|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Numbers | Total Calls | All requests to supply tag - every time that SpringServe is pinged | |||
| Numbers | Billable Reqs | Unmonetized requests not blocked by supply tag targeting | Total Calls - Blocked (Targeting) - Impressions | ||
| Numbers | Requests | Requests which pass supply targeting and were not blocked by Pre-Bid IVT filtering | Total Calls - Blocked (Targeting) - Blocked (Pre-Bid IVT) | Lite | |
| Numbers | Blocked (Total) | All unusable requests blocked by supply targeting and Pre-Bid IVT filtering | Blocked (Targeting) + Blocked (Pre-Bid IVT) | Lots of blocked requests mean that your supply partner is sending inventory that does not pass supply tag targeting. Confirm that they have targeting applied on their side. | |
| Numbers | Blocked (Targeting) | Unusable requests blocked by supply tag, partner, and account level targeting | |||
| Numbers | Opps | VPAID: Number of times the supply tag VPAID unit is initialized VAST only: Number of times the supply tag returns a non-empty vast response | Lite | Low Opportunity numbers are indicative of being low on the waterfall of your Supply Partner. | |
| Numbers | Missed Opps | Number of times the request passes supply tag targeting but does not pass targeting on any of demand tags on the waterfall | Full | If a tag has a lot of Missed Opportunities, align more demand that meets supply tag targeting or add supply tag targeting to align better with existing demand. In the second case, make sure to share your targeting with your supply partner | |
| Numbers | Imps | Number of times an ad is served | Lite | ||
| Numbers | Player Loads | Number of times that a player loads | Player load events are recorded based on the firing of the player tracking pixel. | ||
| Numbers | Pod Avail Time | Sum of seconds available in an ad pod. Determined by the UI settings or the POD_MAX_DUR macro | |||
| Numbers | Pod Opp Time | Sum of opportunities in seconds | |||
| Numbers | pod time fill | Sum of impressions in seconds | |||
| Numbers | Pod Opt Outs | ||||
| Calculations | Usable % | Percentage of requests that pass supply targeting criteria and are not blocked by Pre-Bid IVT filtering | Requests / Total Calls | ||
| Calculations | Blocked % (Total) | Percentage of requests blocked by IVT and supply targeting | Blocked (Total) / Total Calls | If a tag has a high blocked %, it is returning an empty VAST response to your supply partner and they may view your tag as a poor performer. Share your supply tag targeting with your supply partners to reduce this % | |
| Calculations | Blocked % (Targeting) | Percentage of requests blocked by supply targeting | Blocked (Targeting) / Total Calls | ||
| Calculations | Opp % | Percentage of requests that result in an opportunity | Opportunities / Requests | Full | If a tag has a low opportunity %, it is likely low on the waterfall of your supply partner. Ask what you can do to get higher on the waterfall; this may entail going on a white list or having request caps implemented on your tag to prove that your tag can fill if given more opportunities. |
| Calculations | Opp Fill % | Percentage of opportunities that result in an impression | Impressions / Opportunities | Lite | This metric is useful to show your supply partners when arguing for a higher spot on the waterfall. |
| Calculations | Request Fill % | Percentage of requests that result in an impression | Impressions / Requests | Lite | |
| Calculations | Player Fill % | Percentage of requests which result in a player load | Player Loads / Requests | ||
| Calculations | Pod Opp Time % | sum(AP_SLOTS_OPPORTUNITY_SECONDS)/sum(AP_SLOTS_SECONDS_AVAILABLE) | |||
| Calculations | pod time fill % | sum(AP_SLOTS_SECONDS_FILLED)/sum(AP_SLOTS_SECONDS_AVAILABLE) | |||
| Calculations | Pod Opp Fill Time % | sum(AP_SLOTS_SECONDS_FILLED)/sum(AP_SLOTS_OPPORTUNITY_SECONDS) | |||
| IVT Metrics | Blocked (Pre-Bid Protected) | Unusable requests blocked by Protected. This data is delayed by 2 hours, which can lead to initial zeros in this column. Total calls, Billable requests, and Blocked (Total) will be updated as the Protected data becomes available. | |||
| IVT Metrics | Blocked (Pre-Bid WhiteOps) | Unusable requests blocked by WhiteOps. This data is delayed by 72 hours and this can lead to initial zeros in this column. Total calls, Billable requests, and Blocked (Total) will be updated as the WhiteOps data becomes available. | |||
| IVT Metrics | Blocked (Pre-Bid SpringServe) | Unusable requests blocked because they were deemed to be IVT using SpringServe's proprietary algorithm | |||
| IVT Metrics | Blocked % (Pre-Bid Protected) | Percentage of requests blocked by Protected pre-bid IVT filtering | Blocked (Pre-bid Protected) / Total Calls | ||
| IVT Metrics | Blocked % (Pre-Bid WhiteOps) | Percentage of requests blocked by WhiteOps pre-bid IVT filtering | Blocked (Pre-bid WhiteOps) / Total Calls | ||
| IVT Metrics | Blocked % (Pre-Bid SpringServe) | Percentage of requests blocked by SpringServe Pre-Bid IVT filtering | Blocked (Pre-bid SpringServe) / Total Calls | ||

| IVT Metrics | Forensiq IVT Imps | Number of Forensiq impressions that were deemed to be IVT | If a Forensiq risk score of over 65 assigned, it is counted as IVT; A risk score of 65 means that the impression has potential IVT but doesn't necessarily mean it is fraud. | ||
| IVT Metrics | Forensiq IVT % | Percentage of Forensiq impressions that were deemed to be IVT | Forensiq IVT Imps / Forensiq Imps | A high percentage of IVT imps means you could look into the source. | |

| Response Metrics | Errors | Number of times that there is no demand tag fill in the waterfall | If Errors are high, reexamine your demand, because the request is going all the way down the waterfall without being filled. | ||
| Response Metrics | Error % | Percentage of usable requests that result in an Error | Errors / Requests | ||
| Response Metrics | Timeouts | Number of times the player closes after VPAID has initialized and no ad is returned | If this number is high and the VPAID Window is high, your tag is given a long time to fill but never does; reexamine your demand. If this number is high and the VPAID Window is low, talk to your Supply Partner about why you are being timed out so quickly. | ||
