When you first generate a data-driven attribution (DDA) model, Search Ads 360 starts an initial learning period that considers the interaction patterns that result in conversions as well as those patterns and those that do not result in conversions. Even after the initial learning period, the DDA model continues to learn.
To view the status of a DDA model:
-
Navigate to the advertiser that contains the DDA model.
Steps for navigating to an advertiser-
Click the navigation bar to display navigation options.

In the "Agency" list, click on the agency that contains the advertiser. You can search for an agency by name or scroll through the list.
-

Search Ads 360 displays the advertiser page, which contains data for all of the advertiser’s engine accounts.
