Continuous reports
Continuous reports will as the name suggest continuously upload firewall traffic and allow the data to be analyzed by MDCA. If you aren't onboarding every device to MDE, or connecting MDE to MDCA, this is an alternative way of analyzing the cloud app usage of your users. Additionally, the MDE integration currently only supports Windows and as of Summer 2024 Macs onboarded to MDE, firewall logs can give you information pertaining to other operating systems.
It is a good idea to test the reports you plan to upload using snapshot reports.
