Hi all,
i wanted to ask what are the main differences between Data Warehouse and Reporting API in order to understand which is the best to use.
We have to export a csv file to an external data lake (they need aggregated metrics with a specified granularity).
I see less effort in implementing Data Warehouse export to an FTP location, but can it be more efficient the Reporting API?

Not all components and segments are compatible with Data Warehouse (Discussed here- Components | Segments). As an alternative Reporting API steps in. Reporting API 2.0 has sure advantages over the Reporting API 1.4.
