Available views and date ranges
We have usage data in COUNTER 5 format available from January 2016 onwards. However, the metrics that are available for each platform varies by time period. Our plan is to not supply Item Master Reports.
C5 data audited
The Title Master Report for journals and eBooks on nature.com and SpringerLink are COUNTER release 5.0.2 compliant.
Supported file formats for reports
Springer Nature Librarian Portal: CSV and TSV; Via SUSHI: JSON.
Limits for number of months included in one report
There are no limitations. Be aware though, that the files can get quite big if you add several months.
