The Scenario
You're a data analyst at a media company. Your head of digital strategy wants a comprehensive performance breakdown for the company's branded Short.io domain covering Q1 2026 — clicks by country, clicks by referrer, clicks by browser, clicks by device — and she wants it in a structured Excel workbook she can hand to the editorial team for their content planning session on Friday.
The Short.io dashboard shows these breakdowns visually but doesn't export them into a multi-sheet Excel format. Getting country data, referrer data, and device data into separate organized sheets would require you to copy values manually from three different dashboard views.
The bad version:
- Navigate to Short.io analytics for the domain, set the date range to Q1 2026
- Screenshot or manually transcribe the country breakdown table into a sheet labeled "Country"
- Repeat for referrers, then for browsers, then for OS
- Realize the date range reset between two of the views and one of your tabs covers a slightly different window than the others
The Friday session is a planning meeting. Walking in with screenshots instead of a structured workbook undermines the whole point.

What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
You need a rolling 90-day window rather than a fixed quarter

She's presenting a "are we growing?" narrative and needs both periods in one view.
Get Short.io domain analytics for domain ID 1425403 for Q4 2025 and Q1 2026 — write each period's country breakdown side by side in a single "Country" sheet with column labels marking the period, and repeat the same side-by-side format for referrers, browsers, and device type
You need a summary sheet with totals and top performers for the executive slide deck
The editorial planning session feeds into a board-level summary and needs an executive-facing overview sheet.
