Hi @Ed Johnsen , you should be able to find all that information right here on Community. Our Developer Group can likely help you with your API questions, while this article offers details on the Brightspace Data Platform:
This article on the Reporting Data Warehouse will probably also be helpful:

Thanks for getting back to me @Joshua van Wijk
I have found that the clarity, ease of access, granularity, and completeness of the documentation for everything that isn't the Application API pales next to the clarity, ease of access, granularity, and completeness of the documentation for the Application API.
Though I had hoped to compare in great detail what is available across the varied Data sources, I would be thrilled to have the following statements verified or falsified.
((I plan to mention this stuff at Fusion 2017 in a talk in the Extensibility lab and want to make sure I have it right.))
"The Application API provides all of the same data that can be found in all other Brightspace data sources combined, except for: quiz text, quiz answer text, survey text, survey answer text, and clickstream data. In addition to providing nearly all of the data found in all other sources combined, the Application API allows you access to the contents of files throughout your course and provides you access to the contents of course directories."
Please let me know if there are any slight or major changes needed to the above quoted statement. Thanks for any assistance.

Hi @Ed Johnsen I have reached out to a Subject Matter Expert who is more knowledgeable than I, and we will try to get you an answer before Fusion.

Hey @Ed Johnsen !
Your description:
"The Application API provides all of the same data that can be found in all other Brightspace data sources combined, except for: quiz text, quiz answer text, survey text, survey answer text, and clickstream data. In addition to providing nearly all of the data found in all other sources combined, the Application API allows you access to the contents of files throughout your course and provides you access to the contents of course directories."
Is correct. If you ever do find discrepancies from this description in our developer platform, please let us know!
