How to Use the Reporting API

HUMAN's Reporting API lets you download report files that contain your HUMAN data. These reports are identical to the reports that you can configure and access through the HUMAN Dashboard.

You can use the Reporting API to fetch the following kinds of reports:

  • Scheduled reports
  • Ad hoc reports (BotGuard for Applications only)
  • Scheduled TLX reports
  • Ad hoc TLX reports (BotGuard for Applications only)
NOTE

The Reporting API lets you download report files that have already been generated, but you can't use the Reporting API to create new reports directly. To learn more, continue reading this guide!

Create reports via the HUMAN Dashboard​

Before you can use the Reporting API to download reports, you'll need to create or schedule a report via the HUMAN Dashboard. The reports you create can contain any data of your choosing.

If you create a report that runs on a recurring schedule, each subsequent file generated by that report will be available through the Reporting API. For example, if a report is scheduled to run once a week, you can download the latest weekly report whenever it's ready (as well as earlier versions of that report from previous weeks).

Download report files via the Reporting API​

After you've created reports via the HUMAN Dashboard, you can download any available report files via the Reporting API. This process involves three steps:

  1. First, use the /list endpoint to return a list of reports available for download.
  2. From this list of reports, find the name of the report you'd like to download, then include this name as a query parameter in a request to the /get endpoint.
  3. The /get endpoint will return a URL. Visit this URL to download your report file.
