# Reporting API

This API allows you to interact programmatically with the [Reporting]({{< relref "../enterprise/reporting.md" >}}) feature.

> Reporting is only available in Grafana Enterprise. Read more about [Grafana Enterprise]({{< relref "../enterprise" >}}).


## Send a report

> Only available in Grafana Enterprise v7.0+.

> This API endpoint is experimental and may be deprecated in a future release. On deprecation, a migration strategy will be provided and the endpoint will remain functional until the next major release of Grafana.
