my company. I’m starting to wish for a smoother UI:

  • I’ll be sending the same report to multiple groups, customized for that group. I’d like to have a starting point of duplicating an already-configured report so all I have to do is change the report name, email and report parameter

  • If I want to save state in the UI while I’m creating a report - let’s say I want to enable it so I get the ‘Trigger Now’ button for testing - Update automation kicks me out of editing the automation and I have to click back into it before I can continue :frowning:
    Another use case is that I’m adding the key/value parameter pairs to the report. Saving that dialog kicks me out of editing the automation :angry:

  • From the automation give me an easy option to get to the report its running. The use case here is

    • double-checking which report it is
    • needing to review the parameter options/values to add or change
    • run a quick check of what the report is currently showing without having to run the automation (and potentially spam people you didn’t want to disturb)
