The social network began testing ways to help businesses determine the success of their campaigns across platforms in March 2017, after shuttering its Atlas ad-serving platform and folding its team into Facebook’s measurement department.

Facebook Attribution—which was turned on for all advertisers Wednesday—enables businesses to gain a better grasp of the customer journey.
