Reports

Fig includes a server-side reporting framework that generates printable HTML reports. Administrators select a report, supply parameters, and open the result in a new browser tab where they can print or Save as PDF using the browser print dialog.

Reports are administrator only and are compiled into Fig.Api—users cannot add reports at runtime. The Blazor web client only knows report metadata (id, name, category, description, parameters)—all data access and HTML rendering happen on the API. Report results respect the caller’s ClientFilter; clients (and client-tagged events) outside that regex are excluded.

Built-in reports

Clients & users (original)

ReportCategoryParametersContents
User ActivityUsersUser, From, ToLogins, setting changes, restarts, and other authenticated actions
Setting HistorySettingsClient, Instance (optional), SettingCategory, markdown description, current value (nested table for data grids), and historical changes
Client StatusClientsClient, Instance (optional)All settings grouped by category (secret values shown as ******)
Client HistoryClientsClient, Instance (optional), From, ToRegistrations, configuration changes, and events
Client UptimeClientsClient, Instance (optional), From, ToAvailability (online when any run session is active), outages, peak concurrent sessions, run session log

The Client Uptime report treats the client as available whenever at least one run session is online. Redundant instances of the same client therefore do not create downtime when one of them stops; individual session starts and ends appear in the Run Session Log, while Outages list only periods with zero active sessions.

Security & compliance

ReportCategoryParametersContents
Security AuditSecurityFrom, ToFailed logins, invalid client secrets, secret/password/user lifecycle, and configuration changes
Configuration InventoryComplianceClient (optional), Secrets OnlyFleet inventory of setting flags (secret, externally managed, classification, env-specific, etc.) without secret values
Access & PrivilegeSecurityFrom, ToUsers with role, client filter, classifications, login/fail counts
Secret HygieneSecurityClient (optional)Aged secret settings, previous client-secret window, API secret-rotation state (values always masked)
Externally Managed OverridesComplianceFrom, To, Client (optional)Externally managed inventory and operator override events

Operations

ReportCategoryParametersContents
Fleet Health & AvailabilityOperationsFrom, To, Client (optional), Min SessionsLive health/session debt plus period uptime rollup across clients
Registration DriftOperationsFrom, ToDefinition-changed registrations, new instances, clients with no recent registration
Restart & Live-Reload DebtOperationsFrom, ToSessions needing restart or with live reload off; historical restart activity
Client VersionOperationsFrom, ToConnected clients with app/Fig versions; Fig version pie; multi-version apps
Instance / Environment MatrixOperationsClientSetting-value matrix across all instances of a client; divergence highlights
Deferred / Scheduled WorkOperationsFrom, ToPending/overdue deferred changes, schedule events, deferred imports
Time Machine ActivityOperationsFrom, ToCheckpoint create/apply/note activity
Import / Export ActivityOperationsFrom, ToExport/import/deferred-import event history

Analytics

ReportCategoryParametersContents
Change AnalyticsAnalyticsFrom, To, Client (optional)Top changers, daily volume, externally managed share, unchanged settings
Blast RadiusAnalyticsClient, Setting, Include Group MembersClients/settings affected via groups; live sessions; recent related changes
Anomaly / Quiet PeriodAnalyticsFrom, ToSpike detection vs prior baseline; clients that went quiet
Stale ConfigAnalyticsFrom, To, Stale DaysSettings unchanged for N days; silent/orphaned clients
Incident Correlation PackAnalyticsClient, From, ToChronological ops narrative for a client window with outages

Integrations & platform

ReportCategoryParametersContents
Webhook DeliveryIntegrationsFrom, ToConfigured hooks vs sends; zero-send hooks; session-flap noise context
Custom Action OutcomesIntegrationsFrom, To, Client (optional)Execution counts, success rate, failures, slowest actions
Setting Groups CoverageComplianceGroup (optional)Group membership and value divergence across members
Lookup UsageComplianceLookups used by settings vs unused; client-defined flag
Fig Platform Self-ReportPlatformAPI nodes, feature gates, inventory counts, event-log volume

Optional Client parameters support an All clients choice in the Reports UI.

Using reports

  1. Sign in as an administrator.
  2. Open Reports from the main navigation.
  3. Select a report from the left list.
  4. Fill in the required parameters (dropdowns are provided for users, clients, settings, and groups where applicable).
  5. Click Generate Report.
  6. The HTML report opens in a new tab. Use Print / Save as PDF (or the browser print dialog) to export.
tip

Allow pop-ups for the Fig web origin so the generated report tab can open.

Security

  • Only users with the Administrator role can list or generate reports.
  • Secret settings are listed on the Client Status report with values shown as ****** (never the real value). Secret columns inside data grids are masked the same way.
  • Setting History shows <SECRET> placeholders for secret settings instead of real values.
  • Inventory, hygiene, groups, and matrix reports never render real secret values.
  • Event history values that were already stored as placeholders remain masked.

AI features (requires Fig Assistant)

When Fig Assistant is enabled and configured under Configuration:

  • Most reports show an optional Include AI analysis switch (off by default). When enabled, Fig Assistant receives the report’s data (not inventing extra facts) and inserts an AI Analysis section after Parameters, with a disclaimer that AI can be wrong. If the LLM call fails, the report is still returned without that section. Leave the prompt blank for a short generic summary.
  • An AI Report appears in the catalogue (category AI). You supply a free-form prompt; Fig Assistant gathers data with read tools and returns structured sections (summary cards, markdown, tables, charts, timelines) that Fig renders like other reports. The report title is chosen by the AI. This report is hidden when Fig Assistant is disabled.

AI-assisted generation can take longer than a normal report.

Output format

Version 1 supports HTML only. Additional formats (PDF, Excel, CSV) are reserved for future versions; the API already accepts a format field defaulting to Html.

When you print or save as PDF, each page includes a footer with Generated by Fig and the generation timestamp on the left, and the current and total page numbers on the right (supported in Chrome, Edge, and Safari). In the browser print dialog, turn off the browser’s default headers and footers so they do not duplicate Fig’s footer.
