Attribution is the process of determining whether a conversion was driven by exposure to an ad, and assigning credit to a given ad or ads. Two common types of attribution include last click attribution and last view attribution. The last click method attributes a conversion to the last ad that user clicked on, and the last view method attributes a conversion to the last ad that user viewed. Beeswax uses a combination of last click and last view attribution in reporting.

When a conversion event occurs:

There is no need to associate a conversion event to a specific line item, as conversions are attributed at the advertiser, campaign, or line item level. A conversion event can be linked to a click or impression from any line item within the advertiser. |
- In a desktop or mobile web environment, Beeswax captures the user_id on the conversion event via the Beeswax cookie ID found in the header of the http call to Beeswax. In mobile apps, Beeswax receives the auction_id or device_id in the postback call.
- Within the event's lookback window, Beeswax searches through that advertiser’s the advertiser's impression logs to find a click with matching click. For desktop and mobile web, it looks for a matching user_id for desktop and mobile web or auction_id for mobile app within the event’s lookback window. For mobile apps, it searches for either a matching auction_id or device_id.
- If matching clicks are found, the conversion is attributed to the most recent matching click within the event’s lookback window.
- If no matching click is found within the lookback window, but matching impressions exist, the conversion is attributed to the most recent matching impression within the event’s lookback window.
