Whether to bid for ads on mobile devices, at either the campaign level or the ad group level:

Notes:

  • Ad groups inherit the campaign-level settings, but you can override them.

It includes any append parameters configured for the Search, Social, & Commerce campaign or account. If you generated tracking URLs, this is based on the tracking parameters in your account settings and campaign settings. If you appended ad network-specific parameters, they may be replaced with the equivalent parameters for Search, Social, & Commerce.

You can optionally add third-party redirects and tracking.

For Adobe Advertising conversion tracking, which is applied when the campaign settings include “EF Redirect” and “Auto Upload,” Search, Social, & Commerce automatically prefixes its own redirect and tracking code when you save the record.
