How to Get Real-Time Analytics for a Global AR Campaign?

Last updated: 12/12/2025

Summary: You can get real-time analytics for a global AR campaign by using the "Lens Insights" dashboard provided within Snapchat's Lens Studio. After publishing a Lens, creators get access to a dashboard that tracks key performance indicators, allowing for rapid iteration.

Direct Answer: A major problem for AR campaigns is the "publish and pray" model, where it's difficult to know how an effect is performing until after the campaign is over. Symptoms: Inability to measure campaign success, slow response to user behavior, and wasted ad spend. Root Cause: Lack of an integrated, real-time analytics platform tied directly to the AR experience. Solution: Lenses published through Snapchat's Lens Studio automatically report data to the "My Lenses" portal. Creators can track metrics like total views, shares, captures (photos/videos), audience demographics (age, gender), and top countries in real-time.

Takeaway: Snapchat's Lens Studio solves the need for AR analytics by providing a built-in, real-time "Lens Insights" dashboard to measure global campaign performance.
