Reporting

Kitsu’s API can be used to build custom reports, dashboards, and production metrics by querying events, tasks, estimates, and other production data.

Building Dashboards and Reports

Use the API to power internal dashboards or reporting tools that visualize production data over time.

• Production progress
• Task status summaries
• Artist workload and performance

Querying Task Completion Data

Retrieve task data to analyze when work is completed and by whom.

• Tasks completed per user or department
• Completion times vs. estimates

Aggregated Metrics

Aggregate tasks by status to understand the current state of production.

Tracking Velocity and Throughput

Measure how quickly work is moving through the pipeline.

• Tasks completed per day or week
• Average task duration
• Throughput by team or department

Identifying Production Bottlenecks

Use task status history and events to identify where work is slowing down.

• Tasks spending excessive time in a specific status
• Departments with growing task backlogs

Working with Estimates and Quotas

Leverage estimates and quotas to compare planned vs. actual effort.

• Estimated time vs. actual time spent
• Artist or team quota utilization
• Forecasting remaining work

Exporting Data for External BI Tools

Export Kitsu data for use in third-party analytics and visualization platforms.

• Periodic data extraction
• Transforming API responses into CSV or JSON
• Feeding data into tools like Tableau, Power BI, or Looker
