Extracting Data from Widgets

Hello! 

I am trying to extract data from widgets inside a dashboard using the REST API in Python.  I currently have the JAQL from the widget and want to run that against the elasticube.  I am referencing a Sisense community post  that talks about a 'elasticubes/{elasticube}/jaql' endpoint in version 0.9.  This endpoint does not show up for me.

Am I able to use this endpoint? Or is there a more effective way to get data from the widgets inside my dashboard?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi @mshevelson, you can safely use the JAQL API. There's a small mistake in that community post, the API endpoint you're looking for is:

 

/api/datasources/{datasource}/jaql

 

You can see the correct URL referenced in the code sample included in the community post.

Here's an example of what that URL would look like with the "Sample Healthcare" sample data model:

 

https://example.com/api/datasources/Sample%20Healthcare/jaql

 

You can find the API reference for this endpoint here.

Thank you for your help! This is exactly what I am looking for.

What is 'cubeName' in regards to the API?  Is it the name of my elasticube?  It doesn't seem to be working as expected.
