IBM Digital Analytics API

The IBM® Digital Analytics API is an extensible data exchange framework that you can use to extract data from your reports. Use it to bring report information in-house, build custom widgets with your data, or provide select data to partners or others.

The API conforms to the Representational State Transfer (REST) architecture, using the HTTP protocol and a URI to access resources. Use the IBM Digital Analytics API window in the Manage section of the side navigation pane to configure API URLs.

You can configure API queries in several different formats for all standard reports in Digital Analytics. Choose from standard date ranges, including daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly. You can also specify an optional second date range for comparison.

After you generate an API URL, you can manually modify it to change the query. For example, you can change the date range in the URL to a different time period. In this way, you can reuse or update an API call without logging in to Digital Analytics.

Trended Top Line Metrics reports offer more options. However, you can access trended Top Line Metrics data only by manually configuring an API URL, or by modifying a previously generated URL.
