Dashboard API/Welcome

Decide Dashboard API

Here you will find all the documentation you need to get up and running with the Decide Dashboard API. The API exposes the same publisher and advertiser performance data you see in the Decide dashboard, so you can pull it into your own reporting.

Jump in to the quick start docs to see the first step to make authenticated requests:

Dive a little deeper and start exploring our API reference to get an idea of everything that’s possible with the API:

What’s here#

The documentation is organized around the two account types the API serves:

• Publishers — ad unit performance: requests, impressions, estimated revenue, fill rate, and referral rate, with optional breakdowns by site, device, and day.
• Advertisers — campaign performance: spend, impressions, conversions, referrals, and the derived CPA, CPC, and CPM, with optional breakdowns by creative, device, and day.

Two supporting pages describe the shape of what comes back: Columns lists every field that can appear in a row, and Data Types explains how each field is formatted. Before you build anything that polls, read Rate Limits.

Before you start#

You will need a Decide dashboard account. Requests are authenticated with a login token generated from your dashboard username and password — there is no separate API key to request. See Quick Start for how to generate one.
