> Currently report data produced by Lens is formatted as CSV and then delivered via email as a zip file. Optionally, we should have ability to integrate directly with cloud based sheet such as Google Sheets, which can be used to view, analyze and share these results. This will reduce friction for users by allowing them to slice & dice directly without having to move the data anywhere. 
> Besides, we should allow users to put in templates and choose them while running a query. Then the result population will go against the template instead of a generic sheet. This can be used in very powerful ways by the users.
