Paid and Organic Data in Unified Analytics
Unified Analytics processes both paid and organic data. This article explains where and how you can utilize paid data.
Paid module
You can analyze the paid analytics data in the dedicated Paid module.
Ad accounts data are available from the following social networks:
Facebook
Instagram
Messenger
X (formerly Twitter)
TikTok
Audience Network
Publisher Network
Paid boards use data from Marketing API and the data source is always an ad account.
Campaigns data availability coming soon.
Widgets on a Paid module board indicate ads data - great if you plan to share your board with your stakeholders or clients. For more information, see Share a Unified Analytics Board.
Paid vs Organic data split in general boards
Organic vs Paid data split feature is currently available in Facebook boards only in the Profile performance module (Facebook Overview and Facebook Performance). This mirrors the functionality added to selected Dashboard widgets. For details, see the Organic vs Boosted/Paid split option (Facebook only) section in Content impressions.
Unified Analytics relies on data as served by the respective available API calls. Those typically result in organic and paid data coming in a single stream.
Some APIs allow us to process organic and paid data separately. In such cases, you can analyze data in two types of widgets:
