Wave Platform - APIOverview
Based on the Connect/Chatter API● Works in same way as other Force.com APIs● Uses Salesforce session IDs (OAuth, SAML, etc.)● Includes URLs for linking to related resources● Supports CRUD (GET, PUT, POST, PATCH, DELETE) on most asset types● Apps, Dashboards, Lenses, Datasets, Templates, and XMD
Dynamic Queries● Execute Salesforce Analytics Query Language (SAQL) queries● Returns query results as native JSON (no ugly XML-JSON)
High Scalability and Performance● Able to scale much higher than Force.com counterparts● Higher limits than most Force.com APIs
Wave Platform - APIGA Spring ‘16
SAQL - Salesforce Analytics Query Language● Used to access data in Wave Analytics datasets● Supports statement chaining● Statements
○ Keywords (filter, group, order, etc.)
○ Identifiers (accounts, ‘Id’, etc.)
○ Operators ( +, -, ==, >, &&, etc.)
○ Literals (16, 32.4, “My Results”)
Wave Platform - APIQuery
q = load "0FbB00000000M0cKAE/0FcB0000000DAvWKAW";
q = group q by (ProductName);
q = foreach q generate ProductName, sum(TotalPrice) as sum_Price,
percentile_cont(0.95) within group (order by 'TotalPrice') as
'sum_95Percentile';
q = limit q 5;

Supported Features Upgrade/Push Upgrade Wave components Delete/Deprecate a Wave component from a managed package LMA license control for all Wave components except Dataflow Trialforce
• Wave Apps, Dashboards, Lenses, and Dataflows components will replicate to Trial Orgs
• Can not replicate the Datasets themselves
Unsupported Features Packaging for user XMD or Datafile - available after Winter ‘17 Obfuscation/IP protection
• Currently all JSON is visible via the public API for components installed in a subscriber org
