# API
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As a developer, it's essential that I have access to a clearly documented API
|
||
|
|
(at least) to read and (possibly) to write/update the financial data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Specifically, the need to generate reports and analyze data in new ways is
|
||
|
|
essential, and while many systems try to give some sort of "report builder",
|
||
|
|
which are perhaps useful for some needs, are never adequate to foresee every
|
||
|
|
type of necessary issue.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The API should allow for not only custom reports, but the ability to generate
|
||
|
|
a programmatic analysis. For example, this sort of API would be used to
|
||
|
|
compute the [[public support test for USA 501(c)(3) organizations|UseCases/PublicSupportTest]].
