RH 2022.1.188 : Automatic report generation

Hello everyone, I would like to know if it is possible to generate reports (unused files, broken links, ...) and export them in tabular format. All this needs to be done via script (without opening the interface).
I'm using powershell to code an entire help build system (from Jira tickets to server updates) and I need these reports generated by RH.
Thanks for your help and have a nice day !

I have never seen this question asked before, never mind seen a solution. I doubt there is a solution as generating those reports depends on the settings applied in the UI.

 

You could try Support but I would expect them to say something on the lines of "use the product as designed".

You were right, Peter. After contacting support, I'm no further ahead. The software is not designed for this.
Thanks for your reply 😉

Hello. No, they didn't. But the conversation was about generating reports to do post-processing (without using the interface) and using PowerShell. They told me about the possibility of using JavaScript, but that didn't really answer my question, because from what I understood, you have to open the interface to run these scripts.
Anyway, I solved my problem by making my own analysis scripts.

Yeah I don't know enough about it but thought it was worth mentioning for people with more scripting knowledge than me. I suppose I also thougt the command line interface might be able to run them, but again I don't know enough about it - perhaps it can only run generate commands.
