Understand your seller insights report

What are seller insights?

All VM and usage-based billing developer services publishers receive monthly reports from Microsoft, if their offers are generating usage.

What will I receive?

  • Welcome email: As a new publisher, you will receive a welcome email to notify you that you will begin receiving the seller insights monthly reports.

  • Monthly sales reports: If you have usage, you will receive a second email that contains your reports and instructions on how to access your password:

    • If you have a VM or usage-based billing developer services SKU that is generating usage, your monthly report will show you details about the orders, usage, markets, and customer details for your offers.
    • Reports are locked with a password that only you and Microsoft know in order to protect your customers’ data.
    • Microsoft will not send a report if none of your offers have generated usage during the month.
