Order results
You can specify the order of rows in your response using the ORDER BY
clause,
which consists of one or more comma-separated sequences of:
FieldName ('ASC' | 'DESC')?
If you don't specify ASC
or DESC
after a field name, the Reporting API
defaults to ASC
.
The following ORDER BY
clause sorts a performance report by descending
impressions and ascending product offer IDs:
ORDER BY metrics.impressions DESC, segments.offer_id ASC
ORDER BY
is not allowed on non-selected metrics or non-selected segments.
Limit the number of results
You can limit the total number of results returned using the LIMIT
clause.
Combining this with results ordering, you can produce "top N" reports, such as a
report containing the five products with the highest impressions over the last
30 days:
Example
SELECT
segments.offer_id,
metrics.impressions
FROM MerchantPerformanceView
WHERE segments.date BETWEEN '2020-12-01' AND '2020-12-31'
ORDER BY metrics.impressions DESC
LIMIT 5;
Filtering (WHERE
clause) is not allowed on metrics without selecting them.
