Sales History through API

Hi, is there a way to access the data in this report through the API? Report found in LS Interface -> Reports -> Roll-Up Reports -> Products -> Sales History (No Filters applied).

If this is available through the API, can you give an example of a query in Python?

Thanks! Max.

    You'd have to generate it yourself after pulling data from sales, sale lines, items, itemshops maybe something else. Let me know if you have questions on those queries at all.

    I ended up writing a basic python wrapper for fetching data from LS and use it to feed a database I setup using django that also pulls in data from other platforms. Then I can write easy queries with complex joins and I don't have to wait for the rate limited API.

    Weird it looks like my earlier comment didn't show up.

    Anyway, you will likely need to build it yourself by pulling data from the sales, salelines, items and itemshops endpoints/relations. I've setup a regularly scheduled fetch that updates a database that also receives data from shopify and allows me to run reports and other tasks more easily. This is using a little python package I setup to communicate with LS PM me if you want more info

    Cool thanks! That's exactly what I'm working on but was hoping there was an easier way. Will do :)
