Displaying a List of Unclosed Cases as Cards

This guide will show you how to use Salesforce Reporter to display a list of unclosed Salesforce cases and format them as cards so that the information is more easily viewed.

This is achieved with the use of the Reporting for Confluence add-on.

This example is also available as a wiki markup recipe on the Salesforce Reporter page under the Notes section.
