Convert Report to Gen2
Now let’s convert the above report to WebReport Gen2.
If we pick up the Web Report Gen1 Categories and map them to Web Report Gen2, the following is what we will get:
Note about Importing Gen1 WebReports into Gen2
Note: It is possible to download a Gen1 webreport to get a .wr report definition
file downloaded and then to attempt uploading it into Gen2. However, you will
not get a working report via this process. Many reports will simply not import
and will fail with a "500 Error". A few simple reports might import without such
an error; however, the categories and filters will be empty and will not
execute. At best, you might get the field layouts. Even in this scenario, you
will have to change all the fields to use the appropriate Gen2 categories and
fields. So, in short, this mechanism may at best give you a basic starting point
for just the field layout, and in most cases will not work at all.
