New Report Set Up

Instructions for generating a Targeting Report/Model. Follow the steps below:

  1. Navigate to the Targeting Tab.
  2. Click New Report button.
  3. Give the report/model a name.
  4. Select the Advertiser to run the analysis on.
  5. Select the Campaign(s) within the chosen Advertiser.
    • If no campaigns are selected, all campaigns will be included.
  6. Select the Line(s) within the chosen Campaign(s).
    • If no lines are selected, all lines will be included.
  7. Select the Optimization Type:
    • Conversions
      • If selected, choose the conversion pixel to be used for optimization.
    • Clicks
  8. Select the analysis Start Date.
  9. Select the analysis End Date.
  10. Enter the desired lookback window (in days).
    • Default is 30 days.
    • This defines how far back the model will attribute conversions or clicks to ad exposure.
  11. Select what Bid Request Fields are used.
    • Only the checked fields are considered when the model is built. Unchecking one removes it from the regression entirely, so it can never influence a bid.
    • All are checked by default, but users can make it customizable.
    • Fields list:
      • Geography:
        • Region / State
        • ZIP Code
      • Inventory:
        • Publisher
        • App Bundle
        • Deal ID
        • Site Domain
        • Exchange
      • Content
        • Channel
        • Series
        • Title
        • Genre
        • Network

        • Device Type
      • Time
        • Day of Week
        • Hour
      • Operating System
      • Browser
  12. Select what the Inventory Scope is.
    • This looks at which impressions the model learns from. This is different from the fields above: unchecking a field removes it from the model, while unchecking inventory here removes those impressions from the analysis entirely — they influence no score, and the campaign average every score is compared against is calculated without them. No filter = the model trains on all inventory.

  13. Choose whether the report should run once or repeat on a schedule.
    • Run once builds a single report.
    • Schedule re-runs it on the chosen cadence — each run retrains the model, replaces the live model in S3 when Replace the live model each run is enabled, and is saved as a new run grouped under this report.
      • Rerun Interval:
        • Weekly
        • Every 2 Weeks
        • Monthly
      • Rerun Day of Week:
        • Monday
        • Tuesday
        • Wednesday
        • Thursday
        • Friday
        • Saturday
        • Sunday
      • Replace the live model each run checkbox
        • On: each run’s new model overwrites the live model so it goes live automatically.
        • Off: runs still produce reports and archived models, but the live model is left untouched.
  14. Click the Save Report button.

Additional Notes

  • Ensure selected campaigns and lines have sufficient data for reliable analysis.
    • Recommended: ~2,000 conversions for stable model performance.
  • The lookback window should align with typical user conversion behavior.
  • Once the report and model are generated, view the results. Users can also edit the report and models setup and rerun the report.
