dpgaspar opened a new issue #8687: [WiP] SIP-31 New dashboards API URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/issues/8687 ## [SIP] Proposal for new dashboards API ### Motivation While moving away from MVC and specifically `ModelView`'s we need to create the foundations for supporting React components and plain REST API functionality. During this transition I propose we take the chance to reorganize the current API that lives on `Superset` class ( exposed on `/superset/*`). Final goals are: - Restructure Superset's API - Create alternatives to `/superset/*` API endpoints, refactor the existing functionality respecting a RESTful API design. - Prepare/Create base CRUD API endpoints that can eventually replace MVC `ModelView`'s and support future React components - Superset API is fully documented using OAS 3.X with an optional swagger UI FAB's new API highlights: - API resource protection using JWT and/or flask-login signed cookies (current authentication method). API defaults to JWT only. - Optional CRUD RESTful API using similar class overrides as `ModelViews`. - When using auto CRUD we get filter, ordering, pagination and i18n for free. - Delegate base API support like handling exceptions to FAB. - Leverage Rison style URI arguments (we can use JSON also) out of the box with optional JSON schema validation. - OpenAPI automatic spec generation for CRUD, and easy generation for BaseApi method endpoints. ### Proposed Change Migrate and create new CRUD API endpoint for dashboards. This change proposes to create the following endpoints: | New endpoint | HTTP method | Old endpoint | |----------------------------------------|-------------|-----------------------------------------------| | /api/v1/dashboard/<id>/published | POST | /superset/dashboard/<dashboard_id>/published/ | | /api/v1/dashboard/user_created | GET | /superset/created_dashboards/<user_id>/ | | /api/v1/dashboard/user_favorite | GET | /superset/fave_dashboards/<user_id>/ | | /api/v1/dashboard/<id>/slice | POST | /superset/add_slices/<dashboard_id>/ | | /api/v1/dashboard/<id>/copy | POST | /superset/copy_dash | | /api/v1/dashboard/import | POST | /superset/import_dashboards | | /api/v1/dashboard/<id> | PUT | MVC and old API /dashboard/* | | /api/v1/dashboard/<id> | DELETE | MVC and old API /dashboard/* | | /api/v1/dashboard/ | POST | MVC and old API /dashboard/* | | /api/v1/dashboard/_info | GET | MVC and old API /dashboard/* | | /api/v1/dashboard/ | GET | MVC and old API /dashboard/* | | /api/v1/dashboard/<id> | GET | MVC and old API /dashboard/* | | /api/v1/dashboard/export | GET | MVC action | ### New or Changed Public Interfaces The current dashboard API's endpoints located on `class Superset` will continue to exist but would log a deprecation warning when accessed. List of current endpoint's to be "migrated": - /superset/dashboard/<dashboard_id>/published/ - /superset/created_dashboards/<user_id>/ - /superset/fave_dashboards/<user_id>/ - /superset/fave_dashboards_by_username/<username>/ (Just deprecation warning, this endpoint is probably not used) - /superset/add_slices/<dashboard_id>/ - /superset/copy_dash All React/JS references to these endpoints would be migrated to the new endpoints ### Migration Plan and Compatibility This is a side by side migration, the old API would start issuing a deprecation warning with a target version for removal. Ex: "This superset API is deprecated and will be removed in version 1.0.0"
