Reports

Overview

InMobi Exchange Analytics is a new reporting portal for demand partners and client-facing teams to analyze performance metrics and discover supply on InMobi Exchange in a visual and intuitive user interface.

Home Screen

There are two data views on the home screen.

Data Cubes: These are the interactive pivot tables to help you perform custom analytics. Each data cube is purpose-built to address specific use cases.
Dashboard: Frequently used data tables and visualizations saved as a dashboard.

The dashboards will be updated every hour with the latest data from 10-12 hours prior. There may be a minor difference between the numbers in this portal and the invoice. In this case, the invoicing numbers should be considered final for billing purposes.

Data Cubes

There are 4 data cubes for users, each created for specific use cases – Performance Analytics, Creative Approval Status, Deal Health Metrics, and Inventory Discovery. All data cubes except Inventory Discovery are specific to the bidder accounts corresponding to your access.

Each of these data cubes can be viewed in 2 ways:

Data Cube Classic: A simplistic way to explore data.
Data Cube 2.0: This combines dimensional flexibility with powerful visualization capabilities.

Performance Analytics

Perform an in-depth analysis of the traffic you receive and your bidding landscape to optimize performance.

Creative Approval Status

To generate reports and view a list of all creative rejections and reasons, follow the instructions below:

In the FILTER field on the top, select the Time to filter using the date range (preferably keep this to the last 24-48 hours, or 7 days maximum).
Select DENIED as the status.
In the SHOW field, select Creative Id and Rejection Reason.
To download data to CSV or Excel, click the download icon at the top right corner.

For more information on reasons for creative rejections, see Creative Rejections.

By default, the cube pre-loads with Ad Requests, Ad Responses, Wins, Ad Impressions, and Spends for all deals for the selected bidder.

Inventory Discovery
