Querying metrics about km-support HOT 3 OPEN

Hi Steve,

Sorry about the confusion. Unfortunately, currently the API does not have the ability to query the unique visitor total for the entire date range. The good news is that we are building out a v2 of the API and that version will indeed have that ability.

As for the docs, I'll put it on our to-do-list and we'll make sure that's clarified because after looking it over, I agree with you that it's not clear.

Let us know if you're having any other issues and if there's any functionality that you'd like us to consider for v2.

Thanks,
Ryan

Thanks Ryan.

TBH I've not done enough with the API to know what else would be good in v2 but I'll let you know if I think of/see anything.

Hi Steve,

This actually is doable -- I forgot that you can use our people search endpoint to get this number. What you'll want to do is the following:

Step 1: Create a people report (in the web interface) with the criteria you're looking for and make sure to save the report.
Step 2: Ping the following endpoint (with needed headers) to return the list of reports -- https://api.kissmetrics.com/core/reports
Step 3: Ping that people report's endpoint to return the results of the report for the specified date range.

Here's a link to our support doc on those last 2 steps: http://support.kissmetrics.com/api-update.html

I'll be out of the office for the rest of this week, but let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Ryan
