Run report
Rows of a table report with their Record ID#, in the report order.
MCP tool quickbase_read → run_report
read
Opens one table report and returns its columns and rows in the order the report sorts them, each row with its Record ID#. Filters saved in the report apply; the dynamic filters are not changed. Pass next_cursor back as cursor for the next page. A chart report returns an error, because Quickbase has no row data for it; use a table report.
