- 4I worked on a very similar problem a while ago and found no succor via the Dashboards and Reports API, which can create subscriptions only for the logged-in user.David Reed– David Reed2018-10-28 12:27:25 +00:00Commented Oct 28, 2018 at 12:27
- 1well, if you can wait until Summer 19 (safe harbor), the Platform Events PM says that Platform Events can be consumed by a configurable running user so your Lightning component would publish platform events of various types that upon consumption, could start the report schedule. At present, though, you are limited in the number of xxx__e SObjects and it is far smaller than 1000cropredy– cropredy2018-10-29 03:50:34 +00:00Commented Oct 29, 2018 at 3:50
- Thanks both. I don't get how platform events could help to resolve the running as problem in a daily basic process. Could you please expand the idea ?Martin Borthiry– Martin Borthiry2018-10-30 09:42:08 +00:00Commented Oct 30, 2018 at 9:42
- Another proposal: JWT authentication via a Connected App would allow you to access the Reports and Dashboards API as any user whose profile is "pre-approved" on the associated Connected App. You'd then be able to schedule a report as them.David Reed– David Reed2018-11-01 11:27:58 +00:00Commented Nov 1, 2018 at 11:27

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. marketing-cloud), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
