Re: issue with /api/eventReports for fetching data

 

Hi Lars,

We have a use-case for fetching event reports for a custom app that we're
building. We are planning to extend the API to fetch data for event
reports. The potential approach we would follow is similar to the way that
pivot tables api are built i.e. /api/eventReports/<id>/data  should fetch
us appropriate data. The metadata configuration can be fetched using the
eventReport UID and data can be fetched by using EventAnalyticsService.

Could you please let us know the complexities or the repercussions you
foresee that go along with extending the API. Any thoughts on this would be
valuable.

*Cheers,*
