We show how RMarkdown was used in the national COVID-19 monitoring system in Austria. Within just a few days, our two-person team automated the process of generating and delivering customised weekly reports on COVID-19 hospitalisations. Our RMarkdown template generated two different kinds of reports in two different formats: 1) PDF files with detailed information at the subnational (i.e. federal state) level sent out automatically to a pre-defined list of local authorities (each recipient list received only one file with the analyses for the corresponding federal state), and 2) a publicly available HTML file with interactive features containing summary information at the national level only. Both report formats combined formatted text, links to external documents, tables, and different types of graphs (in the HTML format, the graphs were interactive).
