Is there a way I can generate automatic reports through the API on a weekly basis? I know there is a way with GUI, but is there a way for the API to generate automatic reports?

Yes. You can find the full documentation HERE which breaks it down to how you would request different kinds of reports such as the Custom report. Keep in mind that the request is simply going to respond with the Job ID and you then have to use that Job ID to get the report. It isn't the cleanest solution but it can be easily scripted.

Hey you know how the email scheduled delivery are in pdf format.Is there any way to turn those in a csv format. I know Palo Alto limits it, but is there any script or code that needs to be implemented in order to turn those pdf files into csv files?

Within the Report Group you should be able to select CSV format reports if you scroll through the list of available reports.

So will this send an email to the people as a csv file then by this way?

and those will be exactly the same as pdf right? but only in csv format

Yes the report will display the same information; it'll simply be in CSV format instead of a nice PDF.

But am having problems generating csv reports I don't know why, like I have a predefined report called top attackers, and i do not see that in the csv section. What can I do?

Predefined reports are different, you'll only ever be offered those in PDF format.

No; the predefined reports aren't accessible in CSV format at all. You could rebuild the report as a 'custom report' and then you could schedule it as needed, but that's about as good as you are going to get.
