# Brands

This report shows brand visibility in ChatGPT shopping results. It gives how
often each brand appears, its average position, and its rank. Select the brands
with `assets`. Divide the results with `group_by`. Each metric is a named field
on the row.

* **Metrics:** `visibility_score` (the share of shopping results that include the brand); `average_position` (the average rank when the brand appears — a **lower** number is **better**); `visibility_rank`.
* **`group_by`:** `date`, `topic`, `region`, or `prompt`.
* **Brand selection:** Select the brands with the `assets` parameter. Give one name or a list. `scope: "all"` ranks all brands. `scope: "owned"` (the default) returns only your brands. An `assets` selection returns one page and ignores `limit`.
* **Filter fields:** `topic`, `region`, `persona`, `prompt`, `tag`.

<Note>
  Shopping data comes from ChatGPT only. No shopping report has a `model`
  group\_by or a `model` filter.
</Note>

<Note>
  The v2 reports share one request shape. For the filter tree, grouping, and
  pagination, see [Filtering & concepts](/rest-api/reports/reports-v2-overview).
</Note>

<Accordion title="Streaming (SSE) variant (same body, /stream)">
  `POST /v2/reports/shopping/brands/stream` uses the **same request body**. It
  returns [Server-Sent Events](https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/API/Server-sent_events):
  one `summary` event (the `info` block), then one `result` event for each row.
  The stream rejects `limit` and `cursor`. It returns all rows by default. To
  set a maximum, use `max_results` (maximum 50000). Use the stream to get a
  large result in one request.
