The Scenario
Someone on the data team built a reporting dashboard last quarter that was supposed to pull from a UniOne event dump. The person who built it left the company. The dashboard is broken. You inherited the ticket. All you actually need is the raw event data — clicks, opens, bounces — from Q1 2024, landed in an Excel workbook so the BI tool can pick it up from there.
The bad version:
- Figure out that UniOne event dumps work asynchronously — you have to request the dump, then poll for a download link, then download the file once it is ready
- Find the API documentation for the dump endpoint, work out the authentication headers, make the request via a REST client
- Wait. Check back. Wait more. Download the file when it is ready.
- Open the CSV, which has 14 columns and roughly 80,000 rows, and decide which ones the BI tool actually needs
- Import the filtered version into the workbook, fix the date format, rename headers to match what the dashboard expects
The ticket is marked urgent. The dashboard has been broken for two weeks.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Excel workbook. It reads the workbook and handles the UniOne event dump lifecycle for you — request, wait, retrieve, write — without you touching the API directly. Open the SheetXAI sidebar and describe the data you need.
Export UniOne email events from last month into this Excel sheet — create the dump, retrieve it when ready, and write one row per event
What You Get
- The dump is created, monitored, and retrieved automatically — SheetXAI waits for the download link without you polling
- Each event lands as one row: timestamp, event type (click, open, bounce, etc.), recipient email, message ID
- The BI tool picks up the workbook from there — no CSV manipulation required
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
You only need bounce events, not the full dump
Create a UniOne event dump for 2024-01-01 through 2024-03-31, retrieve it when ready, filter to only bounce events, and write the results to the Q1 Bounces worksheet with columns for timestamp, recipient, and message ID
The BI tool expects dates in Unix timestamp format
Create a UniOne event dump for last month, retrieve it when ready, convert all timestamps to Unix epoch integers, and write the results to this Excel sheet
You need to join the event data against a recipient list already in the workbook
Create a UniOne event dump for Q1 2024, retrieve it, then for each bounce event in the dump check if the recipient appears in column A of the Recipients worksheet and mark column B of that worksheet "bounced Q1 2024"
Full Q1 event analysis in one pass
Create a UniOne event dump for 2024-01-01 through 2024-03-31, retrieve it when ready, write all events to the Raw Events worksheet with timestamp, type, recipient, and message ID, then create a Summary worksheet with a count of each event type and the top 10 recipients by bounce count
One prompt handles the async lifecycle, the data retrieval, and the summary — no API polling, no CSV import, no pivot table to build by hand.
Try It
Get the 7-day free trial of SheetXAI and open the Excel workbook your BI pipeline reads from, then ask it to pull the UniOne Q1 event dump in one shot. Also useful: the pull-daily-delivery-stats spoke for aggregate metrics, or the UniOne hub for all integration options.
