# Data Overview

## Common metric combinations

* **Spend + Impressions + CTR by date** — track daily efficiency trends over a campaign flight
* **Campaign budget vs. spend** — join Campaigns with Campaign performance (daily) to see pacing
* **Ad format vs. conversion rate** — compare performance across creative formats in the Ads entity
* **Ad group targeting + spend** — understand which audience segments are driving cost

## Use cases by role

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Performance marketers" %}

* Export Campaign performance (daily) into Looker Studio to build a Reddit Ads performance dashboard
* Use Append in Coupler.io to combine Reddit Ads spend data with Google Ads and Meta Ads for a unified cross-channel view
* Monitor CTR and CPC trends day-over-day to catch underperforming campaigns early
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Media planners" %}

* Pull campaign budgets and objectives into a spreadsheet to track planned vs. actual spend
* Join the Campaigns entity with Campaign performance (daily) to see how each campaign is pacing against its budget
* Use the Ads entity to maintain a creative inventory and track which formats are active
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Analysts" %}

* Send daily performance data to BigQuery for long-term trend analysis and custom attribution modeling
* Pipe Reddit Ads metrics into ChatGPT or Claude to generate automated performance summaries
* Aggregate spend and conversions across multiple ad accounts using Coupler.io's Aggregate transformation
  {% endtab %}
  {% endtabs %}

## Platform-specific notes

* **CTR, CPM, CPC, and Conversion rate are not summable** — these are ratio metrics. Summing or averaging them across dates or campaigns produces incorrect results. To aggregate accurately, sum the underlying counts first (e.g., total clicks ÷ total impressions for CTR) and recalculate the ratio at the aggregation level.
* Date range parameters only apply to the **Campaign performance (daily)** entity — the other entities return current configuration data, not historical records
* If you manage multiple Reddit Ads accounts, you can specify all of them in the **Ad accounts** parameter to pull data from each in a single data flow
* Reddit Ads reporting data can have a delay of up to 24 hours, so very recent days may show incomplete numbers
* Reddit does not support breakdown dimensions (e.g., by device or placement) in the current Coupler.io integration — daily campaign-level data is the most granular available
