Hi Ben, There are several existing solutions for automating Excel reporting, including Tatvic and my company ShufflePoint. These can provide coverage for your reporting needs and give you some breathing room while you investigate using the API directly. Feel free to contact me (chris AT shufflepoint.com) if you'd like to try our report automation solution. - Chris
