View Usage Information for a Message or Creative

On the Orchestrationthen selectUsage tab of the message or creative, you can view which items use the message or creative and the items that the message or creative uses. The ability to view dependencies between items enables you to see the items that a task depends on to work successfully. Usage information helps you identify how changes that you make to one item might affect another item.

Items That Use the Message or Creative

The first section shows the items that use the message or creative. For example, if the message is used in a task, the task is included in the list.

The Priority column displays the priority of like tasks that use the message or creative. Priority applies only to mobile spot, web spot, and mobile in-app message tasks because each of those task types might have two or more tasks that compete for the same resources. Other task types do not use prioritization.

For non-A/B test tasks, priority is on a scale of 1 through 5 (where 1 is the highest). The default is 3. An A/B test task has a priority of Test, which is higher than a non-A/B test task. An A/B test task always delivers its content.

You can change the priority of a non-A/B test task on the task’s Orchestrationthen selectPriority tab.
