Hello John,
Unfortunately, the
<email_to> field is a required field for specifying the email address to which the completed
report should be sent.
By default, Wazuh relies on the email configuration to send reports via email.
If you do not configure the SMTP settings and provide an email address in the <email_to> field, Wazuh may encounter errors or fail to generate reports.
If you wish to automate report generation without using email notifications, you could explore alternative methods such as writing custom scripts that generate the reports and save them locally or manually retrieving the reports from the Wazuh system.
I hope you find this helpful.
