Find the right starting point
Use platform announcements to identify a change, then decide whether your account or integration is affected. Record the announcement date and the effective date separately. A product launch does not by itself demonstrate better conversion performance or require a tracking migration.
- Check an API dependency
Identify the version used by reporting or campaign automation before updating it.
- Evaluate a new ad placement
Review available formats and define campaign labels for a pilot.
- Test the measurement setup
Validate new landing links and conversions before increasing spend.
