Export errors
Export option allows you to extract needed data and download it in a CSV. file. No matter which type of data you want to export - the file appears in the Export section where you can download it.
Each time when you run export you can watch the status of the process:
In progress
Finished
Aborted
Bad request
The Aborted and Bad request statuses mean the export can't be performed.
Aborted status: what to do?
This status appears when you're trying to export data on conversions in the Conversions slice of Statistics.
The reason: you don't have relevant permissions.
Solution: get the following permissions
Statistics -> Conversions list -> Read/Write
Statistics -> Conversions export -> Read
Statistics -> Export stats -> Read
Bad request: what to do?
This status appears when you're trying to export clicks/conversions data in Statistics.
The 1st reason: you've inserted more than 100 values in a filter box. Despite the Statistics are shown regardless of the number of values, export can't be processed in such cases.
The following filters have limits on values regardless of the Statistics slice:
Affiliates
Advertisers
Offers
Countries
Devices
OS
Smartlink
Goals
Conversion ID
Solution: insert less values.
The 2nd reason: you've exceeded time frame limits.
Solution: make time frames shorter. There should not be more than 7 days for detailed clicks statistics or 62 days for conversions.
