The Page View Event

2024-08-28 08:52:30 UTC

This article will show you how to retrieve data from our Page View Event.

We have defined the page view event on our own to include page views across all newer versions on all platforms. This enables you to see the total number of page views for iOS, Android and Desktop in the same place.

The page view event shows how many pages have been shown to the readers. The event is triggered when a page is opened. If the device used is in landscape orientation, two-page view events are sent due to the visibility of two pages. This must be considered. If the reader rotates their device from portrait view, an additional page view is sent on top of the current page view.

When the custom report is made, it is saved to your customization tab and you can use the same one to get data for a new date range, you don't need to make a new report the next time you want data.
