Hello, When we export a Liveboard as PDF via the REST API, the generated PDF’s document metadata /Title is set to "ThoughtSpot". When users open the downloaded file, the PDF reader title bar shows "ThoughtSpot" instead of the Liveboard / report name. We rename the downloaded file correctly (e.g. My_Report_Name.pdf), but many PDF readers prefer the embedded document title over the filename, so the title bar still shows "ThoughtSpot". POST /api/rest/2.0/report/liveboard

{
  "metadata_identifier": "<liveboard-guid>",
  "file_format": "PDF",
  "transient_content": "<optional transient content>",
  "pdf_options": {
    "include_cover_page": false,
    "include_filter_page": false
  }
}

Is there an existing parameter on /api/rest/2.0/report/liveboard to set the PDF document /Title metadata, or some workaround?

Solution: Based on the official REST API schema for

POST /api/rest/2.0/report/liveboard

(

exportLiveboardReport

), there is no parameter to set PDF document metadata like

/Title

. The available

pdf_options

are limited to fields such as: -

include_cover_page

-

include_filter_page

-

include_custom_logo

-

include_page_number

-

page_orientation

-

page_size

-

zoom_level

-

truncate_table

-

page_footer_text

So today, you cannot set the embedded PDF title via this endpoint directly. A practical workaround is to post-process the exported PDF and set

/Title

yourself (e.g., with

qpdf

,

pikepdf

,

iText

,

PDFBox

, etc.) before delivering it to users. --- Suggestions: - Your current filename-rename approach is still worth keeping, but as you observed, many readers prioritize embedded metadata over filename. - If this is user-facing and high-volume, add a metadata-normalization step in your export pipeline: 1. Call ThoughtSpot export API. 2. Save PDF bytes. 3. Rewrite PDF metadata (

Title = Liveboard/report name

). 4. Return/download final PDF. - If you want this natively supported, raise a ThoughtSpot feature request for

pdf_options.title

(or similar) on

exportLiveboardReport
