is this the right way to use tl3 progress for reporting?
i’m trying to use tl3 progress as part of a member status report and i want to make sure i’m reading it the right way.
our team cares about showing people how close they are to the next level, but i do not want to build on top of the wrong numbers. is there a supported way to pull the progress information for tl2 users without guessing from the UI? thanks for any direction.

Yes. Use the same data source the trust level UI uses instead of scraping the screen. If you need it in a report, the safer path is to read the user trust level fields and the associated progress values from the backend rather than infer them from topic activity. That keeps your report aligned with the actual promotion logic.

we did something similar for an internal dashboard and the direct data lookup was much easier to maintain than trying to mirror the page.
