I want to use the parameter --project-name for having it displayed in the report. First try does not work. Is it a parameter for the command edr report or edr send-report?

The parameter --project-name can be used with both edr report and edr send-report commands. According to the documentation, you can pass --project-name to optionally set a custom project name that will be shown in the report. The default value is the name of your dbt project. Here is the relevant documentation: > You can optionally pass a custom project name that will be shown in the report. The default value is the name of your dbt project. >
Copy code
> --project-name TEXT >
> [Oss > CLI commands and usage](https://docs.elementary-data.com/oss/cli-commands#cli-options) If it did not work on your first try, please ensure you are using the correct syntax, for example:
Copy code
edr report --project-name "My Custom Project"
or
Copy code
edr send-report --project-name "My Custom Project"
If you continue to experience issues, double-check that you are using a recent version of Elementary, as CLI options may vary between versions.

do I need to execute edr report before executing edr send-report?

The --project-name parameter is available for both edr report and edr send-report commands. It allows you to set a custom project name that will be displayed in the report, overriding the default (which is the name of your dbt project). The documentation states: > You can optionally pass a custom project name that will be shown in the report. The default value is the name of your dbt project. Example usage:
Copy code
edr report --project-name "My Custom Project"
or
Copy code
edr send-report --project-name "My Custom Project"
If it did not work on your first try, please ensure you are using the correct syntax and that you are on a recent version of Elementary, as CLI options may change between versions.
