Easiest way to not send a blank emailed report?

Toad Data Point
1

We have automation in Toad data point that runs a query and auto emails the output to users. It works fine and is scheduled.

However, the report is an exception report and sometimes returns zero rows from the database. In such cases, we do not want to send out an “empty” report that just has headers.

What is the easiest way to accomplish this?

Thanks!!!

There’s a default row count variable - simply wrap your email in a IF/Condition statement, check to see if that variable is greater than 0 - if it is, send the email, if not, don’t (or send a different email).
