Meta Conversions API Gateway Reporting Guide
Introduction
This guide will help you navigate through the reporting features available, enabling you to analyse your data and make effective decisions.
Key Reporting Metrics
The Meta Conversions API Gateway Reporting focuses on three critical metrics:
- Total Incoming Signals:
- Definition: The total number of events received by the gateway.
- Importance: Indicates the volume of data you’re collecting and attempting to send.
- Total Outgoing Signals:
- Definition: The number of events successfully transmitted to Meta.
- Importance: Reflects the efficiency of your data transmission process.
- EMQ Score (Event Match Quality):
- Definition: Event match quality indicates how effective the customer information parameters sent with your server event may be at matching events to Meta accounts.
- Importance: Higher scores generally lead to better ad targeting and performance.
Accessing the Reporting Interface
Once the Meta Conversions API Gateway setup has been completed, the user can access the reporting by clicking on the Signal count icon as shown in the image.
