Where it lives

Links & Attribution sits under Affiliate, at Affiliate campaigns.
A campaign's Links tab, with one tracked link per partner and the clicks and conversions recorded against it.

Before you start

How it works

Each partner gets exactly one unique referral link per campaign, provisioned automatically when the campaign reaches them: publishing an experience that carries the campaign’s affiliate block gives every partner in that publish a link, and a partner who opens the block without one gets it minted on the spot. Generate links on the campaign’s links tab does the same thing on demand. Clicks are tracked with a signed token so the partner association cannot be spoofed. Attribution is governed per campaign by two settings: the attribution window, how long after a click a conversion still counts, and the attribution model, last click or first click. Links live on the campaign’s links tab, where you can see per-partner clicks and conversions, set a vanity alias, and revoke or restore a link.

Settings & configuration

Attribution and links are managed on the campaign at Affiliate campaigns.

Attribution window

On the general tab, set how many days a click remains valid for attribution. A conversion outside the window is not credited to the partner.

Attribution model

On the general tab, choose last click or first click. Last click credits the most recent partner; first click credits the partner who introduced the visitor.

Vanity alias

On the links tab, set a custom alias for a partner’s link to give them a cleaner URL to share.

Revoke and restore

On the links tab, revoke a link to disable it immediately, or restore a previously revoked link.

Troubleshooting

The attribution window only counts conversions that arrive after a tracked click. If tracking is not installed on the destination, no clicks are recorded and nothing can be attributed. Changing the model affects how future conversions are credited, not past ones.
It arrived outside the attribution window, or no click was tracked.
The alias is already in use on the campaign.
