Page Properties and Reports

Page properties turn facts on a page - who owns it, which version it applies to, when it was last reviewed - into structured data. Reports then gather those facts from many pages into one live table that updates by itself.

Property Blocks

Property blocks are ready-made sets of properties for common records, so every risk, action or milestone captures the same details. Each one has its own / command - for example /risk or /action.

A risk record

Huddo includes blocks for action items, risks, OKRs, milestones, glossary terms, FAQs, open questions and decisions, and your organisation can add its own in Template Studio.

Turn blocks on for a wiki

Page properties and Decisions are always available. Other blocks appear in the / menu once an Editor or Owner turns them on in Wiki settings → Property blocks.

Build a Report

A report collects properties from many pages into one table.

  1. Type /page properties report - or, for a property block, its report, such as /risk report
  2. Choose the scope:
    • This page
    • This page + sub-pages
    • This wiki
    • Selected wikis
  3. Click Columns to choose which properties to show

A live report of how-to articles

Readers can then:

  • Filter on any column using the chips above the table
  • Search the rows
  • Filter by a date range when the report has a date column
  • Click a column heading to sort
  • Click Export to download a CSV or print to PDF

Reports respect permissions

A report only shows rows from pages the reader is allowed to see, so the same report can safely appear in front of different audiences.
