Ads Dashboard
The Ads dashboard gives you an overview of your players’ ad behaviour in your game. The dashboard has a breakdown of the most common performance numbers regarding ads. At the moment the dashboard displays metrics from two possible data sources:
- Ad event
- Impression event (Impression level revenue data integration from various ad network providers)
Read more about how to integrate these here (ad event, impression event).
The widgets in this dashboard are organized into Ad Activity (with data from ad events) and Ad Revenue (with data from impression events).
Ad Activity widgets help you to look at key information about ads in your game such as impressions, clicks, top ad placements. The data in these widgets is displayed from the ad events that you can implement in SDK to track your players’s interactions with ads (learn more about ad events here)
Widgets with ad revenue data display impression level ad revenue data, as reported by the ad network provider that you have integrated in your game. You can look at information like ad impressions and ad revenue (total, per user and per impression). These widgets report the combined ad revenue data, which means if you have multiple ad network providers in your game, you are looking at total revenue from ads in your games. Currently we support MoPub, Fyber, Ironsource and MAX, with plans to support more providers in future (learn more about impression events here)
If these widgets in the dashboard do not cover your specific needs, then head over to our Explore tool to dig even deeper into the data.
We’ll be covering all of these selected widgets below.
