Guide de l’API pour la production de rapports personnalisés

Organisation des API

The Custom Reports APIs are organized around two important components that you should be familiar with:

• Template
• Report

These 2 components when combined together form a Custom Report which allows you to interface with the Custom Reporting feature within the Portfolio Manager user interface.

Template

A template is the primary component. It consists of a name (i.e., My Energy Report for 2022) and a set of metrics. The unique identifier to this component will be referred to as the templateId. You interface with a template when you perform any of the following actions on a custom report:

• update the name
• update the set of metrics

Report

A report is the secondary component -- it cannot exist without a corresponding template. A report consists of a timeframe (i.e., specific period ending date, date range, etc.) and a set of properties. The unique identifier to this component will be referred to as the reportId. You interface with a report when you perform any of the following actions on a custom report:

• update the reporting timeframe
• update the set of properties
• generate the report
• check the report's status
• download the report results
