Creating and Editing Reports
If you're logged in as an editor (or a user with editing rights), you're able to create and edit reports.
Add a new report
To add a new report, select + Create New from the home page.

After selecting + Create New, you'll be asked to select the starting point for building your report. You can start with a pre-designed report from the Examples or select Start with a blank report to build an report from scratch:
Examples. Selections in the Examples category are finished reports, with data loaded and charts configured using that data. Examples are great to add to your workspace and use as reference or inspiration.
Start with a blank report. Select Start Blank if you want to start with a blank slate.
After selecting your starting point, the report creation wizard will walk you through creating your report. You'll provide a title, description, color theme, and font, and then select Create Report to create your report. (Alternatively, you can select Skip Setup to create your report with default settings.)
Once your report is created, you'll be taken to the draft version of the report. You're now ready to edit the report to add your data table and design your story.
Edit a report
You make changes to a draft version of the report (the draft report) using an in-browser interface called the editing panel. Only users with editing rights can access the editing panel.
Accessing the editing panel
To access the editing panel from the home page, select Edit on the report.

To access the editing panel from a published report, hit your Esc key.
Overview of a draft report
Changes to a report are made to a draft version of the report. If you see the editing panel, you know you are in the draft report. The editing panel is located on the left side of the draft report. Changes made and saved in the editing panel are immediately reflected in the draft report.

You design your report using the editing panel. You add data to your report from the data drawer. You share your report (or report changes) by clicking the Sharing button.
Duplicate a report
To duplicate a report, click the Duplicate Report button at the top of the editing panel. (Alternatively, you can click the Duplicate Report button from report Settings menu or from the home page.) Next, give your new report a title and select Duplicate. Once the new report is created it will open as a draft version, ready for you to edit and share.

Delete a report
To delete a report, open Settings & Themes and click the Delete Report button. (Alternatively, you can click the Delete Report button from the report Settings menu or from the home page.) Then confirm that you want to delete the report.
Deleting a report cannot be undone.
