Re: difficuties to obtain dataelements from oganisation units through the api....
Hi,,
Thanks a lot for the quick reply, i can now retrieve a single value with
something like this: :
api/dataValues?de=IBRoBwdUxkA&pe=2012&ou=vzw0YutAWos
I am also trying to get the complete dataset using this:
/api/dataValueSets?dataSet=iShiRf8NdCv&period=201201&orgUnit=vzw0YutAWos
but it returns nothing..
Am i missing something ?
Is there another way to get a complete dataset ?
I'd like to request all datasets of all organisationunits at once, how can
this be done ?
Thanks,
Stephane
