Snoobi Datafeed and parameters

Snoobi Datafeed Usage -- Updated for April 2022 Release

All Snoobi Datafeeds are in the form of a link to the Snoobi datacenter and may contain one or more parameters.

An example (non-functional):

https://data.snoobi.eu/snoobidata/6628a14966d6e6228a1e966dae62282?maxrow=1000&format=csv

The Snoobi Datafeed extracts data from the Snoobi servers for a specified Snoobi metrics panel. The data is returned in a normalized format (json, csv or Excel-style csv).

For security reasons, invalid Snoobi code Datafeed requests do not produce an error messafe. If the Datafeed is not used for 60 days, then it will automatically be reset to 'Static' meaning no data will be returned upon use but the Datafeed can be reactivated at any time by a request from a Snoobi account administrator.

The Snoobi Datafeed is subject to a 'fair use' policy with respect to the amount of data returned and the number of datafeed requests in a time period.

See below for an overview of the default parameters.

Parameter	Usage	Example
maxrow	Determines how much data is returned	?maxrow=1000
startdate	Startdate (can include time) Format YYY-MM-DD and THH:MM:SS	&startdate=2022-01-01T12:00:00 or &startdate=2022-01-01
enddate	Enddate (can include time) Format YYY-MM-DD and THH:MM:SS	&enddate=2022-01-08T18:00:00 or &enddate=2022-01-08
If no startdate is present, then startdate=today-7 days. If no enddate is present, then enddate=now If both are not present, then the default period is 7 days, including today until now. The typical delay for data to appear in the account is a few minutes, but can be more for very large datasets.
format	If format is omitted, then default output is json
	format=csv If no delimiter is present, then default to comma-delimited The format parameter cannot be used together with the excel parameter.	&format=csv
	delimiter=tab or delimiter=semicolon Delimited csv values with tab or semicolon	&format=tab or &format=semicolon
excel	excel=1, comma delimited, period for decimal fractions excel=2, semicolon delimited, comma for decimal fractions Date and time representation = YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS The excel parameter cannot be used together with the csv parameter	&exel=1 or &exel=2
Other	Other parameters can include sorting, filtering or segmentation on any Snoobi Analytics metric

Standard Snoobi Datafeed has no additional parameters, filtering and selection can then be done in the BI-tool or Excel.

However, there are many options to fine-tune the resulting dataset to match how the data will be used. Contact Snoobi Customer Support for questions.
