Which Attribution settings govern conversions in the Conversion Performance Report in the Advertising workspace of Google Analytics?

Property Level Attribution Settings

Google Ads Attribution Settings
Data-Driven Attribution
Last Non-Direct Click Attribution

Explanation:

In Google Analytics 4 (GA4), the attribution model used for most reports, including the Conversion Performance Report within the Advertising workspace, is determined by the Property Level Attribution Settings. This means that the attribution model you select in the Admin section for your GA4 property (e.g., Data-driven, Paid and organic last click) will govern how conversion credit is assigned across different touchpoints in those reports. Any changes made to this setting will typically apply to both historical and future data in the relevant GA4 reports, providing a consistent view of your conversion performance.

This official Google Analytics Help page explicitly states, “The Attribution settings page lets you choose how Google Analytics assigns credit to different ads, clicks, and other factors before users trigger key events and Google Ads web conversions.” It also details how changing the “Reporting attribution model” in these settings impacts your GA4 reports.

An advertiser relies heavily on incrementality to measure offline and online media and is considering adopting a Marketing Mix Model for the first time. The director of analytics is considering both third-party and in-house solutions. They have a budget to run a third-party Marketing Mix Model (MMM) and a robust data science team who could build an in-house model. They spend the majority of their media budget on digital and prioritize measurement solutions that are digital-savvy.
In what two ways would Meridian, Google’s open-source MMM solution, be a good fit for this advertiser? Select two answers.

The advertiser has allocated funds to run an MMM through a third-party vendor.

Meridian helps advertisers evaluate all media, but especially digital, with more accuracy and actionability.
The advertiser has in-house data science expertise to build and maintain Meridian.
Meridian is a replacement for the advertiser’s own multitouch attribution and incrementality testing.

Explanation:

The given answer is correct. Meridian would be a good fit for this advertiser in these two ways:

Meridian helps advertisers evaluate all media, but especially digital, with more accuracy and actionability. Meridian is Google’s open-source MMM solution, designed to provide better insights into both online and offline media, with a particular strength in digital channels by leveraging Google’s proprietary data (like YouTube reach and search query volume). This aligns with the advertiser’s focus on digital and prioritization of digital-savvy measurement.
The advertiser has in-house data science expertise to build and maintain Meridian. Meridian is an open-source solution. This means it requires a capable in-house data science team to set up, customize, and maintain the model. Since the advertiser has a robust data science team, this open-source nature is a benefit, allowing for transparency and tailoring the model to their specific needs, avoiding “black box” third-party solutions.
