Kaur,
How do you know they are using the API?....I assumed that you knew who it
was....so, if you have investigation going on....there are a few ways...

One could be your User log....if I remember correctly, that identifies the
client used for connection....if they haven't spoofed it, or haven't set it
at all, it would show up as unknown client which would be one way to see it

you could also setup some sort of 'filter trap'.....an api client doesn't
fire active links...so, the only workflow you could use would be
filters.....you could try setting up a filter that fires on get for various
forms you believe they are querying....this would only work if they were
issuing 'getEntry' calls...but not if they were issuing 'getListEntry'
calls, because that doesn't trigger each individual record....but a filter
on get that checks the client string and logs somewhere if it's not in a
pre-prescribed list...user, mid-tier, and such....

You say they are just using it to generate reports?.....what sort of
problem are you trying to solve exactly....they are a valid user of your
system (they would need to be otherwise they wouldn't be able to log in)
and they have valid access to the data (otherwise they wouldn't be able to
query it)....are they causing performance issues in your system or
something?
