Extend Rest Api with extended reporting possibilities
5

MVP

Via public api we can query reports and views.
However, they lack of the possibility to apply filters, search in specific fields or apply a full text search. Basically all the things we can do within a report on the portal

To achieve this, we currently have to use the undocumented internal api, that reports use when we apply filters and search for elements.

This works perfectly so far, but it would be much better to have this functionality also within the public api.

Let's wait for votes and voices. We'd like to evaluate if such suggestion would be applicable to wider audience.

I have a submission-based workflow where each accepted submission should trigger an action performed by a third-party service.

Typically, there are between 20 and 50 accepted submissions at a time. However, because Webcon does not support search or batch retrieval via a GET endpoint, the third-party service cannot pull the data directly in bulk. Instead, I’m forced to push each submission individually from Webcon to the service.

This one-by-one data push significantly increases resource usage on the third-party side, resulting in higher costs. The absence of a suitable batch endpoint makes the process inefficient and resource-intensive.
