The modern web-based report builder in SolarWinds is highly integrated with the rest of the platform's visualization tools. According to the SolarWinds Platform Reporting Guide, reports are no longer limited to simple data tables; they can incorporate rich, interactive content already created elsewhere in the console.

Two key configurations available as content are existing intelligent maps (A) and existing widgets (D).

Existing Intelligent Maps: This allows an administrator to take a visually mapped dependency or network topology and embed it directly into a scheduled report. This provides a geographical or logical context to the data that static tables cannot provide.

Existing Widgets: Most widgets (resources) found on Summary or Node Details pages---such as 'Top 10 Nodes by Response Time' or 'Active Alerts'---can be added to a report as a component. This ensures consistency between what users see in real-time on their dashboards and what they receive in their weekly PDF summaries.

While you can embed performance data, the report builder is designed to consume these pre-configured UI elements (Maps and Widgets) to simplify report creation and maintain a unified look and feel across the observability suite.
