How to create a new Coverage Report

How to select the columns included in a Coverage Report

Once the Coverage Report is created, you can choose which columns are included in the report by clicking into the Articles tab and navigating to the section labeled Edit Columns on the left side of the page. Under Edit Columns, toggle the columns you would like to display 'ON' and the columns you would like to hide 'OFF'.


Important info to keep in mind when creating a Coverage Report

  • Social media statistics and publication data for each article in your Coverage Report are compiled when you create your Coverage Report. This may take a few minutes depending on how large of a Coverage Report you are creating.

  • Giving each of your Coverage Reports a specific name will make it easier to find later. We recommend naming your report by campaign, time period (e.g. month, quarter, year) or client. 

  • Regardless of the method you choose to build a Coverage Report, duplicate URLs will not land in the final report. We automatically de-dupe article URLs across your report as new content is added.
