The following section describes how to set up parameters and options for each action.
Send Conversion
We recommend using the Reddit Conversions connector Conversion ID configuration only if you are implementing both the Reddit Pixel tag and the Reddit Conversions connector. Using the Conversion ID configuration prevents the same conversion event from being counted twice if it is sent across both sources. If this value is passed improperly, it will impact attribution and campaign performance.
