Resources¶

This article describes DSP Reporting API resources, endpoints, and services. Using this API, you can create and read reports.

Overview¶

The DSP Reporting API exposes three resources:

The Create Reports resource enables you to create a new report based on parameters specified in the Reporting object.
The Read Report resource returns the report status and a URL from which you can download the completed report in CSV format.
The Close Of Books resource returns an indication for book closed for specific advertiser.

All requests require a valid access token. To learn more, see Generate New Access Tokens.

Endpoints¶

The Verizon Media DSP API reporting endpoint accepts requests for creating and retrieving reports and report statuses.

/yamplus_api/extreport/

Calls to generate a new report or return the report status and URL depending on the method:

To create a new report, call the endpoint using the POST method and specify the report payload.
To retrieve report status and a URL, call the endpoint using the GET method and specify the customerReportId.

/yamplus_api/extreport/cob

Call to retrieve close of book status:

To retrieve close of book status call the endpoint using the GET method and specify advertiserId and day

Resources¶

The Reporting object comprises multiple objects, which consist of separate objects. The following resource objects are described separately:

reportOption
limitSpec

intervalTypeId
filterOption

having
spec

Reporting Object¶

All Verizon Media DSP API reports are defined in the body of a Reporting object that is submitted to the Create Report resource.

The Reporting object consists of attributes that enable you to define the advertiser account associated with the data, report dimensions and metrics, reporting periods, and the granularity of report data.

Table 1 Reporting Payload Parameters¶
Parameter	Description	Data Type
`reportOption`	Specifies the dimensions of data and metrics returned in the report, dimension-value filters for selecting impression events based on dimension values, and metric-value filters for selecting groups of events based on summary statistics. To learn more, see Report Option Object.	`object`
`limitSpec`	Specifies the number of rows returned in the report. To learn more, see Limit Spec Object.	`object`
`dateTypeId`	Specifies the reporting period, the span of time covered by the data set. Options include: `1`: Today `2`: Yesterday `3`: This Week `4`: Last 7 Days `5`: Last Week `6`: Last 14 Days `7`: Month to Date `8`: Last 30 Days `9`: Last Month `10`: All Time `11`: Custom Range To learn more, see Reporting Periods.	`integer`
`intervalTypeId`	Specifies the granularity of report intervals. Options include: `1`: Cumulative. Returns a single row in which each column displays data for the entire range. `2`: Day. Returns one row for each calendar day in the specified date range. `3`: Month. Returns one row for each full or partial month in the specified date range. `4`: Week. Returns one row for each calendar week in the specified date range. `5`: Hour. Returns one row for each hour that has data. To learn more, see Report Intervals.	`integer`

Report Option Object¶

Whenever you create a new report, you must specify report details in the reportOption object.

The reportOption object identifies the dimensions of data and metrics returned in the report, dimension-value filters for selecting impression events based on dimension values, and metric-value filters for selecting groups of events based on summary statistics.

Table 2 Report Option Object Fields¶
Fields	Description	Data Type
`timezone`	Specifies a string that defines time zone of report data. If no `timezone` value is specified, the `America/New_York` attribute is used. Options include: `America/Los_Angeles` `America/Denver` `America/Chicago` `America/El_Salvador` `America/Mexico_City` `America/New_York` `America/Bogota` `America/Lima` `America/Halifax` `America/Puerto_Rico` `America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires` `America/Santiago` `America/Sao_Paulo` `Etc/GMT` `Europe/London` `Europe/Paris` `Asia/Jerusalem` `Asia/Debai` `Asia/Karachi` `Asia/Dhaka` `Asia/Jakarta` `Australia/Perth` `Asia/Shanghai` `Asia/Tokyo` `Australia/Sydney` `Pacific/Auckland` Note: The time zone defines an offset value that must be taken into account when defining the `startDate` and `endDate` of custom report periods. If the report is for a custom date range (`dateTypeId` = `11`, you must specify an offset value in custom date range values. To learn more, see Time Zones.	`string`

Report Option Object Example¶

The reportOption object specifies a report with custom date range (dateTypeId = 11), which enables you to specify custom start (startDate) and end (endDate) dates for report data.

Note that if you do specify a custom date range, you must ensure that the startDate and endDate values include the correct offsets for the specified timezone. The Asia/Shanghai time zone requires an offset of UTC+8. Consequently, the offset is appended to the specified startDate and endDate values.

{
  "reportOption": {
    "timezone": "Asia/Shanghai",
    "currency": 3,
    "dimensionTypeIds": [ 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 64 ],
    "filterOptions": [
      {
        "dimensionTypeId": 64,
        "isExcluded": false,
        "includeValues": [ {"id": 7} ]
