Advertiser Reporting API
Use Cases
The API described on this page is for fetching reports.
All dates and data are calculated in the EST timezone.
All monetary values are in dollars as decimals.
Please allow for long timeouts for each request as responses are not instant.
Reports are updated approximately every half hour, so requesting the same report within that timeframe will return the same result set.

(*) Offer events: because the offer event is only known upon conversion and does not apply to clicks, the click counts are duplicated for each offer event. For example, if an offer gets 10 clicks, each offer event in the report will display 10 clicks. Furthermore, if there are only clicks and no conversions, expect the offer_event to be null
. We may remove results without conversions in the future.
