You can automate it a bit using nxshell (which is python internally) – generate CSV or xlsx file.
However, if you want fully automated reports – you need to use some kind of reporting engine, either built-in Jasper or some external solution.

Sample script which export summary table into csv file:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import csv, sys

menuPath = "Table1" # Table's "Menu Path"
baseObjectId = 2 # Infrastructure Services
outputFile = 'test.csv'

for table in session.listDciSummaryTables():
    if table.getMenuPath() == menuPath:
        result = session.queryDciSummaryTable(table.getId(), baseObjectId)
        if result:
            with open(outputFile, 'w') as f:
                w = csv.writer(f, dialect='excel')
                columns = []
                for c in result.getColumns():
                    columns.append(c.getDisplayName())
                w.writerow(columns) # Header

                for row in result.getAllRows():
                    cells = []
                    for i in range(0, row.size()):
                        cells.append(row.get(i).getValue())
                    w.writerow(cells)
