The User Locations tab (FD)
This report shows geographic location data for the users that are generating the majority of your File Downloads (FD) traffic.
Start by setting up a filter
Use the Filters panel to customize your report. You can set these options:
If you've already set filters for another report's tab in the File Downloads - Historical reports, those filters are automatically applied when you access this tab. If this tab doesn't support one or more of those filters, you'll receive a message.
-
Date Range (Required)*. Click this field and determine a range of dates you want for report data. See Set the date/time range for a report for more information. You can also set a Timezone for this report. However, certain time zones may not work with this report because data is collected on an hourly basis using the UTC time zone.
-
CP Code (Required)*. A content provider (CP) code is a unique identifier we assign to you for reporting, billing, and monitoring traffic served over the Akamai network. Someone in your organization assigns a friendly name to a CP code when it's created—either via a tool in Akamai Control Center or an API, or with the help of your Akamai account representative. Click each desired CP code to include in the filter or, if you know the name or number of the desired CP code, type it in the Filter field to refine the results. You can also click All to include every CP code.
User agent strings need to be logged for proper visitors data
If no data is revealed after you apply filters, you need to enable user agent strings for the configurations you've set up with Akamai to distribute your content. This can be turned on using Property Manager in Akamai Control Center, if you have access, or your account representative can turn it on for you. User agent data is only collected from the time this feature is turned on.
