In the system example, we have created Building A and Building B with a number of identical rooms. We have also created a folder for the repeption area in Building A. In the Reception folder, we have created an analog value and a trend log that logs the temperature in the reception area. The value is connected to an alarm. A notification report that contains the log data is to be displayed in a web browser when a user manually triggers the notification.
We have created a variable triggered notification.
Variable triggered notification
We have created a notification report template. The notification report template functions as a template for how notification report content is displayed when the notification is triggered. For more information, see Notification Reports .
The template is configured to be displayed as a simple web page that lists the temperature data in an HTML table.

The trend report data is configured to display each log record as a new table row with two cells: Timestamp and Value.

We have created a variable triggered notification.
Variable triggered notification
The notification is configured to distribute the notification report as a write to file notification with the HTML file extension. The notification report is generated when a user manually triggers the variable triggered notification that uses the notification report template.
The file name in the notification specifies the file type that is to be generated
The file is accessed from the 'Notification Files' folder of the 'System' folder and is opened in a web browser.
