Where can I see Conversion Zones in TapClicks?
Simpli.fi's Conversion Zone Reports can be found in the Geo Fence data views in TapClicks. This is because the report that contains this information is called "Organization Geo Fence Conversions by Geo Fence” If you're looking to see these values and can't, please contact customercare@tapclicks.com to review your options.
I can't see all the organizations I expected to see in my assignment list. What's wrong?
You may need to specify a "Platform ID" in your connection screen. The "Platform ID is an option and leveraged only if your account manages multiple platforms within Simpli.fi. If you do manage multiple platforms but don't specify this field, only the Organizations and Campaigns under the first platform your account was associated with will be returned.
Why do I see a geo fence called “Unknown”?
This is a value that is returned by the Simpli.fi reporting API and these rows represent non-geofence-based locations. If you don’t wish to report on these rows, you can filter these out of your TapClicks dashboard by using widget or dashboard filters.
What if I need data from Simpli.fi that TapClicks doesn’t quite support?
There are a few ways to approach this situation.
1] Create a Smart Connector to bring data into your dashboard.
- This will allow you to get to your data fast.
- This path could be used in the long term.
- Or you can use this path while waiting for an enhancement to the Simpli.fi connector.
2] Submit a request to the product team to evaluate bringing this data into the Instant On connector.
- Make sure to include report extract examples so that we can review exactly the dimensions and metrics you’re looking for in your dashboard.
- If you need help with this process, feel free to reach out to your Customer Success Manager or customercare@tapclicks.com.
NOTE: If you submit a request to the product team, please include which Simpli.fi report template you used as a baseline for the data you need from Simpli.fi. This will help expedite your request. Additionally, the report templates with Organization in their title tend to be more scalable for our data processing needs. If you can include a sample report extract of the data you’re looking for as well, this will further expedite your request. |
