📊 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:

• For Preferred Deals campaigns - the sum of placement impressions
• For Open Auction campaigns - the sum of product impressions
