Scheduling a report to export as CSV and email to a recipient.

Hi all,

I'm trying an approach to a problem I'm having of scheduling a report to return a CSV file to a specified user via email.

I'm doing this by scheduling a VF page via a HTTP callout.

 

All indications in the debug logs seem to say all is working, but I never get the results emailed to me.

The email address and the report ID are stored in a Custom settings group down in the Exporter class...

 

My Scheduled class is as follows

global class ReportExporter implements System.Schedulable {
    global void execute(SchedulableContext sc) {
    getmailReportOutput gem = new getmailReportOutput();
    gem.runReport();
    }
}

 The class that is doing the HTTP callout to the VF page calling the class that generates and emails the report:

public class getmailReportOutput{
    public Static String strSession;
    public getmailReportOutput() {
        }
    
    public void runReport() {
        strSession = UserInfo.getSessionId();
        makeReportRequest();
        }
        
@future (callout=true)      
    public static void makeReportRequest()  {   
        ReportName__c mc = ReportName__c.getValues('ReportName');
        String strEmailAddr =  mc.RptEmail__c;
        URL xHost = System.URL.getSalesforceBaseUrl();
        String strHost =xHost.getHost();
        String requestUrl =  'https://' + strHost + '/apex/TestSendReport';
        HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest();
        req.setEndpoint(requestUrl);
        req.setMethod('GET');
        req.setHeader('Cookie','sid=' + strSession;);
        String output = new Http().send(req).getBody();
        }
    }

 

The VF page that calls the class that generates the report and emails the CSV file is very simple - it just calls a controller and a method that builds the attachmnent and sends it::

 

<apex:page controller="Exporter" action="{!executeRpt}">
  <!-- Begin Default Content REMOVE THIS -->  
  <!-- End Default Content REMOVE THIS -->
</apex:page>

 

The page controller is as follows;

public class Exporter {
    public static Boolean isTest;
    public static String strEmailAddr;
    
    public void executeRpt() {
        System.debug('CALLING REPORT EXPORTER...');        
        ReportName__c mc = ReportName__c.getValues('ReportName');
        strEmailAddr =  mc.RptEmail__c;
        
        System.debug('ReportName:' +  mc.RptName__c);
        System.debug('EmailAddr:' + mc.RptEmail__c);
        integer a = 1;
        ApexPages.PageReference report = new ApexPages.PageReference( '/' + mc.RptName__c + '?csv=1');
         
        Messaging.EmailFileAttachment attachment = new Messaging.EmailFileAttachment();
        attachment.setFileName('report.csv');
        attachment.setBody(report.getContent());
        attachment.setContentType('text/csv');
        Messaging.SingleEmailMessage message = new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage();
        message.setFileAttachments(new Messaging.EmailFileAttachment[] { attachment } );
        message.setSubject('Report');
        message.setPlainTextBody('The report is attached.');
        message.setToAddresses( new String[] { strEmailAddr } );
        Messaging.sendEmail( new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage[] { message } );        
    }
 
}

 

When I schedule the ReportExporter class to run, the debug log on the developer console doesn't seem to show any obvious errors:

 ....But the email never arrives.

 

When I just run the page (https://c.cs4.visual.force.com/apex/TestSendReport?csv=1)  it runs and send an email just fine.


Am I missing something?

 

Many Thanks for any insight

Well, after much rethinking, I go this to work.


For anyone interested, I blogged the solution here:
