Interpret and analyze post-impression event type data
In one feed file, there is usually about one minute of change between first event and last event. REDS is delivered in near-real-time, so we recommend looking at wider data sets to get more accurate performance insights.
Calculate Video Completion Rate
Review 7-10 days' worth of data to identify which PostImpressionEventTypes are being returned. Please refer to the above mapping tables for IDs and definitions of PostImpressionEventType.
You can use PostImpressionEventType to understand the performance of your video creatives.
Step 1: Calculate Total Number of Video Starts
Filter to records with a PostImpressionEventType value of "1". The sum of the filtered VideoEventStart values is equal to the total number of Video Starts.
Sum = 1,213 Video Starts
Step 2: Calculate Total Number of Video Completions
Filter to records with a PostImpressionEventType of "5". The sum of the filtered VideoEventComplete is equal to the total number of Video Completions.
Sum = 1,041 Video Completions
Step 3: Calculate Video Completion Rate
Divide the total number of Video Completions by the total number of Video Starts and multiply by 100 to calculate the Video Completion Rate.
1,041 Video Completes / 1,213 Video Starts x 100 = 85.8% Video Completion Rate
