Clicks Event Log — Sub-Affiliate Network Context

A walkthrough of the Offer, Partner and Network columns and filters on Events → Clicks. If you run a partner program and want to know how a given partner or offer is performing at the click level, this is the part of the screen that answers it.

These columns and filters only appear if your plan includes Networks / Partners. If you don't see them and you think you should, contact support.

What this adds

Some of your clicks don't come from your own traffic sources — they arrive through a partner's link, sent against a specific offer in one of your sub-affiliate networks.

Until now the clicks log could tell you the traffic source, brand, account and your own sub-ids for those clicks, but not which offer, which partner, or which network they came through. Now it can, on every row.

Use it to:

• See at a glance which clicks came from partners rather than your own traffic.
• Jump straight to the offer, partner or network behind a click.
• Narrow the whole log to one offer, one partner, or one network.
• Compare partners against each other at the click level, before any conversion has happened.

Offer / Partner

All three values share one column, because they're one fact about the click. Each row reads:

Offer Name | Partner Name
Network Name

• Offer — the specific deal the partner was promoting when the click happened.
• Partner — the sub-affiliate who sent the click.
• Network — the sub-affiliate network that owns the offer, on the second line.

Every name is a link. Click it to open that offer, partner or network in its own page; ⌘/Ctrl-click or middle-click to open it in a new tab without leaving the report.

To narrow the report instead of navigating, use the funnel button at the right of the cell. It offers "Filter by offer", "Filter by partner" and "Filter by network" for that row. Your date range and every other filter stay as they are, so you keep the view you were already looking at. On a phone, the same three actions appear as buttons when you expand a card.

Most rows are blank — that's normal

The majority of clicks do not come through a sub-affiliate link, so this column is empty on most rows.

An empty cell means "this click did not come through a partner" — it does not mean data is missing or something failed. If the whole column is blank, you simply had no partner traffic in the selected date range.

Partner can be empty while Network isn't

That's not a gap: some offers belong to the network as a whole rather than to a single partner, so there's no partner to name. To ask "did this click come through a network at all?", look at whether the network line is filled in.

Filtering

The Filter button carries three new pickers — Network, Partner and Offer. They narrow each other in that order:

• Pick one or more networks first and the Partner and Offer lists shrink to just what belongs to those networks.
• Pick partners and the Offer list shrinks again to those partners' offers.

Each picker searches as you type and loads more as you scroll, so a long partner or offer list is never a problem.

The search box at the top of the page also matches offer, partner and network names, alongside the account, link, brand and traffic-source names it already matched.

Names are resolved fresh each time you load the page, so renaming an offer or a partner updates its name on historical clicks too.

Sorting

Click the Offer / Partner header to sort by offer name. Because the three values share one column, that column sorts by the offer — to group by partner or network instead, filter to the one you care about.

To sort by more than one column at once, hold ⌘ (Mac) or Ctrl (Windows) while clicking the second header. The first column you picked stays the primary sort and the second becomes the tie-breaker — useful for, say, grouping by offer and then reading each offer's clicks newest-first.

Click a header a third time to drop it from the sort. On a phone, use the sort button in the toolbar; it sorts by one column at a time.

Common questions

A partner's clicks aren't showing up. Check the date range first — the clicks log defaults to the last 6 hours. Then confirm the partner is sending against an offer that still resolves; an offer that was deleted leaves the click in place but with no offer, partner or network to show.

The offer is filled in but the partner isn't. Expected for network-level offers, which have no partner. See Offer / Partner above.

I see a network I don't recognise. Networks here are your own sub-affiliate networks. Open Networks from the sidebar to see them all.

When to escalate to engineering

• A click shows an Offer or Partner that belongs to someone else's network.
• Partner traffic you can confirm arrived (it shows in the network's own reporting) has no Network on any row across a wide date range.
• Filtering by an offer returns clicks whose Offer column shows a different offer.
