Verified steps

  1. Send a GET request to /cubejs-api/v1/meta with your Cube API token in the Authorization header to retrieve the full data model metadata including all cubes, measures, and dimensions
  2. Parse the cubes array in the response to identify the measures and dimensions relevant to your query
  3. Construct a JSON query object with a measures array, optional dimensions array, optional filters, and a timeDimensions block specifying the dimension name and granularity
  4. POST the query object to /cubejs-api/v1/load and handle the 200 response containing a data array of result rows; if a 200 is returned with a load: false flag, poll the same endpoint again after the suggested wait period
  5. Use the /v1/sql endpoint instead of /v1/load if you need to inspect the generated SQL before executing, which is useful for debugging pre-aggregation selection
