BI Integration API
The BI Integration API provides flattened data exports optimized for Business Intelligence tools. Access device and asset data in a format that's easy to import into Power BI, Tableau, Excel, and other analytics platforms.
Why a Separate API?
Business Intelligence tools often struggle with nested JSON structures. The BI API solves this by providing the same data in a flattened format.
Public API (/api/v1)
- Nested DTOs for rich object relationships
- Ideal for application development
- Multiple levels of object hierarchy
BI API (/api/bi/v1)
- All properties flattened to top level
- Direct column mapping for BI tools
- Same data, optimized structure
Response Format Comparison
The same asset data is returned in different formats depending on which API you use.
