Wave REST API Overview (Pilot)

You can access Analytics Cloud datasets and lenses programmatically using the Wave REST API.

We provide this feature to selected customers through a pilot program that requires agreement to specific terms and conditions. To be nominated to participate in the program, contact Salesforce. Because pilot programs are subject to change, we can’t guarantee acceptance. This pilot feature isn’t generally available, as referenced in this document or in press releases or public statements. We can’t guarantee that it will become generally available within any particular time frame or at all. Make your purchase decisions only on the basis of generally available features. Services provided by the Wave REST API are subject to change. Support is not provided.

Note

Using the Wave REST API, you can:
  • Send queries directly to the Wave Platform.
  • Access datasets that have been imported into the Wave Platform.
  • Retrieve Analytics Cloud lenses.
  • Access XMD information.
  • Retrieve a list of dataset versions.
  • Create and retrieve Analytics Cloud applications.
  • Retrieve a list of dependencies for an application.

The Wave REST API is based on the Chatter REST API and follows its conventions. For more information about the Chatter REST API, see the Chatter REST API Developer’s Guide.
