Instant reporting

Instant reporting allows you to see data immediately when it's available, instead of waiting for a report to run and then downloading the file for offline viewing. Instant reporting can save time when you're looking for quick performance checks, ad-hoc reports, and routine analysis of common dimensions and metrics. Instant reports can be single use or saved for later, and also made into visualizations like bar and pie charts. Larger and more complex reports can be saved and downloaded, and retrieved from the report list at a later time.
