Why it is important
The View-through Conversion Window metric allows advertisers to assess the impact of ad impressions on user behavior and conversions, providing valuable insights into the effectiveness of display campaigns.
By adjusting the view-through conversion window, advertisers can make informed decisions on the attribution model that aligns with their campaign goals and user interaction patterns.

Calculation example
For example, if you pick 30 days for a conversion action, then view-through conversions that happen within 30 days after an impression are tracked.
