What type of custom report shows a static sortable table with rows of data?

Flat Table
Explorer
Map Overlay
Pivot Table

The correct answer is: Flat Table

A flat table is a type of custom report in Google Analytics that presents data in a straightforward, sortable table format. This kind of report allows users to view their data in rows and columns, making it easy to analyze specific metrics and dimensions side by side. The arrangement in a flat table follows a static structure where each row corresponds to a different data point, while the columns represent different attributes or metrics related to those data points. This simplicity and clarity in layout make it an effective option for users looking to quickly sift through and understand their data without the complexity of additional features or formats. The other types of reports, such as Explorer, Map Overlay, and Pivot Table, serve different purposes. An Explorer report usually provides a more dynamic and detailed look into data relationships but doesn't stick to a static table format. A Map Overlay focuses on visual geographic data representation. Pivot Tables, while they can be dynamic and interactive, involve more complex data analysis that allows users to rearrange the data dimensions; they are designed for multi-dimensional data analysis rather than presenting a simple, sortable table.
