Limitations

Define your Data

Unfortunately, since the Vistar Media API does not provide the type of columns (dimensions and metrics) by default setting metrics type to Number and except date (as Date) all other dimensions type to String that are included in the report. Dynamically setting all the columns of selected report as dimensions and metrics and all fields are set to required . No need of manually select/unselect dimensions/metrics.

The timeframe of the data included in the report is set within the Reporting UI, so there is no date picker available.

Press Load Data to manually pull the report available from the Vistar Media.
