Step 1 - Look for the export/download icon.

Step 2 - Fill out the details. Name your export, choose the file type, and set the frequency you would like to receive the report. Then, press the “Export” button.

Advanced Search data can be exported as a CSV alone, or with creatives.

Step 3 - Go to the “Exports” tab at the top. From here you can download your report directly. Go to the “Scheduled” tab if you need to adjust your export settings.

After exporting the results, open the .csv file in Excel to create a Pivot Table.

Go to the Insert tab, press “Pivot Table” and press “OK”.

In the PivotTable Fields pop-up, customize your Table to suit your data needs.

In the “Field Name” section, check all the fields you want to include in your table. The checked fields will automatically appear in the “Values” section.

From the "Values" section, drag and drop fields that you want to create as rows in your Pivot table.

Make sure to adjust the “Values”, like Read Rate and Inbox Placement, to an Average to reflect percentages by clicking the i. Further clean up the data by altering title names and removing unnecessary decimal places.

And it's that easy to set up your pivot table! Keep reading to see some of our recommend pivot tables!
