Alert rules

Thresholds for traffic, conversion-rate and fraud alerts, and the offer link schedule. For network admins.

How big a change has to be before it's worth an alert. Every check already compares a campaign or publisher with its own history, so these numbers are about sensitivity, not about absolute volumes. Changes apply from the next check.

Fields and settings

FieldWhat it does
Traffic drop (%)Alert when the last 6 hours bring at least this much less traffic than the same hours usually do. 70 means alert below 30% of usual. Range 30–95. Effect: The alert closes once traffic is back above half way (65% of usual with the default).
Traffic spike (× usual)Alert when clicks reach this many times the usual. 3 means three times as many clicks as the same hours usually bring. Range 1.5–20.
Minimum clicks to judgeTraffic in a 6-hour window below this isn't judged — its ups and downs are noise. Applies to the usual level for drops, the current level for spikes, and to fraud spikes. Range 10–100,000.
Conversion-rate drop (%)Alert when a campaign's conversion rate over the last 24 hours is at least this much below its previous week, and at least 10 conversions were expected. Range 20–95. Depends on: The drop must also be statistically clear (under a 1% chance by luck). A complete stop is left to Postback Health.
Flagged traffic share (%)Alert when at least this share of a publisher's clicks in the last 6 hours was flagged or blocked, and it's at least twice their usual share. Range 5–95.
Check offer links automatically · intervalWhether every running campaign's offer URL is opened on a schedule — off by default — and how often while it's on (15 minutes to a day; every 60 minutes unless changed). Off, you can still check a link by hand on the Offer links tab, which has the same On/Off switch at the top.

Limitations

  • Restricted: Anyone with the Campaigns permission can see the rules; changing them needs the Settings permission.
  • Depends on: Who is notified, and whether each kind of alert notifies at all, is set under Settings → Notifications.
