## Description

Retrieve a single Expensify report by ID, returning a structured object with the report metadata plus its complete expense line-item list (per-expense amount, currency, merchant, date, category, receiptURL, etc.). NOT a file. Implemented via the Report Exporter with reportIDList set to the given ID and an embedded Freemarker JSON template read in memory. Use **List Reports** to discover report IDs. This action also covers per-expense reads: the returned transactionList contains full expense details, so a separate expense-by-ID lookup is unnecessary. [See the documentation](https://integrations.expensify.com/Integration-Server/doc/#report-exporter)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `reportId` | `string` | Yes | The report ID to fetch. Accepts the base-10 numeric ID or the base-62 ID shown on the Expensify website (e.g. R123456789). Run List Reports to find valid IDs. |

## Run it

**MCP**

```ts
import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js"
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp.js"
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const accessToken = await pd.rawAccessToken

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "expensify",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "expensify-get-report",
  arguments: {
    reportId: "Report ID",
  },
})
```

**TypeScript**

```ts
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "expensify-get-report",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    expensify: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    reportId: "Report ID",
  },
})

console.log(result)
```
