Hi, 

I am trying to use the DFP API (Java) to run the Yield Group report, as seen here https://support.google.com/dfp_premium/answer/7386946?hl=en.


Assuming that there will be support in the API: I found that the Yield Group report contains "DoubleClick Ad Exchange" which I cannot find in the Admin/Companies view (the report contains OpenX, Sovrn, etc... which I can find in the Admin/Companies view).

Few questions: 
 - is there a way to fetch all of the Yield Groups, if not, when is it coming?
 - is there a way to run the Yield Group report as seen in the UI?
 - how to fetch the report filtered by YieldPartner == "DoubleClick Ad Exchange" (I cannot do it in the UI)?

BTW, assuming that "DoubleClick Ad Exchange" wins the auction, what will be the advertiserId returned by the GPT back to the client: https://developers.google.com/doubleclick-gpt/reference#googletagresponseinformation ?

And one more, I found it somehow hard to use the API docs to discover the logical structure of the data model, is there any diagram better then this one https://developers.google.com/doubleclick-publishers/docs/intro which covers more entities?

Thanks for help,
Cheers,

Hello,

Unfortunately, yield groups are not support via API and will need to use the UI. There isn't a current timeline for when they will be exposed but you can follow our blog for upcoming features in releases. To filter report by Yield partner = "DoubleClick Ad Exchange", did you try adding a filter for "Yield group partner type" and selecting "DoubleClick Ad Exchange" in the drop down? I have attached a screenshot of what it looks like on UI. We only have that diagram for the basic entities. Are there specific entities you have questions?

For the advertiser id returned by GPT, that can be better answered by our Product team. Please post any other product level or UI questions on their forum.

Thanks,
Nicholas Figeac, DFP API Team

Hi Nicholas, thanks for all the answers. See comments inline.

No API support? It sounds like a problem (probably for many who wants to export data for automated discrepancy checks, etc.).

Re "Yield group partner type" - I tried and I got nice "DoubleClick for Publishers encountered a problem loading your report. Please try again" (but many other reports are not working today, so what you are proposing might work - will check it again later). BTW isn't "Yield group partner type" deprecated?

I was just wondering if the Yield Group revenue per partner (company) has no overlap with the revenue per partner (company) reported under Orders/LineItems? For instance we have OpenX as a partner (Admin/Companies). We have Orders/LineItems for OpenX but at the same time we have OpenX in yield group. How can I get revenue from OpenX? Shall I get the revenue from Orders and sum it up with revenue from Yield group? Is that correct approach?

Same question re Impressions, it seems that Yield group impressions *are included* in Total Impressions but I though these will be exclusive (no overlap). 


For the advertiser id returned by GPT, that can be better answered by our Product team. Please post any other product level or UI questions on their forum.
Thanks for this, I will post there.

Hello,

Report services does not have the metrics for Yield Group, therefore DFP API Team cannot support Yield Group at this time. Your other questions are product level, can you please post them on the products forum? Please let me know if you have any other DFP API related questions.

Hello,

As mentioned previously, yield group metrics are currently unavailable via API. Please continue to use DFP UI for reports with yield group metrics.

Hi Nicholas,

Thanks for the update. Is there is any chance in near future would yield group metrics are available via API report?

Hi Nicholas,

Is there any update on this? Was hoping the 201802 release would make the yield group metrics are available via the API report but this doesn't appear to be the case

Is there currently any way to run a Yield Group report via the DFP API (PHP)?

Or anything planned?

Regards

Hello,

We are currently working on exposing Yield Group metrics via API. Unfortunately, I do not have a time frame of when they will be released. You can follow our blog for upcoming releases. The current work around for yield group metrics is to use the UI.

Hi,

Are there any news about this please? I didn't find any information in the blog but since the last message of this thread was several months ago, maybe things changed.

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

Please see the documentation in ReportService for the Dimensions where YIELD_GROUP_ID, YIELD_GROUP_NAME, and YIELD_PARTNER_TAG can be extracted via API. Yield group metrics are still not supported via the API. Please let me know if you need any clarifications.
