    Sorry 30 months! Just realised 2019 not 2020!

    Great suggestion and agree this would be a great value add for Libraries! Megan, as this was being reviewed 18 months ago - has there been any progress since?

  • Jago Brown commented  ·   ·  Report

    In the absence of an API to pull ebook usage data we are manually downloading CSV reports at ....ebookcentral.proquest.com/libCentral/UsageReportSearch.aspx

    This makes it time consuming getting this data into our database and more prone to errors than consuming APIs which we can do for LMS, SIS & Attendance data!

    Kind regards

    We would like to reduce a manual work of downloading usage data every week for our internal reporting system Tableau. So we suggest developing API (or even xAPI) service for getting data automatically.
