Reporting API

circle-info

This guide is intended for Advertisers using DT Offer Wall Reporting API.

This Reporting API enables you to access all the reporting data related to monetization of your DT Offer Wall. You can query multiple metrics such as revenue and impressions across the available dimensions and even implement filters.

For supported metrics and dimensions for Advertisers, see DT Offer Wall Report Dimensions for Advertisers.

DT Offer Wall Reporting API Workflow

The publisher makes a POST request using the Client ID and Client Secret to receive the Access Token, as described in Step 1.

Once the request is successful and the Access Token is received, an API Request is made to create a custom report as described in Step 2. A successful response will contain a URL leading to a file that will be populated with the custom report. More details can be found in Step 3.

Step 1: Obtaining the Access Token

DT's Reporting API uses Access Tokens for authentication purposes. To obtain your Access Token, you must first get your Client ID and Client Secret.

Obtaining your Client ID and Client Secret

  1. Sign in to the DT Consolearrow-up-right.

  2. On the left menu bar, click Users.

  3. Click User Profile to display the Reporting API Keys.

  4. Click User Profile to display the Reporting API Keys.

    If necessary, you can click Revoke to delete the current credentials. You are returned to the API Keys window.

  5. Click Generate New Keys to receive new credential.

Keep your Client ID and Client Secret safe, as they can be reused in the future.

Using your Client ID and Client Secret make a POST request to receive your Access Token.

The base End Point for the entire process is: https://reporting.fyber.com

Step 2: Reporting API Request

Use the access token you received in Step 1 to request your custom report.

The request is made up of five individual sections:

  • Source

  • Date Range

  • Metrics

  • Splits

  • Filters (include)

Request Example

Source

The below is an example from the DT Offer Wall report. The source can either "performance" or "event" - depending on the view you want to see.

Performance based view. Every action/revenue metric, is attributed to the time of the click and impression. This view allows a clear understanding of how your manipulations impact performance.

Event based view (Billing). Every action/revenue metric is attributed to the time it happened. This view allows a clear understanding of the periodical revenues conversions and other events, as they happened. This data pulled from this view matches your monthly billed invoice.

  • Source must be in lower case.

Date Range

Start date: 2019-01-06 End date: 2019-09-25

Metrics

  • Advertiser Spend

  • Advertiser ARPU

  • Offer Impressions

  • Offer Clicks

Splits (dimensions)

  • Country

Filters

  • Dimension filtered is the country

  • Values filtered are US, CA and RU

For a full list of supported Metrics and Dimensions per report, see Supported Metrics and Dimensions.

Step 3: Receiving the Custom Report

To obtain the Custom Report, follow the steps below:

  1. Receive the URL from the successful response in Step 2.

  2. Perform polling on the URL to access the file containing the custom report. The empty file is populated within one hour, depending on the size of the query.

  3. If the file is not populated with data after one hour, resend the request.

The URL is valid for three hours.
