Frequency Cap Alignment Troubleshoot Check
Release Date: September 23rd, 2026
A new Frequency Cap Alignment check has been added to Troubleshooting to identify differences between the Cap By settings configured at the Campaign and Line levels.
When frequency capping is enabled at both levels, this check compares the selected identifiers and highlights potential differences that may impact delivery.
Check Results
- Pass: Campaign and Line frequency caps use the same Cap By setting: {cap_by}.
- Pass – Not Applicable: Frequency capping is configured at the {level} level using {cap_by}. Frequency capping is not enabled at the other level, so Campaign and Line Cap By alignment is not applicable.
- Warning – Different Settings: Campaign and Line frequency caps use different identifiers. Campaign Cap By: {campaign_cap_by}. Line Cap By: {line_cap_by}. Frequency caps at both levels are applied independently, which may further restrict delivery. Confirm that the settings are intentional and appropriate for the targeted inventory.
