About this module

Where your traffic actually came from. Channel rules, the processing waterfall, attribution models, engagement periods, and why Direct lies to you.

Every business eventually argues about which channel deserves credit for a sale. Marketing Channels is the feature that settles it, and the settings behind it decide who wins that argument.

This module covers naming the channels your business actually has, and the rules that sort traffic into them. Those rules run as a waterfall, so their order decides everything. It also covers engagement periods, which quietly govern how long a channel keeps earning credit after the click. It ends with troubleshooting, because these reports fail confidently rather than visibly.
