Retrieve the Cost Benefit Analysis for a Specific Idea
One of the most important aspects of the Automation Pipeline is seeing the Return on Investment, which you can easily find
and manage in the Cost Benefit Analysis page from Automation Hub still the ROI data needs to be aggregated and exported into
external systems in order to be further calculated and processed. To easily retrieve this information you can use the /cba
API call.
The following request exemplifies how to retrieve the Cost Benefit Analysis details for one of your ideas.
-
Adding the id of the Automation Idea is mandatory for this call. To retrieve it first make a GET Automation Idea call.
-
Please also check the GET Automation Idea call example.
For this example, we'll retrieve the Cost Benefit Analysis entered for an idea that has the identification number 29 (id=29).
