(v24) Placeholder Labels

Placeholder Labels

This applies to: Managed Dashboards, Managed Reports

New reports are automatically populated with placeholder labels for the page number and number of pages, but you can drag these and other metadata labels from the Labels window.

Each view parameter is also listed here so that you can display its value as a label on the report.

After you drag a label from the Labels window you can customize the text and combine it with your own, or you can add your own label component and set its text to include one of the placeholders:
