In implementations of systems for generating interactive reports, a computing device implements a report system to receive input data describing a dataset and an analytics report for the dataset that depicts a result of performing analytics on the dataset. The report system generates a declarative specification that describes the analytics report in a language that encodes data as properties of graphic objects. Editing data is received describing a user input specifying a modification to the analytics report. The report system modifies the declarative specification using the language that encodes data as properties of graphic objects based on the user input and the dataset. An interactive report is generated based on the modified declarative specification that includes the analytics report having the modification.
