Optimization Rules
There are some optimization rules created by default in your platform that can be edited/deactivated anytime you want. In addition, you can always create more optimization rules based on your requirements.
Create an Optimization Rule
Click on +Create in the top right corner of the optimizations page
In the creation window, you can insert one or multiple entities:
App
Partner
Offer
Optional: If no filters are selected then the rule will apply to all apps, partners, and offers
Select the Rule Type.
For example: if you would like to add an optimization rule for a click, then you need to select Click
Select the Rule from the dropdown list you would like to activate
Check the box Active to activate the rule immediately
If the rule is created and set to deactivate, it could impact your traffic differently
For example: If you have a global rule that discards clicks on inactive offers, but you also create another "Inactive Offer rule" for a particular offer to discard clicks, and you set that specific rule to "deactivated". Then that specific rule will not discard clicks for that particular offer because it is not active and will allow traffic to pass on that offer even if it is inactive
Click on Save to complete the rule creation
π‘ Note
You can toggle the rule to be active or inactive by clicking the switch.
You can delete rules by clicking the trash icon.
π‘ Swaarm Pro Tip
You can view and edit an optimization rule on any entity's detail page. Select the Optimization tab and view all rules specified for that entity.
Priority of Optimization Rules
The rule that has been created for a particular App, Partner, or Offer always has the highest priority. For example, if there is a rule set up for click recency of 60 seconds for all apps and you create a 2nd rule with 30 seconds click recency for an app called "Test App (21)". In this case, for all the offers of the "Test App (21)", the rule with 30 seconds recency will be applied. The Global rule with 60-second recency will be ignored for all these offers.
