Can kx dashboards send a data source as an email

Hi there

 

I currently have a dashboard which previews data and then sends the data out as a csv attachment in an email to a given email address but the issue with it is that the query has to be run twice which is very time consuming. I was wondering would it be at all possible to create a virtual datasource which takes the preview datasource and sends that out instead of running the query twice?

Both of those methods are peculiar. If you want to preview the data, why are you emailing yourself in the future what you want to see in the present?

The data needs to be shared with multiple users.

Given that I have no clue how to use kdb+ or q yet, my only proposed solution for you would be to create a forwarding chain with your front-end email software.
