This article presents an alphabetical listing of the dimensions and metrics available in aggregated reports. For a complete listing of the metrics by type, see Aggregated Reports: Dimensions and Metrics Grid.
Note
This icon, 
, indicates that the metric is accredited by the Media Rating Council (MRC). This accreditation includes:
Relevant impressions and clicks metrics accredited for desktop, mobile web, and mobile In-App display and video
Relevant viewable and unique metrics accredited for desktop display and video
The units that occurred during the specific date range.
The length of time a video will run in seconds. If a video is not defined, the duration is set to 15 seconds.
The average time the ad appeared in the browser (in seconds).
Note
Note: Tracks up to 1,000 seconds.
Calculation:
The number of times that the user replayed a sequence (video or animation) within an ad. (This number includes auto- and user-initiated replays.)
The percentage of total full replays out of Impressions (Net). This includes auto- and user-initiated replays.
Calculation:
Available for VPAID (interactive) ad formats.
This delivery metric counts requested impressions from the publishers. Because IAB released a standard for mobile that counts Impressions (Net) only when the ad is loaded into the browser, this metric is especially beneficial for mobile impressions since it aligns the requested counter and the served counter. (For non-mobile impressions, these counts are identical.)
This metric enables advertisers to understand the difference between requests to the Sizmek server for served ads (Ad Requests) compared to our records for ads that displayed on the publisher property (Impressions (Net)), according to IAB standards. Currently, due to excess data, this metric is enabled for specific sites by permission only; you can contact your account manager for details.
The number of times the user's environment (browser/player) loaded the ad, with a maximum of one ad start per impression.
Ad Starts is measured differently across different channels:
Image: Sizmek triggers the Ad Starts event when the image loads completely.
Flash: If the browser permits, Sizmek reports Ad Starts when the second frame is played, otherwise it reports Ad Starts as soon as the flash is played.
HTML5: Sizmek triggers the Ad Starts event when the main iFrame loads completely.
This category appears as Ad Starts in Sizmek reports.
Note
Note: Sizmek collects Ad Starts for VPAID ads only.
Calculation:
The percentage of impressions, out of the total number of Impressions (Net), that successfully loaded.
Calculation:
The percentage of impressions, out of the total number of loaded ads, which were successfully recorded for viewable impressions evaluation purposes during IAB threshold data collection.
Calculation:
An attribution model is the set of rules that determines how credit for conversions is assigned in conversion paths.
For definition-heading Banner ads only, the total number of expansions that occurred without user intervention.
For definition-heading Banner ads only, the percentage of the total number of expansions that occurred without user intervention, out of Impressions (Net).
The average number of times that an ad was exposed to a unique cookie.
Calculation:
The average percentage of video viewed continuously at normal speed. Each section of video can only be considered once in the calculation. If a rewind event occurs while a video is playing, this metric represents the total amount of unduplicated video viewed at normal speed.
This metric complies with the IAB definition for percent complete Linear Video Ads with or without Companion Ad: Percentage of video viewed continuously at normal speed. If a rewind event occurs during play, percent complete may be calculated on total amount of unduplicated video viewed at normal speed. Each section of video may only be considered once in the calculation. This definition governs the triggering of any “partial play” metrics, such as the common quartile percentages (25%, 50%, 75%). Specifically, any partial play reporting must be based on the trigger being activated based on normal viewing speed.

This metric complies with the IAB definition for percent complete Linear Video Ads with or without Companion Ad: Percentage of video viewed continuously at normal speed. If a rewind event occurs during play, percent complete may be calculated on total amount of unduplicated video viewed at normal speed. Each section of video may only be considered once in the calculation. This definition governs the triggering of any “partial play” metrics, such as the common quartile percentages (25%, 50%, 75%).

Calculation:
Note
Note: The percentage can be higher than 100% because a single impression can generate multiple custom interactions.
