Reports API

Reports are feedback items submitted by users or external systems. Reports can be promoted to issues, dismissed, or reordered on the board. External systems use project tokens to submit reports via the API.

Requires the Reports feature

Report creation is only available when the Reports feature is enabled for your workspace. If it is disabled, requests return 403 with "feature_restricted": true.

Submitting reports from an external system?

The Sending Reports guide walks through minting a token, posting a report, and triaging it on the board.

Create Report

POST /api/projects/{projectId}/reports

Creates a new report. For external submission over the API, authenticate with a project token carrying the report:create ability — personal access tokens cannot create reports through the API. Reports created this way are tagged source: 1 (Api) with created_by: null.

Reports filed by a signed-in user inside the kendo app are tagged source: 0 (Manual), with created_by set to that user.

Request Fields

FieldTypeRequiredDescription
titlestringYesReport title, max 255 characters
descriptionstringYesReport description, max 65,535 characters
author_namestringNoName of the external reporter

}

With File Attachments

When uploading files, use multipart/form-data instead of JSON:

bash
curl -X POST https://{tenant}.kendo.dev/api/projects/1/reports \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-token" \
  -F "title=Screenshot of the bug" \
  -F "description=See attached screenshot for details." \
  -F "author_name=External CI" \
  -F "files[0]=@screenshot.png" \
  -F "files[1]=@error-log.png"

The response includes attachments_count reflecting the number of files stored with the report.

Promote Reports

POST /api/projects/{projectId}/reports/promote

Promotes one or more reports into a single issue. The reports are marked as promoted and linked to the newly created issue. Returns the updated reports.

Dismiss Report

POST /api/projects/{projectId}/reports/{reportId}/dismiss

  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-token"
json
{
  "id": 1,

}

Reorder Reports

POST /api/projects/{projectId}/reports/reorder

Updates the display order of reports. Each report's position in the array becomes its new order value (index 0 = order 0, index 1 = order 1, etc.). Returns all reports with updated order.

Request Fields

  }
]

Delete Report

DELETE /api/projects/{projectId}/reports/{reportId}

Returns 204 No Content on success.

bash
curl -X DELETE https://{tenant}.kendo.dev/api/projects/1/reports/1 \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-token"

Attachments

Reports support file attachments (images, documents, and other allowed file types). Use these endpoints to manage files after a report has been created — for uploading files at report-creation time, include them in the Create Report files[] field instead.

Upload Attachment

POST /api/projects/{projectId}/reports/{reportId}/attachments

Uploads a single file and links it to the report as a polymorphic attachment. Requires multipart/form-data with a file form field.

FieldTypeRequiredDescription
filefileYesMax 20 MB. Allowed: pdf, doc(x), xls(x), ppt(x), odt/ods/odp, txt, csv, json, xml, md, jpg/jpeg, png, gif, webp, bmp, tiff, mp4, mp3, wav, ogg

Images are automatically converted to WebP server-side for efficient storage; the returned filename reflects the stored file name.

bash
curl -X POST https://{tenant}.kendo.dev/api/projects/1/reports/1/attachments \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-token" \
  -F "file=@screenshot.png"
json
{
  "id": 42,
  "filename": "screenshot.webp",
  "mime_type": "image/webp",
  "size": 28417,
  "user_id": 4,
  "created_at": "2026-04-22T09:15:00.000000Z"
}

List Attachments

GET /api/projects/{projectId}/reports/{reportId}/attachments

Returns all attachments linked to a report, ordered by creation time (oldest first).

bash
curl https://{tenant}.kendo.dev/api/projects/1/reports/1/attachments \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-token"
json
[
  {
    "id": 42,
    "filename": "screenshot.webp",
    "mime_type": "image/webp",
    "size": 28417,
    "user_id": 4,
    "created_at": "2026-04-22T09:15:00.000000Z"
  }
]

Download Attachment

GET /api/projects/{projectId}/reports/{reportId}/attachments/{attachmentId}/download

Streams the attachment file bytes with a Content-Disposition: attachment header.

bash
curl https://{tenant}.kendo.dev/api/projects/1/reports/1/attachments/42/download \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-token" \
  -o screenshot.webp
