Collaborative Report Environment
Adding Rich Media
In Athena, you can enhance your reports by adding tables, charts, and images. This functionality allows you to create detailed and visually appealing reports that communicate data effectively.
Tables: Use tables to organize data in rows and columns, making it easier to understand and analyze.
Charts: Insert charts to visualize data trends and patterns. Various types of charts are available to suit different data needs.
Images: Add images to support your analysis and provide visual context. Images can be diagrams, infographics, or pictures relevant to your report.
One of the standout features of Athena is the collaborative editing environment. This feature enables multiple users to work on the same report simultaneously. Team members can add comments, make edits, and provide feedback in real-time, enhancing teamwork and productivity.
Additionally, reports in Athena are fully integrated into the platform, allowing for real-time updates. This integration means that as new data becomes available or as users make changes, the report automatically updates to reflect the latest information. This real-time functionality ensures that your report is always current and accurate.
Visualizing Reports
Athena allows you to generate diagrams and visual summaries to help better understand report contents. You can ask Athena to visualize a report, making the data more accessible and easier to interpret.
To ask Athena to visualize a report, you can use the quick actions feature. Type a slash (/) in the report editor and select ask documents. You can then choose the relevant documents or data sources that you want Athena to use for generating the visual summary.
For example, if you have a report and you want Athena to create a diagram that summarizes the key points, you would type a slash (/) and select ask documents. Next, choose the related documents from the workspace. Athena will process the information and generate a diagram summarizing the contents of the report.
Once the diagram is generated, you can insert it into the report by selecting the insert results option. This helps in presenting complex data in a simple, visual format, making it more comprehensible.
Important: Ensure that your data sources are well-organized and relevant to get the most accurate visual summaries.

Updating the executive summary in Athena using quick actions is a straightforward process. You can easily integrate new data to update the summary. Here's how you can do it.
First, to start updating the executive summary, open the relevant report in Athena. Then, using the Query Editor, navigate to the section of the report where you want to update the executive summary.
To incorporate new data, use the Athena Quick Actions. Type a slash (/) to bring up the quick actions menu. Select the Ask Documents option. This allows you to pull in data from available sources.
Choose the documents or datasets you want to use for the update. You can include web sources, internal documents, or any other available data.

Once Athena has processed the data, it will provide you with a summary and the associated sources. You can then insert these results into your report.

Integrating Reports with Workflows
