## What are reports and why are they important?

Various reporting options, bulk content publishing, as well as statistics for recent changes and user activity are all available within Reports.

The Reports section in Agility is a useful area for Metrics and Information about what's going on within your Instance.

To access Reports, click on **Reports** from your Agility menu where you'll be taken to the landing with a list of reports you may access and statistics.

## Recent Changes Report

The Recent Changes report is a handy report that will allow you to see what Pages or Content has been modified across your Agility Instance.

### Using the Report

The top of the Recent Changes Report displays a filter toolbar that makes it easy for you to filter by Date, Sitemap, Users & Locale.

### Bulk Publish/Unpublish

In most cases, you’ll want to use this report along with the filters for informational purposes, but you may also use it to bulk publish and unpublish content.  You may do that by checking off the appropriate check boxes next to the items in the report and simply clicking the “Publish” or “Unpublish” links at the top of the page, just above the column headers.
