Evidence Of Review Async API

EvidenceOfReviewAsync

This API submits the report generation request which executes asynchronously. Result of this API contains identifier for report, status and location for retrieving the report data.

The report identifier and locations in the result can be used to track the report generation operation.

Note: This note is intended to those who have used earlier versions of this API.

  • There were two separate reporting endpoint APIs: EvidenceOfReviewByDept and EvidenceOfReviewByUsers. However, from this release, these two APIs have been merged into one API called EvidenceOfReview. This unified API offers the same detailed reports which is conveniently accessible in one place.

  • The users field is changed to monitoredemployees.

  • A new filter Searches is added.

  • ReturnByDepartment: This parameter has been added to get the records grouped by departments and is set to False by default. When set to False, the monitoredEmployeeId, monitoredEmployee, and totalMessagesForSampling parameters are applicable, thus, returned the searched values in the response.

    Conversely, if set to True, the monitoredEmployeeId, monitoredEmployee, and totalMessagesForSampling parameters are not applicable, thus, returned the -1 value in the response.

  • ReturnZeroCaptureRecords: This parameter has been added and is set to False by default. When set to False, parameters with a result count of zero will not be displayed in the output. Conversely, if set to True, parameters with a result count of zero will be included in the output.

  • The Reviewed output parameter has been removed and replaced with the ReviewedRelevant and ReviewedIrrelevant parameters.

    However, the Unreviewed output parameter has been retained. In addition, the UnreviewedRelevant and UnreviewedIrrelevant parameters are added.

  • In the response, the -1 value for searchHits signifies Not Applicable.

To use the EvidenceOfReviewAsync API, follow the steps below:

  1. Call the EvidenceOfReviewAsync API to submit report generation request.

    This asynchronous API supports GET and POST query methods. Use any of the following as needed:

    GET https://<Reporting endpoint Base URL>/odata/EvidenceOfReviewAsync

    POST https://<Reporting endpoint Base URL>/odata/EvidenceOfReviewAsync

    Sample input

    • GET https://<Reporting endpoint Base URL>/odata/EvidenceOfReviewAsync?ReportName= <name of report>& StartDate=<YYYY-MM-DD>&EndDate=<YYYY-MM-DD> &Departments= [<DeptID1>,<DeptID2>,...]&MessageTypes=[<MessageTypeID1>,<MessageTypeID2>,...] &MessageDirections =[<MessageDirectionID1>,<MessageDirectionID2>, ...] & CaptureTypes= [<CaptureTypeID1>, <CaptureTypeID2>,...]&ReturnByDepartment=True&ReturnZeroCaptureRecords=False

    • GET https://<Reporting endpoint Base URL>/odata/ EvidenceOfReviewAsync?ReportName=TestReport1&StartDate=2024-01-01&EndDate=2024-06-30 &Departments=[101, 102] &MessageTypes=[1,7]&MessageDirections=[1,2] &CaptureTypes=[6,99] &ReturnByDepartment=True&ReturnZeroCaptureRecords=False

    • POST https://<Reporting endpoint Base URL>/odata/EvidenceOfReviewAsync

    EvidenceOfReviewAsync - URL Parameter/Filters

    The following filters can be used with the EvidenceOfReviewAsync API when invoked using the GET and POST methods. The system uses the AND operator between the filters to return the result based on the specified filters.

    Data Type: Date in the YYYY-MM-DD format that is StartDate.

    EndDate

    Mandatory

    This filter specifies the end date for returning count of items whose CaptureDate is less than or equal to this date.

    Data Type: Date in the YYYY-MM-DD format that is EndDate.

    MessageTypes

    Optional

    Specifies the type of captured items and returns item counts for items that have the specified message type.

    Note:

    • To include all monitored employees in a report, do not specify any monitored employee IDs in a query.

    • To include results for specific monitored employees of a specified tenant/customer in a report, specify monitored employee IDs in the query

    • The valid values of monitored employees are the IDs of any monitored employee from the Insight Surveillance MonitoredEmployee ID list. This ID list can be fetched from the MonitoredEmployee API endpoint. See MonitoredEmployees API. Refer to the MonitoredEmployeeId field only.

    Data Type: Integer ID of the user.

    MessageDirections

    Optional

    Specifies whether the item was sent/received from within the organization or from an external source and returns item counts for items that have the specified message direction.

    ReturnByDepartment

    Mandatory to get department wise report

    This parameter value is set to False by default.

    • When set to False, it returns the count at monitored employee level (that is grouping by monitored employees).

      The monitoredEmployeeId, monitoredEmployee, and totalMessagesForSampling parameters are applicable, and return the corresponding values in the response.

    • When set to True, it returns the evidence of review count at department level (that is grouping by departments).

      The monitoredEmployeeId, monitoredEmployee, and totalMessagesForSampling parameters are not applicable, and return the -1 value in the response.

    ReturnZeroCaptureRecords:

    Mandatory to get monitoredemployees wise report

    This parameter value is set to False by default.

    • When set to False, parameters with a result count of zero will not be displayed in the output.

    Searches

    Optional

    Specifies IDs of the searches.

    Note:

    If the IDs of the parent searches are specified, the generated report includes result for corresponding child searches.
