[Greg Rowles <greg.rowles@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mark

My JSON request:
api/analytics.json?dimension=pe:LAST_3_MONTHS&dimension=dx:trqWVUf9e6D;lPVvmrINVHS;eDktBD88IUL&dimension=ou:LEVEL-3;JLA7wl59oN3&hierarchyMeta=true&displayProperty=NAME&showHierarchy=true

The objective is to reconstruct JSON to include columns for all
parent-orgunits.

Some background to this - we have several reports specified in 'pivot
table' layout but we need to make these outputs drill-through. Reporting is
expected down to facility level for the last 3 months for the entire
country - I assume this amount of data would probably choke the browser so
I'm wanting to create a dynamic HTML report with drill-through capabilities
but starting at regional levels. The current 'show hierarchy' functionality
in pivot tables is insufficient plus it does not support drill-through
'mining'. I was planning on using PivotTable.js to accomplish this...
