#### Creative Name

A name to identify the creative. Enter a name that makes it easy to distinguish in the creative list.

#### Destination URL

Enter the page URL to navigate to when the ad is clicked. The URL you enter is used as-is, so you can freely use tracking parameters or deep links.

| Type               | Example                                                          | Description                        |
| ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| **Web URL**        | `https://example.com/landing`                                    | Standard landing page              |
| **Tracking URL**   | `https://tracker.example.com/click?campaign_id=123&redirect=...` | URL with conversion tracker        |
| **Deep Link**      | `myapp://product/123`                                            | Navigate to specific screen in app |
| **Universal Link** | `https://example.com/app/product/123`                            | iOS/Android common deep link       |
| **App Store**      | `https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=...`              | Drive app installs                 |

<Note title="When using deep links">
  You don't need to separate Android and iOS—universal links or app links work across platforms. Configure fallback handling for cases when the app is not installed through your deep link service provider.
</Note>

<Note title="For conversion tracking">
  You can enter tracking links from AppsFlyer, Adjust, Branch, etc. as-is. URLs are passed without modification.
</Note>
