Robin's Analytics API

Updated July 14, 2026 22:42

Should I use the generic or Analytics API?

Robin's Analytics API is ideal for reporting and monitoring office utilization, providing historical data. For integrating with other office apps or current inventory data, use the generic Robin API.

The Analytics API lets developers retrieve historical workplace data—including desk, space, people, presence, and related exports—and build custom reports with tools like PowerBI, Looker, or Tableau.

How to bring Robin data into your analytics tool

Use the Analytics API to generate and download CSV data.
Import the CSV into your data warehouse or BI tool. Examples:
- How to load desk export data into Redshift
- How to load desk export data into Snowflake
Connect your data warehouse to your BI tool.
Explore the data in your BI tool.

Analytics API Reference

Use POST to request data preparation (returns an export ID). Then poll the GET endpoint with the export_id every 10 seconds until data is ready (2xx response). GET returns 404 until ready.

Authentication

See Robin API docs for authentication details and token generation.

Error handling

400: Input parameter issues.
404: Export not ready.
429: Rate limit exceeded (max 30 POSTs per minute).
