YouTube report template

Four pages: Start here, Overview, Videos and Traffic sources. Overview compares views, watch time, average view duration and net subscribers with the previous period, with a daily trend. Videos ranks your top videos by views with watch time, likes, comments and shares. Traffic sources shows how viewers found your videos each day.

Add YouTube as a data source in Datapipe by signing in with the Google account that manages the channel, choose the channel, then create this dashboard. Authorize Google Sheets separately. Datapipe prepares three worksheets and a copy link that replaces all three report sources. Save your private Data Studio report; scheduled refreshes update the same workbook.

YouTube Analytics usually finishes a day’s numbers two to three days later. Days without any views are left out by YouTube rather than shown as zero. Each refresh replaces the period with YouTube’s latest numbers, so recent days fill in over time.

Minutes watched divided by views for the selected days, shown in minutes and seconds. Each daily and video row also keeps YouTube’s own average in seconds.

No. Videos ranks your top 50 videos by views for the whole period Datapipe read, which the page shows as its start and end dates. Overview and Traffic sources follow the date range.

The sources YouTube reports for your channel, with the names YouTube Studio uses, such as YouTube search, Suggested videos, Browse features, External, Playlists and Notifications.

The last 90 days by default, up to 365. The dashboard opens on the last 28 days compared with the 28 days before.

The template, editable Data Studio copy, PDF and CSV are free. You need a Google account to save a copy. Datapipe plans apply when you connect and refresh your own data.
