When to use data sets in Coupler.io

Coupler.io data set templates cover a number of useful and practical use cases. We’re constantly adding new ones, so you can expect more to come in the future.

However, for now, let’s focus on existing ones that specialists in areas such as paid ads, web analytics, finance, CRM, and more can utilize.

Aggregate PPC metrics by week/month

By default, metrics from popular paid ad services, such as Google Ads or Facebook Ads, are organized around the ‘Date’ dimension. However, you do not always get statistics like impressions and clicks broken down the way you’d like. For example, having the data broken down by a single day is not useful if you want to track your campaigns’ performance to experiment with bidding strategies or for regular reporting. This is when aggregated weekly and monthly stats respectively prove much more useful.

To overcome this inconvenience and get an insightful paid ads report in no time, choose a Coupler.io data set template for marketing analytics (samples are listed below) and then, in the Transformations step, decide whether you want to view your data broken down by week or month:

View total Google Search Console stats for your top-performing websites

Google Search Console allows you to view daily performance statistics for each page of your website. If your website’s hierarchy is complex, featuring dozens of subpages, this creates a substantial amount of data to follow and work with.

Thanks to the Coupler.io data set template called ‘Top pages performance’, you can greatly simplify and speed up working with Google Search Console data. With a click, you can switch between total stats, monthly stats, and weekly stats for all your pages. Just choose the best approach for you and get instant insights on the performance of your top pages.

Monitor profit and loss records from QuickBooks for the current and previous month

QuickBooks can store an enormous amount of accounting and financial data. Use the “QuickBooks P&L Detail This / Last month” data set to view only key metrics to assess your recent financial performance. Sort and filter the records to laser-focus on specific accounts or transaction types to analyze different business activities. Or switch to aggregated views for a quick performance snapshot.
