How to follow report usage in Report Library ?
Hello,

We need to be sure that reports (generated through report caster and stored in report library) have been opened by users for which they are intended.

Since they open these reports by clicking on the link given in RC email, is there a mean to log it ? (user, report, time)

Moreover, is there any way of "signing" a report when stored ? (or a workaround to do so)

Thanks for your help on these 2 items,
Frenz

The only way I can see of doing this is intercepting the Rlibrary call, either by looking at the java calls made by putting the trace on, or putting a read trigger on the repository database.

Either way it would be a big risk and you would have to ask yourself: Is it worth it?
