How do I create a custom report, and what information can it give me?

Building a Custom Report allows you to create a report from scratch while allowing you to choose your own dimensions, metrics, and timeframes. You can start by accessing the reports tab as described above.

When building a custom report, you have control over:

  • Report Type

  • App

Properties

Selecting a single property automatically determines the report type (Web or App).

  • App Properties: Will disable the Site dimension to ensure the query only looks for relevant data.

Date Range Options

  • Standard Time Frames: Use preset ranges (e.g., Last 7 Days).

What delivery methods/options are available for reports?

Email is the delivery method we offer. You can enter one or many emails as the recipient/s. You are able to:

  • Deliver Immediate Report - The report is processed and emailed to the selected addresses immediately.

  • Schedule Automated Delivery - The report is set to run automatically (e.g., Daily, Weekly, Monthly) and is automatically saved.

  • Save Only - Saves the report to your Saved Reports list without scheduling it for delivery.

Note on Scheduling and Saving: If you schedule a report for delivery, it is automatically saved to your list of Saved Reports. Reports can be saved without being scheduled, and you can manage all of your Saved Reports using the actions described below.

⚠️ Important: Reports with a custom date range can only be delivered as an immediate report.

How do I schedule a report? 

  1. Navigate to the reports window in your account by following the directions above. 

  2. A panel will appear on the right. 

  3. Select the desired report options. You may create and schedule a new report or schedule a previously saved report, described below, from this view.

⚠️ For custom reports, you must select at least one dimension and one metric to proceed to delivery.

  1. Enter the email address(es) to which you'd like your scheduled report/s delivered. 

  2. Select the desired options for delivery schedule

⚠️ Immediate delivery is the only available option for custom timeframe reports. 

  1. Click Submit.

How do I manage my scheduled reports?  

All reports you create and save will appear in the Saved Reports section.

  • Editing Reports: When you edit and save a report, the most recently edited report moves to the top of the list.

  • Disabling a Schedule: You can edit a scheduled report and disable the automation. The report will remain in your saved list but will be marked as "Not Scheduled."

  • On-Demand Delivery: For any saved report (scheduled or not), clicking the airplane icon allows you to generate an immediate, one-off delivery.

    • This action retains the saved dimensions and metrics but allows you to override the date range and report type (web/app) for that specific run.

  • Delete a Report: You may consider disabling a schedule or editing the email recipients of a report first, but you are also able to delete a report entirely under the Saved Reports section.

Why is the Continue to delivery button grayed out when I try to setup a report?

This happens when you haven’t selected at least one dimension and one metric before proceeding to delivery setup.

Do I have any other options for getting reporting from Sovrn?
