Merit-Based Routing
When Google Display & Video 360 touchpoints overlap with Conversion API platforms (like Google Ads or Meta), merit-based routing determines which platform receives the conversion based on your attribution model and conversion merit. If Google Display & Video 360 wins attribution, the conversion is recorded in OneView but not sent anywhere.Setup
Configure UTM parameters in your Google Display & Video 360 campaigns withutm_source identifying the platform. OneView automatically captures UTM parameters from all traffic sources—no additional configuration needed.How does merit-based routing work with attribution-only platforms?
How does merit-based routing work with attribution-only platforms?
When overlapping conversions occur, merit-based routing evaluates all touchpoints, including attribution-only platforms:
- OneView collects touchpoints from all sources (Google Display & Video 360 via UTM, Conversion API platforms via click identifiers)
- Your attribution model determines which touchpoint gets credit
- If the winner is a Conversion API platform (e.g., Google Ads, Meta), OneView sends the conversion to that platform's API
- If the winner is attribution-only (e.g., Google Display & Video 360), the conversion is recorded in OneView but not sent anywhere
- Google Display & Video 360 remains visible in reports showing it was part of the customer journey
