  • 1.  Value 'null' in fields marked for reporting in API's generated by Data Reporting Warehouse

    Posted 12-20-2019 02:36
    All,

    I've marked several fields for reporting in my solution. When running the API I do get the fields but all values are 'null'. Anyone any ideas?

    Hi Joost, 
    I always use a testing tool like Postman to test my API calls. 
    - I find the solution key http://mysever/dwapi/v1/dim/solutions?$filter=contains(Name,'Customer')   Fill in your server name and use a filter if you have a lot of processes) and get the solution key
    - I review the form data captured: http://myserver/v1/forms/469  Fill in your server name and use the solution key number where I have 469

    The only reasons I can think the form data is null:
    - reporting db has not been synchronized
    - instance of workflow was run before reporting db existed
    - the values for those form fields are not yet filled in
    - there's something off with the joining of data in the reporting tool

    Hope this helps a little.

    Best Regards,
    Sigrid

    Hi Sigrid,

    We managed to solve the issue with the help of Winshuttle Support UK. Joining of data in the reporting tool was indeed the issue.
