- Obtain Your Tracking Link:
Start by retrieving your tracking link from your Product Data Feed. - Prepare for Debug Mode:
If you suspect there is an issue with your tracking link, you can check it using debug mode. This mode allows you to view information about the link without actually triggering the redirect. - Modify the Link:
To enable debug mode, copy your tracking link and add a question mark ? at the end of the URL.
Example: https://example.com/your-tracking-link? - Activate Debug Mode:
After the question mark, add debug=true.
Example Link in Debug Mode:
https://tr.lineads.ai/5e2c678809f4dc7666051ab065dd67?debug=true - Run the Link:
Paste the modified link into your browser and run it. This will display detailed information about the tracking link. - Analyze the Output:
- If there is an issue, you might see errors such as “Product Not Found,” indicating that the product is no longer active.
- Another common error is “Merchant Inactive,” which means the merchant associated with the link is no longer active.
