Video analytics in Media Studio - FAQs
What metric is used for the View count?
The main X Media Studio video view metric is triggered when a user watches a video for at least 2 seconds and sees at least 50% of the video player in-view. This applies to View metrics for both uploaded videos and live broadcasts. Media Studio metrics are inclusive of logged-in views only and do not include logged out and X web embeds data.
I am seeing promoted views on my video. Where are they coming from?
Promoted views can come from one of two places:
the account is part of the Amplify Pre-roll program and is getting promoted views after setting video(s) to ‘monetize’
the account’s posts are getting promoted as part of an ad campaign
If there are promoted views that you do not understand, please reach out to your X account manager. If you do not have an account manager, you can file a support ticket here: https://help.x.com/forms.
