Hi! I was just wondering if Google Ads supported DMA and/or Region breakdowns for video_view metrics! Thanks!

Hi ,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Kindly note that you may contact The Nielsen Company directly for DMA data. You may check this documentation for more information.

The Nielsen Company: https://markets.nielsen.com/us/en/contact-us/intl-campaigns/dma-maps/
documentation: https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/data/geotargets#dma

On the other hand, you may also use the geographic_view report and select the metrics.video_views and segments.geo_target_region. As the geographic_view includes all metrics aggregated at the country level, one row per country.

geographic_view: https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v13/geographic_view
segments.geo_target_region: https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v13/geographic_view#segments.geo_target_region
metrics.video_views : https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v13/metrics#metrics.video_views

If in case that this is not what you are referring to, please provide us with the entire UI screenshot where you can see the expected data you want to retrieve in the API. As the API mirrors the UI. You may then send the requested information via the Reply privately to author option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to our googleadsa...@google.com alias instead

Best regards,
