Best Practices for Product Performance
- Today, product performance leverages the category ID that is being used by Amazon.com (with plans to expand to other marketplaces).
- The tracking group is a list of products, and the products’ signals that live under those chosen categories, that will be tracked over time. This updating of the products’ signals is a backend process that constantly runs.
- New products that are added to the marketplace (in the chosen category) will automatically be added to the tracking group.
- Reports are returned as a CSV output containing all of the tracking group performance data within a given time period (up to three months prior).
- A product performance report can only be created after a product performance group is created (to retrieve the mandatory tracking group ID).

Because of the granularity of the report results, it is beneficial for users to delete a tracking group once they no longer wish to track it. This allows for shorter processing times for product performance reporting. Therefore, there are a limited number of tracking groups that can be created by each user. However, in order to remain under the threshold, users can delete a tracking group and create new tracking groups as needed.
