Answer
The ANVL Standard REST API is used to extract ANVL data and connect it to other systems, analytics tools, or internal reporting environments. ANVL supports REST API integrations, data export, and custom analytics workflows.
Use the API when you need to:
pull workflow and operational data out of ANVL
load ANVL data into your own data warehouse or BI tools
build custom dashboards or analytics
integrate ANVL with external systems
automate supported processes such as creating work or syncing data between systems
Most API use cases are focused on reading data from ANVL for reporting or integration purposes. ANVL also provides API documentation and support channels for integration requests.
Steps
Review the API documentation.
Go to the ANVL API documentation site.
Review the available endpoints, JSON schemas, and request and response examples.
Decide whether the API is the right tool.
Use the ANVL REST API when:your team needs custom reporting beyond standard ANVL or Power BI reporting
you want to combine ANVL data with other enterprise systems
you have an internal analytics, IT, or integration team
you want to automate supported data exchange or workflow setup processes
Identify the data objects you need.

Use the API for the right types of work.
Common API use cases include:feeding internal BI dashboards
loading data into a data warehouse
combining ANVL data with ERP, CRM, or work order systems

Additional details
ANVL also offers standard reporting, Power BI integration, and custom reporting support, so the API is usually best when standard reporting is not enough.
If your need is mainly a new dashboard or report, compare the API option against ANVL’s standard reports and custom reporting support first.
API work is generally best suited for technical users, analytics teams, or system integrators.
