They contain pure data, just rows. - Reports. It's visualizations for data. Actual state of report can be pinned to dashboard. - Dashboard. Set of pinned visualizations.

- diego18New MemberI like this idea. I also believe the API should allow the creation and retrieval of dashboards' tiles (I've just submitted those ideas) so that we could access a static image of the current snapshot.
- colin2New MemberYes, we have a lot of clients who would be able to use this to pull data.
- rpeNew MemberWould also like to be able to grab the data from a tile via API (instead of manually via the Export Data option)
