Note: Average Position as a metric is no longer used by most advertising platforms. It has been replaced with “Impression (Absolute Top) %" and "Impression (Top) %” metrics.

Learn more about it in the Google Ads Help Center and Microsoft Advertising Help Center.

Displays the weighted average position (or rank) of ads during the report's time range. For example, a value of 1 equals position 1, and a value of 1.7 equals an average position between 1 and 2. Positions are indexed starting at 1.

You can use this column in a formula column by specifying the Avg_pos variable.
