The following shows how to generate the prolexic-network-health-monitoring-top-talkers-samples report using either the Reporting API's Generate a report POST operation or the Get a cacheable report GET operation. Details about each report's supported products, metrics, filters, and available data intervals are also available dynamically by running the API's Get a report type operation, also shown below. See also other available reports.
