getReport accessor #3

Open sumkincpp opened 8 years ago

sumkincpp commented 8 years ago

Possible enhancement: also would be great to be able to generate Reports via getReport Report Generation Interface

It is a different wsdl. But we could develop another utility. What would be your use-case ?

sumkincpp commented 8 years ago

Usual case of retrieving data from existent report where not only metrics, but some additional formulas/expansions are used.

bauagonzo commented 8 years ago

The problem is with getReport you have to pass the entire report definition (and sometimes change a couple of tags). You have an example of how to use getReport in : https://github.com/eastsidegeek/INQPlus

I agree that this API works with the report definition, so it isn't capable for solving this task.

I hadn't played a lot with ViPR SRM web-services, but are there any other API-based ways for getting reports data? (Real-time, Scheduled Reports, Stored Reports)
