A\uff1aYour campaign objective should guide your attribution window length. You may want to use a shorter window if your campaign is based around short-term impressions. This can also be a good way to get a benchmark of audience traffic. On the other hand, if your campaign is based around video ads, brand awareness, or long-term interactions such as in-app events, a longer window may be a better strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
