Example

Create a JSON-formatted report request

The JSON file should include the report_type of "seller_deal_metrics_report", as well as the columns (dimensions and metrics) and report_interval that you want to retrieve. You can also filter for 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 seller_deal_metrics_report
 
{
    "report": {
        "report_type": "seller_deal_metrics_report",
        "columns": [

            "end_date",
            "bids",
            "average_net_bid",
            "imps_won",

        ],
        "report_interval": "last_7_days",

`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 'https://api.appnexus.com/report?id=2630ab93193a0b14257f154b7912ac5f'

`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.

Tip

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 'https://api.appnexus.com/report-download?id=2630ab93193a0b14257f154b7912ac5f' > /tmp/seller_deal_metrics_report.csv
