Active View eligible impressions
Total number of impressions that were eligible to measure viewability. An impression is eligible if (a) the ad's creative has an Active View enabled tag, and (b) the impression is counted with a downloaded pingback.
Reports  Historical
Label  Total, Ad server, AdSense, Ad Exchange

Accredited by the Media Rating Council Ad server Active View eligible impressions: Accredited by the MRC for Display, Video, and Rich Media creatives within Desktop, Mobile Web, and Mobile application environments. Metric totals are net of compliant General Invalid Traffic (GIVT) filtration, as well as some Sophisticated Invalid Traffic (SIVT) filtering techniques.
Active View measurable impressions
Impressions that were measurable by Active View out of the total number of eligible impressions. This value should generally be close to 100%; however, even when an ad tag has Active View enabled, some factors may prevent the tag from capturing data. For example, an impression that is rendering in a cross-domain iframe may not be measurable.

Active View viewable impressions
Number of impressions on the site that were viewable out of all measurable impressions. A display ad is counted as viewable if at least 50% of its area was displayed on screen for at least one second (the minimum criteria according to IAB measurement standards). For in-stream video ads, 50% of its area must be displayed for at least two seconds.

Active View % measurable impressions
Percentage of impressions that were measurable with Active View, out of the total number of Active View eligible impressions.

Formula: (measurable impressions ∕ eligible impressions) × 100

An ad is measurable when the Active View enabled tag successfully captured viewability information about the impression. Viewable impression measurement tools experience a small amount of data loss in addition to measurement gaps from some cross-domain iframe scenarios.

Ad Manager's measurability metric focuses on actual measurement gaps, which you can resolve by removing iframes (learn more about troubleshooting viewability). The data loss is randomly distributed across viewable and measurable impressions, and therefore % Measurable is a reliable indicator of measurability for the publisher's inventory.

Active View % viewable impressions
Percentage of viewable impressions out of all measurable impressions.

Formula: (viewable impressions ∕ measurable impressions) × 100

For example, say the ads on your site had 100 measurable impressions. That means there were 100 impressions where Active View enabled tags were able to measure viewability. If only 10 of those 100 impressions were measured as viewable, then the site would have 10% viewable impressions.

Active View average viewable time (seconds)
The total viewable time on screen divided by the number of impressions where time on screen could be measured.

For example, if there were 150 impressions but time on screen could be measured for only 100 of them, and those 100 impressions were viewed for a total of 600 seconds, then the Active View average viewable time would be 6 seconds.

This metric works across display, mobile web, and video inventory.

Ad Exchange ad requests (Beta)
The number of ad units that requested ads (for content ads) or search queries (for search ads). In other words, the number of times Ad Exchange receives a request to show an ad. An ad request is reported each time a request was sent, even if no ads were returned and backup ads were displayed instead. 

With regard to video, ad impressions are often less than ad requests because video ads are technically more challenging to serve as fast as image ads. As a result, some video ads won't render properly. Use video-specific metrics to better assess video inventory performance. 

All requests sent to Ad Exchange in Mediation for mobile apps are considered in Ad Exchange metrics, instead of only requests filled by Ad Exchange. An increase in ad request totals might result in lower coverage rates.

Reports  Historical
Label  Ad Exchange
Ad Exchange match rate  (Beta)   
Measures the percentage of ads returned compared to the number of ads requested.

Formula: (Ad Exchange responses served ∕ Ad Exchange ad requests)

When Ad Exchange match rate is always 100%
“Ad Exchange match rate” will show 100% for report metrics that imply an ad served, such as “Creative size (delivered)” or “Advertiser (classified),” along with any metrics under them (“child” metrics). Unified pricing rules will also show 100% Ad Exchange match rate.
 
Why? Let’s look at “Advertiser (classified)” as an example. It’s based on what’s delivered instead of what’s requested. By definition, if you include “Advertiser (classified),” you’re only showing impressions that had coverage. An unfilled impression can’t have an advertiser, and likewise an advertiser can’t be associated with an unfilled impression. Therefore, rows for “Advertiser (classified)” will always show “Ad Exchange match rate” of 100%, as will any child metrics of “Advertiser (classified).” Ad Exchange adds one row for all the “(Unmatched ad requests)”, and this row has “Ad Exchange match rate” of 0%.
 
What should I do? In these cases, “Ad Exchange ad requests” and “Ad Exchange average eCPM” should be disregarded, as they may be misleading. Publishers should look at the “Ad Exchange delivery rate” metric instead. All requests sent to Ad Exchange in Mediation for mobile apps are considered in Ad Exchange metrics, instead of only requests filled by Ad Exchange. An increase in ad request totals might result in lower Ad Exchange match rate.

Eligible impressions
Total number of impressions that meet all criteria to be served by an Ad Exchange line item (for more information, see Dynamic allocation).

An eligible ad request trying to serve an impression can make requests to different inventory sources, such as Ad Manager for reservation/remnant ads, and Ad Exchange for dynamic allocation.

An ad request to Ad Exchange may not get filled due to various reasons (such as no buyer bids, filtered bids due to a buyer's pre-targeting, bids under the price floor, or blocking). When dynamic allocation sends the request back to Ad Manager, it may be the case that no reservation/remnant ad is selected by the ad server (for example, if the SI is on or ahead of schedule, or there's a lack of remnant line items targeting a given inventory section); in this case, the ad request goes unfilled.

In this scenario, a single eligible request can generate two or even more unfilled competing impressions.

Invoiced impressions

In certain instances, this metric may have minor discrepancies with your invoice due to delayed impressions, spam filtering, etc. If your network has any free impressions, they are still counted in this metric.

Filled impressions are invoiced differently based on the inventory involved:

  • For mobile app and video inventory, filled impressions are counted when the ad is rendered according to video first-frame and mobile app impression counting methodologies. Unfilled impressions aren’t billed.
  • For other inventory, they’re billed as downloaded impressions. Unfilled impressions are billed, but included in the “Invoiced unfilled impressions” metric total.
  • Impressions filtered as invalid traffic aren’t included.

Total code served count
Number of times the Google Ad Manager ad server, AdSense, Ad Exchange, and third-party Mediation networks responded to a request for an ad. A code serve is not counted if the ad server response is empty.

If this metric is broken down or filtered by Line item, Advertiser, Order, Line item type, and any unsupported dimension, the results could be incomplete. Using these combinations can cause all reservation impressions to be reported as "0", "unknown", or "-".

The supported dimensions that can be combined with the ones listed above are: Ad unit, Placement, Creative, Creative size, Creative type, App names, Devices, Inventory types, and Device category.

  • For video requests and out-of-page requests:
    Formula: Total code served count >= Impressions
  • For traditional display requests:
    Formula: Total code served count ~ Impressions
  • For Mediation chains, we advise against using Total code served count to report on any inventory. This metric contains data for the total code served count of the mediation chain, as well as responses from mediation networks. This combined data may produce results that are unclear.
For delayed-impression requests, the code served count value is generally more than the impressions value because code served count reflects Ad Manager responses regardless of whether a creative was actually rendered. For traditional display requests, pre-rendering creatives can also cause a discrepancy between code served count and impressions.

Average view rate
Percentage of a video that is watched by a user. For example, if a user watches 20 seconds of a 30-second video, the video view rate percentage is calculated as 66.66.

This is not a viewability metric, as defined by the MRC Viewability Guidelines.

Average view time
Average time, in seconds, that a video is viewed per view.

Formula: Total video view time ∕ Video starts

For example, a 20-second video is viewed by one user for 20 seconds. A second user views the same video for only 10 seconds. The video view time is calculated as 15.00 seconds.

If a user drags the scrubber (video timeline) backward or stops the video altogether, the video view time is stopped.

Auto-plays
Number of times video ads play automatically. To implement auto-play metrics in your player, set the autoPlayAdBreaks parameter using the SDK.

The unknown video initiation value can be derived by subtracting the number of impressions counted in the "Auto-plays" and "Click-to-plays" metrics from the "Ad Server impressions" metric for a specific video placement.

Note that Auto-plays is incompatible with Ad Exchange impressions. Although Auto-plays can be selected alongside Ad Exchange impressions in reporting, the result will always be empty.

Collapse
Number of times a user collapses a video, either to its original size or to a different size. For overlays, this tracks the number of times the user minimizes the ad without fully removing it from the player.
Reports  Historical

Expand
Average time, in seconds, that an expanding ad is viewed in an expanded state.

Any expansion times that exceed several minutes are capped. Extended expansion time can occur when a user opens an expanding ad without collapsing the ad or closing the browser. This cap rule prevents skewed results for average display time in reporting. While this event is counted only once per impression, the time that the ad remains in an expanded state is recorded as the total expansion time.

For example, if a user expands an expanding ad for 10 seconds, and then the same user expands the ad a second time for 10 seconds, the number of expansions is recorded as one, and the total expansion time is recorded as 20 seconds.

Yield group estimated CPM
The estimated net rate for yield groups or individual yield group partners.
  • For Open Bidding buyers and for Ad Exchange, this value is based upon the actual, real-time CPM bid.
  • For Mediation yield group partners, this value is based upon the CPM bid estimate used by Ad Manager when positioning buyers within the Mediation chain.

    If automatic data collection is enabled, this value reflects a combination of the "Default CPM" values and the average CPM collected by Ad Manager, adjusted for impression discrepancies with Ad Manager recorded impressions. Otherwise, the "Default CPM" value, defined by the publisher when trafficking a yield group, is used.

This data is available for 45 days after the event.

This report metric can be affected by exchange quotas, which regulate how many requests they want to receive from Ad Manager, or the exchange's pretargeting configuration.

Because video pods can lead to multiple bid requests sent to third-party buyers, publishers shouldn't expect these values to match the available impressions values for third-party buyers.
