View CTWA data in YCloud

In YCloud, go to CTWA > Ad Manage and select the connected ad account that you want to review. You can view one ad account at a time. A customer must click the ad and send a WhatsApp message before the resulting conversation can appear in YCloud.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Conversations metric in the ad list in Meta Ads Manager and the conversation data in CTWA > Ad Manage use different attribution scopes.In CTWA > Ad Manage, YCloud displays and counts WhatsApp conversations that Meta identifies as coming from a specific ad. This happens when a customer clicks the ad, enters WhatsApp, and starts a conversation, and Meta sends YCloud the matching ad information.Meta Ads Manager can also count conversations under Meta’s own attribution rules. For example, a customer may view your ad without clicking it, then later start a conversation from your business profile or another entry point. Meta may attribute that conversation to your ad. However, if the data Meta sends to YCloud does not include the matching ad information, YCloud cannot associate the conversation with that ad, so it is not included in YCloud’s ad data.
