    description: >-
      The Capterra Click Report API allows software vendors to
      programmatically retrieve historical click data from their
      Capterra pay-per-click (PPC) advertising campaigns. Vendors
      can access click metrics across different software categories,
      countries, and distribution channels. The API uses API key
      authentication obtained through Capterra account managers and
      returns data across all Gartner Digital Markets accounts mapped
      to the vendor, covering Capterra, GetApp, and Software Advice.
