Redirect process
- 1. A visitor clicks a tracking URL.
- 2. FourLook receives the request on a tracking domain or first-party bridge path.
- 3. FourLook validates required parameters for the selected tracking mode.
- 4. FourLook records click and attribution data when the request is accepted.
- 5. FourLook redirects the visitor to the destination URL for that mode.
Standard campaign redirects
- Standard campaign redirects may send traffic to a landing page, offer, rule-based destination, device-target destination, or fallback destination based on campaign settings.
Strict Google transparent redirects
- In /gads-click and GGADS strict transparent modes, FourLook redirects only to the declared redirection_url.
- FourLook may append its own click correlation parameter fl_click_id.
- These modes do not apply Split, rotation, cloaking destination changes, device/geo redirects, or fallback destinations.
Example
