Reporting with API
The Reporting API provides a general reporting mechanism for web applications to use reports based on various platform features (e.g., Content Security Policy, Feature Policy, or feature deprecation reports), ensuring they are consistently available.
The Reporting API offers the following key benefits:
Both current and historical snapshots of the data are available. The historical snapshots allow users to generate reports that provide insights into when changes have occurred.
There's no need for users to manually copy and paste data into existing reports each time the data is updated. The Reporting API enables users to create custom queries for existing data, offering complete flexibility to create reports tailored to specific business needs.
Users do not need to be software developers to query the API; instead, they can use familiar third-party reporting tools to retrieve and visualize the data according to business needs. The Reporting API is secure, requiring a valid API Key for data queries.
Users can filter or expand the data retrieved, allowing them to target specific metrics they need to track. The API makes it easy to run queries to get the latest data from your site, and users can use any reporting tool of choice or build bespoke solutions to visualize the data.
