Threekit Data Export via API

In order to export ABA data from Threekit, you'll need to follow the following steps:

  1. Query for a report. If the data has already been exported, this API will not re-generate the report.
  2. Query for the job and its results

Querying for a report

To query for a new or existing report, you will need to send a GET request to the analytics API.

let ENV = 'https://preview.threekit.com' // this will be whatever environment you are querying for data n
let ORG_ID = '1d7bc227-2ea7-434e-8281-65958b03f41b' // Your Threekit Org ID
let AUTH_TOKEN = '6cd6dbb6-86dc-4048-b542-908169b16d77' // API token
let EVENT_TYPE = 'configuration_change'

/*
    Event types:
    configuration_change
    player_loaded
    left_configurator
*/

// Dates will be formatted in YYYY-MM-DD
let START_DATE = '2024-01-01'
let END_DATE = '2024-01-19'

var myHeaders = new Headers();
myHeaders.append("accept", "application/json");
myHeaders.append("authorization", `Bearer ${AUTH_TOKEN}`);

var requestOptions = {
  method: 'GET',
  headers: myHeaders,
  redirect: 'follow'
};

fetch(
  `${ENV}/api/analytics/report?orgId=${ORG_ID}&eventType=${EVENT_TYPE}&startDate=${START_DATE}&endDate=${END_DATE}`,
  requestOptions
)
  .then((response) => response.json())
  .then((response) => console.log(response))
  .catch((err) => console.error(err));

This will return an object containing details about the data export job. You will need the job's ID in the next step:

Querying for job results

To query for a job's results you will need the job's ID:

let ENV = "https://preview.threekit.com"; // this will be whatever environment you are querying for data n
let AUTH_TOKEN = "6cd6dbb6-86dc-4048-b542-908169b16d77"; // API token
let JOB_ID = "24fea84b-bdd1-4534-be25-93eeaa2c56af"; // This will be returned from your previous API call

const options = {
  method: "GET",
  headers: {
    accept: "application/json",
    authorization: `Bearer ${AUTH_TOKEN}`,
  },
};

fetch(`${ENV}/api/catalog/jobs/${JOB_ID}`, options)
  .then((response) => response.json())
  .then((response) => console.log(response))
  .catch((err) => console.error(err));

A successful export will return an object that contains data similar to:

 ..."output": {
    "fileId": "a716dfd2-ea2e-4d62-999c-e9c8dbeab9ab",
    "fileName": "analytics-metric_configuration_change-2024-01-01-2024-01-19--000000000000.csv.zip"
  }

Using the details in the output object, you can retrieve data about your export or download the file itself:

let fileDetailEndpoint = `${ENV}/api/files/${FILE_ID}` // this will return details about the file
let fileEndpoint = `${ENV}/api/files/${FILE_ID}/content` // this will let you download the tile itself

📘

Please note that a job may take several minutes to complete.

Prior to downloading the result, please ensure you check for the job's successful completion first, by checking for "status": "stopped" in the JSON return, and that the file output exists. You can repeat the fetch request every 5 seconds until this happens.
