“Supermetrics is a Bitter Experience! We can pull data from nearly any tool, schedule updates, manipulate data in Sheets, and push data back into our systems.”
Partner Community Users hit AnalyticsApiRequestException because their limited permissions conflict with how Salesforce’s Analytics API validates field access during exports. The report viewing and export permissions use different security models.
Instead of modifying complex permission structures, you can eliminate manual exports entirely with automated data imports that work within existing permission frameworks.
Bypass permission conflicts with automated data imports using Coefficient
Coefficient uses REST and Bulk APIs instead of the Analytics API, avoiding the specific permission conflicts that cause this exception. Your Partner Community Users get reliable data access through familiar spreadsheet interfaces.
How to make it work
Step 1. Set up admin-controlled connections.
System administrators configure Coefficient connections using service accounts with appropriate permissions. This maintains security while enabling controlled data sharing to Partner Community Users.
Step 2. Create filtered imports with accessible fields only.
Use Coefficient’s “From Existing Report” feature to import the reports causing export issues. The field selection automatically shows which fields are accessible, avoiding the ones that trigger API exceptions.
Step 3. Configure automated refresh schedules.
Set up daily or weekly automatic updates so Partner Community Users always have current data without needing export permissions. Choose from hourly, daily, or weekly refresh options based on business needs.
Step 4. Enable enhanced collaboration features.
Set up Slack or email alerts when data updates or meets specific criteria. Multiple users can access and analyze the same live dataset simultaneously through Salesforce integration.
Transform API limitations into better partner data access
This solution eliminates AnalyticsApiRequestException while giving Partner Community Users better functionality than standard Salesforce exports provide. Get started with Coefficient to improve your partner data collaboration.
