Reporting: Dimensions, Filters, and Metrics explained 🕚

How to build custom reports and understand every metric on the Reporting page.

The Reporting page helps you understand how your Sponsored Listings campaigns are performing. By combining dimensions, filters, and metrics, you can analyze performance, identify trends, and explore areas for further review.

Access the Reporting page

  1. Click Reporting from the left-hand navigation.

  2. Select your time range and currency.

  3. Choose your dimensions and filters.

  4. Click Apply to load the report.

Build your report

Every report consists of three components:

  • Dimensions group your data by a specific attribute so you can compare performance.

  • Filters narrow the data shown without changing how it's grouped.

  • Metrics are the performance values measured in your report, such as impressions, clicks, bookings, or ROAS.

New to Reporting?

If you’re not sure where to start, group your report by Hotel Name or Campaign Name, then review Spend, Bookings, Revenue, and ROAS. This gives you a quick view of performance across properties and campaigns.
