A snapshot becomes a static report, meaning that you can no longer interact with it, it has been designed to preserve a result set at a point in time to use for comparison later. |   ## Enabling Bookmarks & Snapshots In order to use the Bookmark and/or Snapshot functionality in Yellowfin, you will need to ensure the required permission is enabled by completing the following: 1.
