Download reports from Google Cloud Storage
Reports are available from Google Cloud Storage. Reports are generated daily and accumulated in monthly CSV files. They are stored in a private Google Cloud Storage bucket for your Google Play Developer account.
You can access reports using Google Cloud Storage on your browser or programmatically using gsutil. You can also use other tools to programmatically access your Cloud Storage bucket.
Tip: If you want to import your reports from Google Cloud Storage into BigQuery, you need to convert the CSV files from UTF-16 to UTF-8.
Find your Google Cloud Storage URI
You can copy your Google Cloud Storage URI by clicking the Copy Cloud Storage URI button next to the corresponding section header on the Download reports pages.
Your Cloud Storage URI begins with pubsite_prod_rev (example: pubsite_prod_rev_01234567890987654321).
- Install the gsutil tool.
- Make sure that you authenticate your account using an account with access to your Play Console.
- During the setup process, if you're using gsutil for the first time and don't have any other projects configured in Google Cloud Storage, you can type your app's name when you're prompted for a project ID.
- Find your reporting bucket ID by clicking the Copy Cloud Storage URI button next to the corresponding section header on the Download reports pages.
- Your Cloud Storage URI begins with:
pubsite_prod_rev(Example:pubsite_prod_rev_01234567890987654321).
- Your Cloud Storage URI begins with:
- Use the
gsutil cpcommand to download reports.- For additional commands to help you access your reports, go to the gsutil documentation.
Reports are organised in directories named after each type of report. CSV file names include the type of report, package name, time period and the dimension (if applicable).
Step 1: Create a service account
- Sign in to the Google Developers Console (console.developers.google.com).
- If you already have a project, use the drop-down to select a project. If you don't have a project listed or want to create a new one, click Create project.
- Select the Menu icon
> Permissions > Service accounts > Create service account.
- Follow the on-screen instructions and select Create.
- Copy the email address listed.
- Example:
accountName@project.iam.gserviceaccount.com
- Example:
> Permissions > Service accounts > Create service account.Step 2: Add the service account on your Play Console
- Sign in to your Play Console.
- Select Settings
> User accounts & rights > Invite new user.
- Paste or type the email address associated with your service account.
- Based on the types of reports needed, select permissions.
- Tip: Read the Add developer account users and manage permissions article to understand the different access levels that users have and the rights that different permissions grant them.
- Click Add user. Your service account will be added to your account.
> User accounts & rights > Invite new user.Step 3: Fetch reports using an API call
- Install the API client library for your preferred code language.
- Configure the code performing the API call to use
OAuth2server-to-server authentication and to request permission to theOAuth2scope (https://www.googleapis.com/auth/devstorage.read_only). - Issue authenticated API calls to fetch reports.
If you used Python to fetch reports, here's a code example:
import json
from httplib2 import Http
from oauth2client.client import SignedJwtAssertionCredentials
from apiclient.discovery import build
# Change these variables to fit your case
client_email = 'your service account here'
json_file = 'path_to_json_file_obtained_when_creating_the_service_account'
cloud_storage_bucket = 'pubsite_prod_rev_…'
report_to_download = ‘earnings/earnings_….zip’
private_key = json.loads(open(json_file).read())['private_key']
credentials = SignedJwtAssertionCredentials(client_email, private_key,
'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/devstorage.read_only')
storage = build('storage', 'v1', http=credentials.authorize(Http()))
print storage.objects().get(
bucket=cloud_storage_bucket,
object=report_to_download).execute()
Control access to Google Cloud Storage
Reports available on Google Cloud Storage use the same access restrictions that control data access on your Play Console. This means that account users with access to areas of a Play Console account have access to the corresponding reports in Google Cloud Storage.
Account owners can update permissions for individual users at any time.
- To access bulk reports, your 'View app information' permission must be set to 'Global'.
- To download financial reports, your 'View financial data' permission must be set to 'Global'.

Estimated salesAbout
You can use the estimated sales report to view low latency information about app, in-app product or subscription sales. This report contains the amount paid by buyers and doesn't deduct taxes or Google fees from the totals.
You can use this report for analytics or trend analysis, but it's not recommended for accounting. Instead, see the Earnings report.
You may notice differences between this report and your earnings for a number of reasons. For example, the estimated sales report doesn't take into account withholding taxes or chargebacks. This report contains amounts paid by buyers in their local currency and doesn't contain converted amounts in your payout currency.

About
You can use the earnings report to understand your payout and transactions. Each line in the report represents a type of transaction, like when you charge a customer money or pay Google a fee, along with the original and converted amounts.
Earnings reports contain invoices raised in the prior month. You'll receive an invoice if you've met the minimum payment amount. You'll receive the payout several weeks after the earnings report becomes available.
Occasionally, Google may make adjustments to your earnings to correct miscalculations. If this happens, we'll contact you to inform you of the issue and create an additional earnings file containing only the adjusted transactions for your records.
Note: Since Google is the merchant of record for products sold to users in the European Economic Area (EEA), you'll see one line per order for sales in the impacted countries (with 'Charge' as the transaction type). Sales in other countries will also include a 'Google fee' transaction type.

About
If you are a merchant that is required to issue cash receipts in South Korea under applicable rules and regulations, or if you have voluntarily registered to issue cash receipts, then you must issue cash receipts upon request by app purchasers for paid app or in-app product purchases made with Google Play Gift Cards in Korean Won (KRW).
The Korean Play balance funded report contains Play balance sales made in Korean Won, for the purpose of sending a cash receipt to the user.
Note: Users can add to Play balance from multiple sources, including promotional credit from Google or our partners. Before issuing a cash receipt, it's important to ensure that the user added to their balance using a cash equivalent (for example, a gift card).
