To see a custom view of your metrics, there are two types of reports you can create:

  • One-time custom reports: Create a one-time custom report if you have a specific use case and won’t need to reuse the same report later. You can run custom reports across one or multiple accounts.
  • Report templates: Create a report template to save custom reports that you use frequently. To easily re-run reports, you can schedule your report to run daily, weekly or monthly across one or multiple accounts, and automatically be emailed to you or anyone else.
  • Once you’ve created a report template or schedule, you can edit it in the custom reports page.

    Decide which type of custom report you'd like to run (one-time custom report, report template with no schedule or report template with a schedule). Then, create, run and schedule a custom report.
