Getting data on fundraisers' goals and amounts raised so far

 

We'd like to do analytics to track things like progress toward individual fundraisers' fundraising goals. To do this, we'd need to 1) determine whether a person is a fundraiser, 2) get their fundraising goal amount, and 3) add up all of the individual donations that that fundraiser has raised so far.
According to Adriel, there's a "is_fundraiser" field that will be surfaced, so it sounds like that takes care of the first requirement. Is there also a way to get a fundraiser's goal amount, if that's been set in the UI?
Also, in the Donations API documentation, it says we can get information about individual donations in this form:

[

    {

 

      "id": 314,

 

      "amount": "$10.00",

 

      "succeeded_at": "2013-02-21T10:04:15-04:00",

 

      "corporate_contribution": false,

 

      "fec_type": "Contribution",

 

      "donor": {

 

        "id": 8472,

 

        "first_name": "Sarah",

 

        "last_name": "Kerrigan",

 

        "email": "[email protected]"

 

      },

 

      "election": {

 

        "cycle": "2013",

 

        "period": "Primary"

 

      }

 

    }

 

  ]
Besides "donor" is there some field in the Donations API that gives information on the fundraiser who raised that individual donation, so that we can link fundraisers with all of the donations they've raised? Thanks!
