Frequently Asked Questions
Why do many visits appear as Direct?
Direct can mean the link opened directly or that referrer information was not sent by the app, browser, or privacy policy.
Are visit sources always exact?
The data only reflects received referrers. For stronger comparisons, use a different s.id link on each channel.

Data Boundaries to Understand
Keep these boundaries in mind so you interpret the data according to what the product measures.
- Apps, browsers, or privacy settings may omit referrer information, so a visit source cannot always be recognized.
- The dashboard shows recorded top sources, not a complete list or definitive identity for every channel.
