BPXML Syntax and Samples
You can create a custom BPXML report template and use it to export CSV data. This section explains the syntax and structure of BPXML report templates.
Syntax
The top level "BPcsvReport" element contains optional "parameters" and "queryString" sub-elements.
"queryString" is a common SQL statement, and it can contain some parameters.
Parameter Types
The following is the full set of supported parameters:
- "agent" – agent selector
- "agentlist" – agent multiple selector
- "end_time"
- "service" – service selector
- "servicelist" – service multiple selector
- "start_time"
- "team” – team selector
- "teamlist" – team multiple selector
- "timeframe" subtypes:
- "start"
- "end" (only one pair per report) – start and end dates selector
- "string" - an arbitrary string value
Sample BPXML Report

<BPcsvReport version="1.0" resourceBundle="com.brightpattern.reports.oob_reports">
<parameters>
<parameter name="start_time" type="timeframe" subtype="start"/>
<parameter name="end_time" type="timeframe" subtype="end"/>
<parameter name="login_id" type="agent" />
</parameters>
<queryString>
<![CDATA[
SELECT
start_time,
first_name,
last_name,
num_calls_in,
num_calls_answered,
team_name
FROM agent_performance
WHERE start_time > $P{start_time} AND login_id=$P{login_id}
]]>
</queryString>
</BPcsvReport>
Examples
The following are examples of various types of BPXML reports. Values that differ from the Sample BPXML Report given above are shown in pink.
"agentlist" Usage Sample
In this sample, parameter agentlist is being used to add agent data to the Agent Performance report.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

]]>
</queryString>
</BPcsvReport>
"call_detail" Usage Sample
