BasicReportRequest

The BasicReportRequest object represents a request to generate a report for a specified reporting period. If you do not select a date range then you must specify start and end dates.

For example, suppose you want to run a report starting January 15, 2007.

  • To obtain one day's worth of data in US Eastern Standard Time (EST), specify:
    startDate: 2007-01-15T00:00:00-05:00
    endDate: 2007-01-15T00:00:00-05:00
  • To obtain two day's worth of data in US Pacific Standard Time (PST), specify:
    startDate: 2007-01-15T00:00:00-08:00
    endDate: 2007-01-16T00:00:00-08:00
  • To obtain one day's worth of data in Japan Standard Time, specify:
    startDate: 2007-01-15T00:00:00+09:00
    endDate: 2007-01-15T00:00:00+09:00

Start and end dates have a day element (2007-01-15) and time element (00:00:00). However, reports are run by day, not by 24-hour time period, nor in smaller time blocks. Always enter 00:00:00 for the time element; if you enter a different value, the time element will default to 00:00:00.
