Run a report

Runs one report over a day, a month or a range of business days, raw or as the page prints it.

GEThttps://tablebuddy.radioworkflow.com/api/v1/reports/{report_id}

ReadCosts 5 units

For a person-readable answer, send view=display: the values as the page prints them, each table's data rows (at most 200) with its totals line apart.

Each report takes only the parameters its span uses: a day report day; a month report month; a range report from and to together, or range (today, yesterday, 7d, 30d, month, lastMonth, 90d or year); a report of right now nothing; and any report view. Leave them out for the report's own default. Days are business days in the restaurant's time zone, at most 366 days back and never in the future; from and to may be at most 366 days apart, and a to after today is clipped to today. span says which days were used. list-reports names each report's parameters.

view=raw (the default) answers result: headline figures, at most one chart, tables and notes, values raw (money in minor units, days as keys, instants as ISO strings), with the report's own camelCase keys. view=display answers title, span_label, stats, tables and notes as the report's page prints them. A display table's rows are its data rows, stopping at 200 (truncated says when more exist, and total_rows counts them all); the totals line the page prints under them is the table's totals, never a row, so summing a column over rows counts nothing twice.

Sales count orders on the day they were opened; collections count money on the day it moved, so the two do not match, and each report's notes say how it counted. Report 24, Labor, needs payroll:read on the key as well: without it the report answers 404 not_found, as any report the key may not see.

Authentication

Key

Authorization: Bearer <key>, or the same key in x-api-key. A key acts as the person who made it, cut down to this endpoint’s scope, and never as an owner. How keys work

Scope

reports:readRead reports

The key's creator needs

View reports (reports.view)

With payroll:read

With payroll:read (Read pay, labor cost and labor %) also on the key, what it grants counts here too. No other scope on the key changes what this endpoint does.

Request headers

Authorizationrequired

Bearer <key>. x-api-key: <key> works too; Authorization wins when both are sent.

Idempotency-Keyignored

Ignored: a read changes nothing, so there is nothing to repeat. Idempotency

Response headers

request-idalways

This request’s id. Quote it when asking for help.

Cache-Controlalways

no-store: an answer is never cached.

RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining, RateLimit-Resetonce the key is known

The key’s units a minute, what is left of this minute’s, and the seconds until the window starts again. Never on a 401. Rate limits

The error’s code, the same as error.code in the body.

The Bearer challenge, naming what was wrong with the key or the scope it lacks.

Errors

403insufficient_scope

The key does not carry the endpoint's scope.

Fix: Scopes are fixed when a key is made: make a new key with the scope.

403issuer_access_ended

The key's creator has left the restaurant, was suspended, or was removed and invited back.

Fix: Make a new key from an active account.

403issuer_permission_changed

The key's creator no longer holds any permission that could put this scope on a key.

Fix: Ask an owner to restore the permission, or make a new key from an account that holds it.

403permission_required

The key's permissions for this endpoint (its creator's, cut down to the endpoint's scope) do not include what this endpoint, or this argument, needs. The message names it.

Fix: Use a key with the named scope, from a creator who holds the named permission.

404not_found

A report this key may not see: Labor (labor) without payroll:read on the key, or made by someone without Pay rates and payroll.

Fix: Use a key that also carries payroll:read, made by someone who holds Pay rates and payroll.

422invalid_request

An unknown report_id, a parameter the report's span does not take, range beside from or to, from without to, a day or month in the future or more than 366 days back, from after to, or from and to more than 366 days apart.

Fix: Send only the parameters list-reports names for the report, within the last 366 days.

Possible on every endpoint
