Columns in the Summary view
Activity name
You can modify the name for the activity as it is used in Campaign Manager 360.
Status
The "Status" column indicates whether the activity is currently active, has been archived and disabled, or has been disabled due to a policy violation. You can change the status by going to the Floodlight activities tab and clicking the status dropdown.
- Active: Indicates the Floodlight activity is active and is serving.
- Archived: Indicates the Floodlight activity is hidden, but is still serving.
If you make changes to an Archived Floodlight activity and you want to continue collecting data, change the status to Active. If you no longer want to collect data, change the status to Disabled & archived.
Note that the Archived status is no longer supported. Once you change the status of an Archived Floodlight activity to something else, you will not be able to change it back.
- Disabled & archived: Indicates you have chosen to stop the Floodlight activity from serving. Both the Floodlight activity and it's alerts will be hidden by default. Remember to remove the Floodlight tags from the advertiser's website.
Note that dynamic tags will still fire.
Selecting Disabled & archived prevents Floodlight from:
- Counting conversions and including the data in reports that show aggregate conversions
- Creating remarketing lists
- Disabled - Policy violation: Indicates the Floodlight activity is violating Google policy and therefore is disabled. Contact your account manager for more information.
