I'm trying to get Report data about a Sent email through the API. I can see the report at:
www.example.com/civicrm/mailing/report?mid=388&reset=1
And I can get data corresponding to the email from the API explorer as follows:
But I can't seem to access the civiMail report with the API. I have tried a few options but can't seem to find it. Any tips?
I think you're looking for the ReportTemplate.getrows API call. You can see examples of its use in the API explorer's built-in help (also available on Github). More examples exist in the tests folder, since the most common use of this API is to create tests for reports.
UPDATE: As @demerit points out, this answer isn't really correct - but it CAN be :) All(?) of the info on this mailing report is also available from the "Mailing Summary" report (for the stats) and the "Mailing Detail" report (if you need drilled-down data on click-throughs etc.). So I recommend Demerit's answer if you're writing an extension, but my answer if you need to collect this data over REST.
You might have to do something like this: https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/blob/master/CRM/Mailing/Page/Report.php#L107-L110
For the $this variable, you can probably use a dummy, e.g.
$page = new CRM_Mailing_Page_Report();
$page->_mailing_id = 388; // or whatever number
$report = CRM_Mailing_BAO_Mailing::report($page->_mailing_id);
CRM_Mailing_BAO_Mailing::getMailingContent($report, $page);
Lower down it assigns $report to the smarty template, and you can see how it's used at https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/blob/master/templates/CRM/Mailing/Page/Report.tpl, so you should be able to do the same thing in php, accessing the member elements of $report.
