Historical Call Data

After creating a Service User within the Chronicall UI, you will be given an authentication key.
Anytime a request is made to the API, an authentication key must be present.

Add the following header to your API request:

 Authorization : Bearer {authentication_key}

By having the authorization key present, you will be able to access everything that the Service User is set up in Chronicall to have access to.

Note: For this feature, you must be updated to version 4.0.9 or newer.

Creating an API-Enabled Report

In order to make a request for a report, we’ll need to first enable it for API use. Do do so, navigate to the Chronicall main page. On the left sidebar, select API Enablement > Historical Data Access. A pop up window will appear called "API Enabled Report." Click "Show List View," which is located in the bottom left corner. This will allow us to see all of the reports that are currently enabled for API use.

A new pop up window called "API Enabled Report Profiles" will appear. Select the report you would like to see request details for. If the report that you want to run does not exist, click the "Add" button, which is located in the top right corner of the window. Fill out the information that the "Add" window asks, which includes:

Report Template: A searchable input that allows you to select any available report.
Service Account: Select the service user that will have access to this report.
Report UUID: The unique identifier for this report. This value will be used in the above URL as the historicDataKey.

Once the information has been entered, click "OK."

After you've added reports, you can view the "Request Details" for any report by clicking the "Show Request Details" button, which is located near the top right corner of the window. The Request Details view provides important information that is helpful when making API requests. When you click the button, you'll be prompted to select your report parameters, which will be used to generate details for your specific API request.

Click "OK" once all information has been entered. A new window will appear that provides you will all necessary information.
