📊 Updates Made to Report Field Names, and Metric Calculations Metric Calculation Changes We changed impression calculation for preferred deals and open auction campaigns. These changes in the API are now reflecting the same reporting logic for impressions used by reports within the Retail Media Platform. For the following reports, the API will report impressions as follows:

Summary Report Metrics changed by impression calculation change:

Campaign Line Item
CampaignCtr and CampaignFrequency lineItemCtr and lineItemFrequency

pageType Report Metrics changed by impression calculation change:

Campaign Line Item
CampaignCtr lineItemCtr

Keyword Report Metrics changed by impression calculation change:

Campaign Line Item
CampaignCtr and CampaignFrequency lineItemCtr and lineItemFrequency

Report Field Names In this version, we also updated some report field names. For example, in previous versions where the reports fields such as productCPC or productRoas, in the latest version, we renamed to simply CPC or ROAS.

NOTE Besides metrics that utilize impressions for calculations, no other report metric had its calculation logic modified.
