Tableau - API Call to Show Everything a User Has Access To

is there an API call, or a link of API calls in which I can show the following structure

Sites User Has Access To
 - Projects User Has Access To
 -- Workbooks User Has Access to
 --- Views User Has Access To (Including Thumbnails)

I'm currently using a mix of the API and directly accessing (not strictly true but that's another story) the PostgreSQL DB. It works and it s pretty neat hack, but I'd rather avoid hacks

I was using 8.3 but now on the latest v9 release

Thanks

I'm using Tableau API to do this, it seems pretty straightforward, but maybe I'm missing something.

Following API reference: Tableau REST API reference

  1. Sign in and impersonate, use retrieved token in following API calls
  2. Query sites
  3. For each site query workbooks
  4. For each workbook query views
  5. For each view download preview image
  6. Sign out
