  2. Enable the Retargeting settings toggle for re-marketing campaigns.
  3. Set the CTA and VTA values mentioned as follows:
    • CTA: 7 days
    • VTA: 24 hours
      
  4. Share the CTA and VTA links with the Glance team.

For remarketing campaign

You can generate the attribution link for REM campaigns, which the Glance team uses while creating the campaign, as follows:
