Salesforce Reports and Dashboards API via Apex
The Salesforce Reports and Dashboards API via Apex gives you programmatic access to your
report data as defined in the report builder.
The API enables you to integrate report data into any web or mobile application, inside or outside the Salesforce platform. For example, you might use the API to trigger a Chatter post with a snapshot of top-performing reps each quarter.

At a high level, the API resources enable you to query and filter report data. You can:
