Using cloud app reports

Controls are provided with each table, including the User Summary Report and the Cloud App Summary.

  • Use the Find feature to restrict the information in the table.

    Enter up to 50 characters (special characters are not supported) and click Search (or Enter on the Cloud App and Cloud App User reports) to filter on:

    • Cloud App: application name or type
    • Cloud App User: user information
    • User Summary Report: user information
    • Cloud App Summary: application name, application type, or risk level

    Click Clear to remove your entry.

    Hint text is provided to explain which columns the search will consider.

  • Click Export to CSV to generate a comma-separated table (maximum of 10,000 rows) of the data. The Time Period and Find values become part of the query used by the export, even if the filters were not used to update the table.

    Exports include the app information provided by the Risk Level link.

    When you export from a table, the name of the export file depends on which view you are using.

    • When viewing by cloud app, the file is called cloudapps.csv.
    • When viewing by cloud app user, the file is called cloudappusers.csv.

    From the summary pages, the export file names are:

    • cloudapps_<app_name>.csv (User Summary)
    • cloudappusers_<user_name>.csv (Cloud App Summary).

    The date and time of the export is appended to the file name.

    The default time for the export to complete is 30 seconds. If the export times out, consider updating the filters to report on less data.

  • Use the paging options below the table to navigate to other report pages.
  • Use the arrows next to column headings to change the sort order of each report.
  • Click the icon in the upper right of each chart to expand it and display it on it’s own page.
  • Click and drag the edge of table column headers to manually adjust the default column width.

Define delegated administrator access to cloud app reports on the Delegated Administration > Edit Roles page. Look for Access application reports under Reporting Permissions. This option gives administrators access to all tabs of the Application Reports page.

To support the ability to report on cloud applications, a Cloud Apps database is downloaded on a regular basis. The schedule defined for the Forcepoint URL Database download on the Settings > General > Database Download page is also used for the Cloud Apps database.
