Statistics shows how your network is performing: clicks, events, conversions, revenue, profit and more. This article covers the basics: filters, chart, table, metrics, export and timezone. Advanced options have their own articles (see the end of this article).
Go to Home → Statistics. The page has three parts:
Filters — choose the data you want to see.
Chart — follow the main metrics over time.
Table — the results, grouped by the dimensions you choose.
Filters
Click Filter in the toolbar to show or hide the filters. The number in brackets is how many filters have a value.
To narrow down the data, choose a value in a filter (for example, an Affiliate). Dates is always there; by default it shows the Last 7 days.
Click Manage filters to choose the filters you work with:
Select the checkbox of each filter you want to use: these are your favorite filters.
Click the pin of a filter to keep it always visible.
Click Apply changes.
Below the filters, a link switches between two views:
Show all favorites — shows all your favorite filters, pinned or not.
Show active or pinned only — shows only the pinned filters and the filters with a value.
Clear all removes the values of all the filters.
Chart
The chart shows how the main metrics change over time.
Click a metric above the chart (for example, Clicks or Total revenue) to show or hide its line.
Use Per day to change the time interval.
Use the zoom icons to zoom in, zoom out or reset the zoom.
Click Hide charts in the toolbar to hide the chart, and Show charts to show it again.
Table: dimensions
The table shows the results for the filters you set. Each row is a value of the dimensions you group by (by default, Day) and each column is a metric. The Totals row at the bottom adds up each column; hover over the ⓘ icon next to a metric to see what it means.
Add dimensions: click + next to the gear icon in the table header, add one or more dimensions and click Apply. For example, add Requested advertiser to see each day's results per advertiser.
The dimensions are grouped (Time, Affiliate, Offer — requested, Offer — attributed, Geo & connection, Device…) and you can find them with Search.
Hover over a dimension to see what it means, its format and an example.
In Selected, drag the dimensions to change their order, or remove one with ⊖.
Break down a row: hover over a row and click the + that appears after its dimensions. Choose a dimension (for example, Affiliate) and click Apply. The row opens a second level, with its own table and search box. Inside it, you can add a third level in the same way.
The gear icon opens the table settings, such as Truncate cell text (all cells get the same width and long texts end with "…").
Table: metrics
Metrics are the columns of the table. To choose them, click Metrics in the toolbar:
Find each metric in its group (Traffic, Cost…) or with Search, and click + to add it. Add as many as you need.
In Selected, drag the metrics to set their order, or remove one with ⊖.
Click Apply.
You can also add metrics from the table: hover just above a column header and click the add column icon. The new metrics are added right after that column. The other two icons move and remove the column.
Export, refresh and reset
Export CSV — downloads a CSV file with the first level of the table (second and third levels aren't included).
Refresh — reloads the data of the table and the chart.
Reset — clears the values of the filters (Dates goes back to Last 7 days), removes the dimensions you added and goes back to Event timestamp. Your metrics and your favorite filters don't change.
Timezone
Statistics are shown in your network's timezone: the clock in the top right corner says Affiliation network timezone. To see the data in another timezone:
Click the clock.
Click Change timezone.
Search for the timezone and select it. AFFILIATION NETWORK TZ marks your network's timezone and LOCAL TZ your computer's.
The clock turns orange and says Session timezone: the data is shown in that timezone for the rest of your session. To go back to your network's timezone, click the clock and select Restore timezone. To change the timezone you see by default, click Go to user settings.
Advanced options
These options are explained in separate articles:
Saved reports, Share and Publish — save a report, share it and get its data from an endpoint or in Google Sheets. See Statistics – Saved Reports – Export data endpoint and How to Create a Saved Report and Import Data into Google Sheets.
Perspective and Grouped stats — how each metric is split into the Advertiser, Network, Affiliate and Notified columns.
Event timestamp and Visit timestamp — whether events are counted on the date they happened or on the date of the visit.
