The User Level Reporting API enables you to access reporting data to measure all revenue generated from individual users. This information can be used to optimize retargeting campaigns and accurately measure user lifetime value.
You can query revenue and impressions metrics across the available dimensions. For all supported metrics and dimensions for the User Level Reporting API, click the Metrics and Dimensions tab above.
The User Level Reporting API is disabled by default for any new app onboarding. To enable it, contact your Account Manager. Once enabled, data is aggregated from six days prior to the activation date.
Reporting API Workflow
The publisher makes a POST request using the Client ID and Client Secret to receive the Access Token, as described in Step 1.
Once the request is successful and the Access Token is received, an API Request is made to create a custom report as described in Step 2. A successful response will contain a URL leading to a file containing the custom report. More details can be found in Step 3.
Step 1: Obtaining the Access Token
Digital Turbine's Reporting API uses Access Tokens for authentication purposes. To obtain your Access Token, you must first get your Client ID and Client Secret.
- Sign in to the Console, here.
- On the top left side of the screen click your User ID
- If necessary, you can click Revoke to delete the current credentials.
You are returned to the API Keys window.
- Click Generate New Keys again, to receive new credentials.
Keep your Client ID and Client Secret safe, as they can be reused in the future.
Using your Client ID and Client Secret make a POST request to receive your Access Token.
The base End Point for the entire process is: https://reporting.fyber.com
Authentication token
POST /auth/v1/token
Headers
Content-Type application/json
Sample Request
https://reporting.fyber.com/auth/v1/token
Params
format csv
Body: raw (application/json)
{
"grant_type": "client_credentials",
"client_id": "3ce66d885XXXXXXXXXXa3b752bb9058",
"client_secret": "YtMvC7VYTQMQ7w9UCUaFXXXJnwVZnQqqN02XNyt8IIh2h8XFDuXXXXXXXXSS6XTrFWW4TkebCcMLJkrXSw5IurkearTJIDzUxsbiMXv8hb4T23MwN6eE7DDIthRFqDnhnuhiDlY2oPeaOjsMbzE8joZ5cs6tsySJz6uZXwJ-x3lcYaYbgXXXXXXXX3_hFeuXm-C7-me2V1MMs-ftJxTd5QbHoUhG3Q5anCWCW_pg8x3CL4yPGCbpWUDZfpdNPyyCT4rxCEb-VC0Bdqwe8N2GGn_VSFOwQYxa-yap2JuNSGJfl_ZURXXXXXXXXFe1GpHDn8pk7yYwQYIGAg"
}
- Grant Type must be "client_credentials"
- The credentials are sent according to the OAuth 2.0 protocol
Sample Authentication Response
When an authentication request is successful, you receive the following response in JSON format:
Successful Response
{
"accessToken": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXXXJ9.eyJpYXQiOjE1NzAwMTY5MDAsImV4cCI6MTU3MDAyMDUwMCwiYXVkIjoic3BlZWRiYWxsIiwic3ViIjoiMjEwMjYzIn0.hDo1waTytSys_oRhFNUPqZPom26bL05rxgtSt3XYHqI",
"tokenType": "bearer",
"expiresIn": 3600
}
accessToken: The token required to continue the process
tokenType: Bearer
expiresIn: 3600 seconds (1 hour)
When a request is unsuccessful, you receive the following response:
Unsuccessful Response
{
"error": "internal_server_error"
}
Possible Authentication Errors
Set out in the table are a list of possible errors which resulted in an unsuccessful response.
HTTP Status Code | Error | Scenario |
---|---|---|
400 | unsupported_grant_type | N/A |
400 | invalid_request | When there are missing credentials |
400 | invalid_client | When the credentials are incorrect or cannot be recognized. Can also occur when your account has been disabled or when the credentials have been revoked. |
500 | internal_server_error | Unexpected errors in DT's servers |
Step 2: Reporting API Request
Use the access token you received in Step 1 to request your custom report.
The two dimensions that you can query in your request are:
- Date
- App ID
All other dimensions always appear in the report.
Request Example
The below is an example from the User Level report.
Date
Date: 2020-16-02
AppID: 123
For a full list of supported Metrics and Dimensions per report, click here.
For further descriptions about the terms used in this article, click here.
Make a POST request to receive your report.
URL
https://reporting.fyber.com/api/v1/report/user-level-data
Headers
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer <Access Token from Authentication Response>
Body. raw (application/json)
{
“date”: "2020-01-01",
“appId”: “123"
}
Responses
Set out below are examples of both successful and unsuccessful responses.
Response: Successful
{
"id": "6fad42cb-25db-4af0-8988-1e7d8e6d90bc",
"url": "https://fyber-async-reports.s3.amazonaws.com/group%3D210263/6fad42cb-25db-4af0-8988-1e7d8e6d90bc.csv?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAQBQNZ5FY23OTK4UD&Expires=1570020564&Signature=LbhE5uljlPEKQRTbepDqmDgJuFQ%3D",
}
- The "id" field holds an identifier of the request for later troubleshooting, if required.
- The "url" field holds the URL to be polled (GET request) until the body response (file) is populated.
Response: Unsuccessful
{
"error": "invalid_token"
}
Possible Errors
The table below shows the main errors indicating an unsuccessful response.
HTTP Status Code | Error | Description (optional) | Scenario |
---|---|---|---|
401 | invalid_token | N/A | Authorization header is empty Authorization header not sent or token is not present in the header Unrecognized token Disabled account |
400 | invalid_query | For example: Invalid value undefined supplied to : Query/dateRange: DateRange -or- Invalid value "XXXXX" supplied to : Query/dateRange: DateRange/end: Date |
If the query sent is not in the expected schema Date range is not sent in the ISO 8601 format |
500 | internal_server_error | N/A | Error in DT's servers |
