It surfaces impressions, reach, profile_views, engagement (likes, comments, saves, shares), follower_count, and audience demographics (age ranges, gender distribution, top locations, active times). Every metric includes period-specific aggregation (day, week, lifetime, days_28) with timestamped values arrays.
