2. Campaigns with a significant drop in key events (LNDA attribution)

Some of your campaigns have had a significant drop in key events when comparing 2 days ago to the previous interval average using session-scoped (LNDA) attribution. Check if there is a reason behind the drop, or if it is due to natural factors such as seasonality, short-term campaigns, etc.

3. High-value campaigns with a significant drop in key events

Some of your high-value campaigns have had a significant drop in key events when comparing 2 days ago to the previous interval average using default attribution (DDA). Check if there is a reason behind the drop, or if it is due to natural factors such as seasonality, short-term campaigns, etc.

4. High-value campaigns with a significant drop in key events (LNDA attribution)

Errors

1. Events with significant shifts in attribution

This could be due to changes in user journey patterns, cross-device tracking issues, campaign tagging inconsistencies, or integration problems between platforms. Review the affected source/medium and their full conversion paths to understand the attribution differences and take action accordingly.
