Create an endpoint for retrieving list of Line Item Subsets in the model. Also, we need an endpoint to see which line items are included into the subset.

Currently "Retrieve lists" Endpoint returns only an array of lists which contain only "id" and "name" information.

[
  {
    "id": "101000000000",
    "name": "Organization"
  },
  {
    "id": "101000000001",
    "name": "opportunities"
  },
]

For my use case, I need to find out which lists have Selective Access. There are two ways to do that:

1. Export "Users" page and extract list name from columns.
2. Use "Retrieve list metadata" for each list from "Retrieve lists".

The first approach is more time-efficient, but requires creation of Export Action in advance.

My idea is to create "includeDetails" parameter to request. Similar parameters exist in "Retrieve models", "List workspaces" and other Endpoints.

The output for request with "includeDetails=true" as I see it:

[
  {
    "id": "101000000000",
    "name": "Organization",
    "metadata": {
      …
    }
  },
  {
    "id": "101000000001",
    "name": "opportunities",
    "metadata": {
      …
    }
  },
]

If you are reading this and have any suggestions on how this Idea can be even better, feel free to share.

Hello!

 

There are many opportunities in Anaplan API, but still there are possibilities for development.

Me and my team think that it would be very convenient to be able to export model history, users page and roles page (accesses to modules, versions, actions, etc.).

 

I know that it is possible to create export actions with those pages, but when we are talking about a big number of models it would be much easier to use separate endpoints for these. 

 

It protects requests for errors (e.g. someone may occasionaly rename/delete export action) and provides an opportunity to gather data for accesses control.

 

I believe that it is possible to implement these features and I hope that it will be done sooner or later.
