Create playback custom reports

As a publisher, playback metrics help you understand how viewers engage with your content across players, properties, and playback sessions.

These metrics provide insight into content performance, viewer behavior, and playback trends so you can make more informed programming and engagement decisions.

Powered by Looker, playback custom reports allow you to analyze playback data:

• Generate reports using prebuilt templates or fully customized configurations
• Edit, save, and delete reports directly from your JWX dashboard
• Explore results through interactive visualizations, fields, and filters
