How to include time range picker values (month and year) as email tokens in a scheduled report?

Dear experts,

I configured a report scheduled once a week. Time range picker is set to previous month. The report should be sent via email. In the email subject and body, I would like to show the name of the month and the number of the year.

How can I achieve this?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks anyway for your help and br,

Hi,

Thanks for your answer. Yes, the link you sent me I actually used as a starting point to get email notifications implemented. However, I would have hoped that someone can show me exactly how to extract the search time range picker value for usage as an email token.

Br,
