Dissecting Report Metadata

 
Share

What I want to do is pretty simple, but I can't seem to find a way to do it. I need to take report metadata and extract from it:

  • API names of objects from which the report extracts data
  • API names of fields on that objects
  • Applied filters

What I essentially need is to take a report and construct a set of SOQL queries that will pull from SFDC exactly the same data as the report. It's more or less clear with custom fields: Custom Fields

But when it comes to standard fields and objects, I'm at a loss, how do I extract actual API name of the field from those cryptic names (e.g. LEAD_OWNER)? Fields in metadata
