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.
