Restrict export recipients and frequency

As an admin of a Sigma organization, you can configure export settings for users in your organization.

You can restrict the available frequency options and restrict the available recipients of exports:

  • Restrict the frequency of scheduled exports.
  • Define authorized domains that can receive emails, Google Sheets, and Google Drive exports.
  • Restrict email recipients so that users can only email exports to other members of their Sigma teams.

If no domains are authorized, or the teams restriction is disabled, users can export reports to any recipients.

Requirements

  • Only users assigned the Admin account type can configure export settings.

To restrict the frequency options available to users when scheduling exports, do the following:

  1. Open the Administration portal.

  2. Go to Exports, then select the Settings tab.

  3. For Export frequency, click Edit.

  4. Turn on the Restrict export frequency switch, then configure the frequencies to restrict. For example:

    • Choose to restrict daily exports to multiple times per day, every 30 minutes. This option prevents users from scheduling an export that runs more than once every 30 minutes per day.
    • Choose to restrict daily exports to multiple times per day, every 8 hours. This option prevents users from scheduling an export that runs more than once every 8 hours per day.
    • Choose to restrict daily exports to once per day. This option prevents users from scheduling an export that runs more than once per day.

    When this option is enabled, users cannot configure custom cron schedules.

  5. Click Save.

Existing export schedules are unaffected by this restriction. Select the Scheduled exports tab to review existing export schedules in your organization that might be occurring more frequently than wanted. See Manage organization schedules.

To restrict the recipients of exports to only users and email addresses from authorized domains:

  4. To add new or modify existing domains, click Edit.
