At Jiminny, we believe in empowering our customers by giving you control over your data. Having access to your Jiminny data opens up new possibilities for driving revenue-generating activities. That’s why we provide you with the autonomy and insights you need to make informed, data-driven decisions.

An API (Application Programming Interface) allows different software applications to communicate and exchange data. The Jiminny API enables you to pull information from Jiminny and integrate it with other systems in your technology stack. Our API is a partial REST API, and the data you receive will be in JSON format. For full technical details, visit our documentation.

While we respect anyone with a DIY spirit, we recommend having someone with coding experience (such as a software engineer or developer) handle the API setup, as it requires technical knowledge. Once the API connection between Jiminny and your external applications is established, you’ll also need to connect a database to store the data being retrieved.

We suggest using a BI System or Data Warehouse (DWH), which allows you to efficiently manage the data and generate custom reports or triggers. Most of our customers use a DWH to create centralised, multi-application dashboards for reporting, insights, and alerts. If you need recommendations for setting up a DWH, don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re here to help.

The good news is that once your reporting framework is in place, ongoing data extraction becomes a straightforward process. If you prefer, you can hire a consultant to set up regular, predefined reports for you. However, bear in mind that as we update and enhance the API, you’ll need to adjust your setup accordingly.

One of the primary uses of the Jiminny API is to create detailed reports. By pulling data from Jiminny and other sources, you can generate precise insights into your sales team's performance. For example, you could compare the number of call recordings logged by each sales representative in Jiminny against the call records in your CRM to ensure data accuracy.

You can centralise data from Jiminny and other applications into a single view, giving you a comprehensive overview of your sales team's performance. The advantage of such dashboards is the visibility they provide, allowing you to identify high-performing team members, pinpoint growth opportunities, and spot potential challenges, thereby enabling more strategic decision-making.

While Jiminny’s built-in Team Insights feature is powerful, there may be cases where you need more specific metrics. The API allows you to create customised views and actionable insights tailored to your unique business requirements.

As you gather and analyse data, the ability to act quickly is essential. By integrating the Jiminny API with communication platforms like Slack, email, or SMS, you can set up custom alerts to notify you in real-time about critical events, ensuring you can respond promptly.

The Jiminny API offers a wealth of activity data within a defined period. Accessing this information requires a unique token identifier that will be provided to you, ensuring that only your data is accessible.

Each activity record pulled from Jiminny contains the following information:

You can also set volume thresholds to manage the amount of data pulled. We recommend starting with the top 500-1000 activities to streamline the data retrieval process. It’s better to pull data regularly in manageable batches, rather than doing large annual dumps, which can lead to performance issues.

Note: The data is provided in JSON format, and video content or call recordings are available for download, though these links are only active for 24 hours once issued.
