Hi there,  
We’re trying to use HubSpot dashboards to have reports where we can see the increase of customers over a period of time.

According to the HubSpot API information it’s not possible to do this, but we were wondering if anyone has had success trying to do something similar.

So, for example:  
We would like to see:  
Total customers in january  
Total customers in february  
But also be able to see the growth in this over a period of time.

Hi @Otheus ,

I hope all is well with you 🙂

While for now it is not possible to see the growth of _e.g. customers_ over a period of time via the HubSpot Analytics API, you can retrieve monthly summarize report by setting the time period e.g:

`api.hubapi.com/analytics/v2/reports/totals/summarize/monthly?hapikey=demo&start=20190501&end=20190531`

- This will return all the analytics for the month of May

and

`api.hubapi.com/analytics/v2/reports/totals/summarize/monthly?hapikey=demo&start=20190601&end=20190630`

- This will return all the analytics for the month of June

With the return response, we can see the number of customers for each respective month

Hope this helps!
