Video analytics in Media Studio - FAQs

What metric is used for the View count?

The main Twitter 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.
 

I am seeing promoted views on my video. Where are they coming from?

Promoted views can come from one of two places: 

1.  the account is part of the Amplify Pre-roll program and is getting promoted views after setting video(s) to ‘monetize’

2. the account’s Tweets are getting promoted as part of an ad campaign
    

If there are promoted views that you do not understand, please reach out to your Twitter account manager. If you do not have an account manager, you can file a support ticket here: https://help.twitter.com/forms.
