The Bidder Platform Buyer Report provides granular transaction information to buyers (down to the tag level). For instructions on retrieving this report, see the Examples below.

Tip

The bidder_platform_buyer and platform_seller types pull from tables that store the last 90 days worth of data. For data beyond the past 90 days, use the buyer_platform_billing and seller_platform_billing report types.

current_hour
last_hour
last_48_hours
today
yesterday
last_7_days
month_to_date
quarter_to_date

Examples

Create the JSON-formatted report request

The JSON file should include the report_type bidder_platform_buyer, as well as the columns (dimensions and metrics) and report_interval that you want to retrieve. You can also filter specific dimensions, define granularity (year, month, day), and specify the format in which the data should be returned (csv, excel, or html). For a full explanation of fields that can be included in the JSON file, see the Report Service.

$ cat report
{
    "report": {
        "report_type": "bidder_platform_buyer",
        "timezone": "PST",
        "report_interval": "last_7_days",
        "name": "Example Buyer Report",
        "columns": [
            "day",
            "publisher_id",
            "publisher_name",
            "publisher_code",
            "buyer_member_id",
            "buyer_member_name",
            "buyer_ecpm",
            "buyer_spend"
        ]
    }
}

Note

To order by day, insert this object into your JSON file after the "columns" array:

"orders": ["day"]

`POST` the request to the reporting service

$ curl -b cookies -c cookies -X POST -d @report 'https://api.adnxs.com/report'
{
  "response": {
    "status": "OK",
    "report_id": "bfe2ba2ea54a51115db942d591a7b5d9",
  }
}

`GET` the report status from the report service

Make a GET call with the Report ID to retrieve the status of the report. Continue making this GET call until the execution_status is "ready". Then use the report-download service to save the report data to a file, as described in the next step.

$ curl -b cookies -c cookies 'https://api.adnxs.com/report?id=bfe2ba2ea54a51115db942d591a7b5d9'
{
   "response":{
      "status":"OK",
      "report":{
         "name":null,
         "created_on":"2010-05-25 19:19:53",
         "url": "report-download?id=bfe2ba2ea54a51115db942d591a7b5d9"
      },
      "execution_status":"ready"
   }
}

`GET` the report data from the report download service

To download the report data to a file, make another GET call with the Report ID, but this time to the report-download service. You can find the service and Report ID in the url field of the previous GET response. When identifying the file that you want to save to, be sure to use the file extension of the "format" that you specified in your initial POST.

Note

If an error occurs during download, the response header will include an HTTP error code and message. Use {{-i}} or {{-v}} in your call to expose the response header.

curl -b cookies -c cookies 'https://api.adnxs.com/report-download?id=bfe2ba2ea54a51115db942d591a7b5d9' > report.csv

Note

Use the ID that was given in the response from when you initially posted the report.
