An example guide to NSSP Sample Reports

Hello everyone and thank you for your interest in the presentation.

WIP: There are a few items I want to expand upon, including:

1. Updating the readme. (Done)
2. Add sections for the first half of the paired R markdown script. (Done)
3. Re-format the python script section headers to be in parity with the R markdown script.
4. Add a section to the readme on building queries in ESSENCE and then moving them to a script (e.g. R or python).
5. Add sections for the latter half of the script that includes graphical generation and outputting to a docx document.
6. Transitioning to other potential uses of retrieving NSSP data/summaries through ESSENCE.

An overview of the keyring concept

For many operations, Windows will store credentials in a user directory. This can help a user access and maintain their logins.

The easiest way to find where windows credentials are stored is through the search bar, as shown below.

You can see, shown below, a few items in the Generic Credentials section. Some of them are credentials handled by the Office365 environment; but you also have the option to 'Add a generic credential'. This would be the manual way to create or update a credential.

Since NSSP requires a password change every 90 days, you will need to be acquianted with making those updates in various places. This is one easy way to manage the storage of a credential outside of a shared network drive, and outside of storing a password in the script.
