Custom Reports


Custom reports is a tool for uploading detailed agency clients statistics to a file.

Statistics are available starting from July 01, 2017. The maximum statistical interval is 1 year (365 days). If you want to view statistics for a longer period, do it in parts.
For example, to view all statistics for the period from 07.01.2017 to 07.01.2020, first upload data for 07.01.2017, then 07.01.2018-07.01.2019, etc.

Statistics are shown in Moscow time.

If you upload a file over a long period of time and for a large number of clients, be prepared for a large file size: try setting a short period of time (2-3 days) first, or select a small number of clients. The maximum size of the uploaded file is 200 000 lines, and the remaining lines will not be included in the file.

To subscribe to reports:

  • for yesterday - a report will be generated every day, it will get data for the last day.
  • last week - a report will be generated at the beginning of each week, it will include data for the past 7 days.

You can download reports from the table or additionally receive by mail in XLSX format - for this, specify your email address in the "Email" field.
When you create a subscription to a regular report, the task (a line with an arrow) and the reports created for this task will appear in the table. Regular reports will be grouped in a table according to the task for which they were built.

The report creation task has the "schedule" type specified in the table, and the reports built for this task have the "one-time" type.

Sample report
Please note that if interests are selected, there will be no summary data in the report. This is due to the fact that users who have seen or clicked on an ad may have several interests. So one user's click or display have several interests, which are incorrect to add.

Column headings are downloaded in the language assigned in the "Profile" section.
