Export views, datasets, schedules etc.

Dear All!

Is there an easier way to extract all the views, datasets, schedules etc. information from a space or across different spaces?

I mean what we have in this GRID for examples for the views:

I need to create different reports and it would be time consuming to select and copy-paste.

Many thanks!

Kind regards,

Vera

    Hello, you can extract all this info via APIs:

    Another option is to ask your administrator is they can extract it out of the repository database tables for the objects you need:

    Hi Josh!

    Thanks for these links I will review - actually I supposed to be the admin now 😅 so I need to discover.

    Many thanks!

    Hi Josh,

    We've set up the API extractions, so most of the checks should be covered now! However, we couldn't find a way to retrieve data for the Jobs and Schedules.

    It would be helpful to have an overview, similar to the grid view, with the following information:

    Schedules: workflow name, interval, next run

    Jobs: workflow, space, initiated by, status, start time, end time, elapsed time

    The goal is to create a monitoring system to track whether the scheduled runs have been completed or not.

    Let me know your thoughts on this!

    Many thanks!

    These APIs exist, you might need to upgrade to a later version for Schedules, but Jobs is older

    Hi Josh,

    yes, unfortunately it seems that our version 2.8.8.27 is indeed not supporting this schedule operations API call.

    We were also using this API to get the relations between datasets, view, worfklows:

    Although we have found some datasets that were not appearing in the list as "child" element (checked by name and ID as well). The result looks like this:

    Although when we were checking in the associations to that particular dataset, it was there:

    Do you know a better way/API to check these relations/associations? What could be the issue?

    Many thanks!

    Kind regards,

    Vera
