ID of the Metric

measurement
string
Possible values: "95th""median""avg""count""sum"

Measurement for the provided metric. If omitted, the default for the metric will be used.
The default measurement for each metric is:
"sum" : ad_attempt_count, ad_break_count, ad_break_error_count, ad_error_count, ad_impression_count, playing_time
"median" : ad_preroll_startup_time, aggregate_startup_time, content_startup_time, max_downscale_percentage, max_upscale_percentage, page_load_time, player_average_live_latency, player_startup_time, rebuffer_count, rebuffer_duration, requests_for_first_preroll, video_startup_preroll_load_time, video_startup_preroll_request_time, video_startup_time, view_average_request_latency, view_average_request_throughput, view_max_request_latency, weighted_average_bitrate
"avg" : ad_break_error_percentage, ad_error_percentage, ad_exit_before_start_count, ad_exit_before_start_percentage, ad_playback_failure_percentage, ad_startup_error_count, ad_startup_error_percentage, content_playback_failure_percentage, downscale_percentage, exits_before_video_start, playback_business_exception_percentage, playback_failure_percentage, playback_success_score, rebuffer_frequency, rebuffer_percentage, seek_latency, smoothness_score, startup_time_score, upscale_percentage, video_quality_score, video_startup_business_exception_percentage, video_startup_failure_percentage, view_dropped_percentage, viewer_experience_score
"count" : started_views, unique_viewers

order_direction
string
Possible values: "asc""desc"

Sort order.

timeframe[]
array

Timeframe window to limit results by. Must be provided as an array query string parameter (e.g. timeframe[]=).

Accepted formats are...

  • array of epoch timestamps e.g. timeframe[]=1498867200&timeframe[]=1498953600
  • duration string e.g. timeframe[]=24:hours or timeframe[]=7:days
filters[]
array

Filter results using key:value pairs. Must be provided as an array query string parameter.

Basic filtering:

  • filters[]=dimension:value - Include rows where dimension equals value
  • filters[]=!dimension:value - Exclude rows where dimension equals value

For trace dimensions (like video_cdn_trace):

  • filters[]=+dimension:value - Include rows where trace contains value
  • filters[]=-dimension:value - Exclude rows where trace contains value
  • filters[]=dimension:[value1,value2] - Exact trace match

Examples:

  • filters[]=country:US - US views only
  • filters[]=+video_cdn_trace:fastly - Views using Fastly CDN
metric_filters[]
array

Limit the results to rows that match inequality conditions from provided metric comparison clauses. Must be provided as an array query string parameter.

Possible filterable metrics are the same as the set of metric ids, with the exceptions of exits_before_video_start, unique_viewers, video_startup_failure_percentage, view_dropped_percentage, and views.

Example:

  • metric_filters[]=aggregate_startup_time>=1000
