Discussion

Brand ad reports return one row per ad. Each row contains a metadata object with ad identifiers (including campaignId and adGroupId), totalMetrics aggregated over the full date range, and a granularMetrics array broken down by the selected granularity.

For Apple Maps ads, the metadata object includes a nested creative object (BrandsReportingCreative) with the creative’s id, creativeType, and systemStatus. There is no flat creativeId field. Filter by adGroupId or campaignId in the filters array to scope results.

See Filter for the full set of supported comparison operators.

Request Body

See BrandsReportingRequest.

Brand ad reports can be grouped by device type, business location, or ad placement.

Dimension

Description

deviceClass

Break down metrics by device type (IPHONE, IPAD).

locationId

Break down metrics per business location.

supplyPlacement

Break down metrics by ad placement.

Ad reports follow the standard date range rules per granularity, except HOURLY isn’t available at the ad level.

Granularity

Constraint

DAILY

Date range start must be within the last 90 days. Date range must be greater than one day.

HOURLY

Not supported for the AD entity. Use DAILY as the finest granularity.

WEEKLY

Date range start within the last 365 days. End date must be at least 14 days in the past.

MONTHLY

End date must be at least 90 days in the past.

To request a single day of data, omit granularity entirely. For a single-day request, the response returns results in totalMetrics only, since there is no granularMetrics breakdown to compute.

The EMPTY_METRICS value isn’t supported for business-brands ads, HOURLY granularity isn’t available, and only ORTZ or UTC timezones are accepted.

Constraint

Detail

EMPTY_METRICS

Not supported for business-brands.

HOURLY granularity

Not available for ads. Use DAILY as the finest granularity.

Timezone

Use ORTZ (reporting timezone) or UTC.
