# Creating a report

To create a new report dashboard in Pixie, first open the **Reports** tab at the top of your workspace, and then select the **Create report** button.

This will open a popup window where you can create a name for this new report, and choose the team members and data sets you would like to include. When you're happy with this, select **Create Report**.

_Please note: If neither Operational nor Productivity sections are selected when creating a report, this will contain only the email reporting metrics by default._

Once you've created a report, the first thing see you will on this page is the emails section at the top; we can change the time frame for this section using the dropdown in the top right-hand corner.

If you selected to add the Productivity and/or Operational sections to this report and'd like to add a widget to see these data points, you can do this by clicking the **Add new widget** button to the right of the section header.
