Reports API
Run and retrieve conversation and merchandising reports via /v2/reports.
Use the Reports API to generate and fetch analytics snapshots (conversation deltas, category trends, direct search OOS impact) for a store and time window. Two endpoints share the same payload:
POST <https://api.retrend.ai/v2/reports/general>— fetches the most recent report for the given parameters (or a specific start date).POST <https://api.retrend.ai/v2/reports/run-now>— triggers generation immediately with the same request shape.
These examples assume you already created a session token as described in API Dependencies and you
will authenticate each request with organization-id and x-session headers. Include kiosk headers (kiosk-id,
x-kiosk, x-temp-kiosk, x-device-id) when calling from kiosk clients.
Request shape (ReportRequest)
All fields are in the JSON body:
store_num(number, required) — store number to report on.report(enumReport, required) — one of:conversation_delta_reportcategory_interest_trendsdirect_search_oos_impact
duration(enumReportDuration, required) —daily,weekly,monthly,quarterly, oryearly.start_date(string, optional) — ISO date. If omitted, the most recent period is used.
Example (conversation delta, last completed week):
curl -X POST "https://api.retrend.ai/v2/reports/general" \
-H "organization-id: $RETREND_ORG_ID" \
-H "x-session: $RETREND_SESSION" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d "{\"store_num\":2,\"report\":\"conversation_delta_report\",\"duration\":\"weekly\"}"To force a fresh run:
curl -X POST "https://api.retrend.ai/v2/reports/run-now" \
-H "organization-id: $RETREND_ORG_ID" \
-H "x-session: $RETREND_SESSION" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d "{\"store_num\":2,\"report\":\"category_interest_trends\",\"duration\":\"monthly\",\"start_date\":\"2024-08-01\"}"Response shape (ReportResponse)
report is one of three typed report objects:
ConversationDeltaReport: volumes over time, intent breakdowns, and channel mix with percent change.CategoryInterestTrendsReport: top/rising broadtypes and subtypes plus bar data.DirectSearchOOSImpactReport: direct-search volume, OOS counts/rates, top searched products, and time-series for search and OOS rate.
Common fields across reports: report_name, client_id, store_num, duration, start_date, end_date,
created_at. Each report adds its own metrics and chart series per the OpenAPI schema.
Implementation tips
- Choose
generalfor “latest period” retrieval; userun-nowwhen you need on-demand freshness (with the same request body). - Use consistent
store_numformatting; this API expects the numeric store number, notstore_id. - Cache responses by
(store_num, report, duration, start_date)to avoid redundant runs.
