Device42 Recommended DOQL and Reports

---

This repository includes our SQL files for DOQL, scripts, and Report/Dashboard files that are recommended by the team to access common and useful data discovered by Device42.

These files come in three forms and are intended to be used in different ways:

• .sql files found in "Recommended DOQL" and "Affinity Group DOQL". These .sql files can be downloaded or copied then added as Saved DOQL or DOQL to use.
• .wr and .wrc files found in "Pre-Defined Reports", "Pre-Defined Dashboards", and "Insights". These are intended to be uploaded to Advanced Reports, create a new folder if one doesn't exist and use the "Upload" option to navigate to the import file.
• .json files found in "Script JSON Examples". These can be used along with the starter.py script and usage instructions below.

Device42 Report Files

---

The .wr and .wrc files in order to use reference names and locations. If the report file is uploaded to a different location or a Chained report that references a report that was renamed you may need to Edit the report in Advanced Reporting to point to the directory and report names modified in your instance.

If the directories and report names are kept the same as this github you will be able to use them consistently without additional modifications.

Device42 Upload Reports

---

For .wr files in order to use them select the "User Defined Reports" folder or create a new custom folder, click the "burger" menu to the right in line with the folder when selected, this will open a drop down to "Upload" the report .wr or .wrc file.

.wrc files are chained reports, they will link to other reports that will be required to upload as well. When running a chained report if any is missing an error will be included that mentions any required reports if they do not exist. .wrc files will refer to other .wr files in the same directory in most all cases. ​
