To fully leverage the power of Solink’s event data, users must have the ability to pull relevant events and reports directly from the system. The Solink API provides users with a robust, flexible mechanism to extract event data based on filters such as date/time and report ID.
The Solink API is a RESTful API endpoint that allows authorized users, partners, and external applications to query and retrieve event data from the Solink platform. This data can then be used for reporting, auditing, and integration with external tools. Once a request is made, the Solink API follows these steps:
- The user authenticates their request using an access token generated from their unique API key.
- The API validates the parameters of the request, ensuring that the user has permission to access the requested data.
- The API then queries the events and reports that match the specified filters, such as a date range and report ID.
- The filtered event data is returned to the user, which can then be used for analysis, further processing, or integration with external systems.
The Solink API empowers users to pull and analyze Solink event data dynamically, making it easier to track operational and transactional activities, depending on their needs.
Supported Event Types

To fully leverage the power of Solink’s event data, users can query reports and events attached to those reports.
Note: The reports that will be returned from the GET Reports endpoint should be all the visible reports showing under the Events page in solinkcloud.com
Creating Reports: If you need guidance on creating reports and making them public, please refer to this help article. Once reports are created and set to public, you can use the Solink API to pull and analyze the event data linked to those reports.
