How Yandex Metrica collects data about Yandex Direct calls
When collecting data on calls from Yandex Direct, Yandex Metrica identifies users and links their sessions to phone calls by using Crypta technology.
To track calls, Yandex Metrica uses a special goal. It's named “Call” and is displayed in Yandex Metrica on the Goals page in the left menu. If a call was linked to a user's most recent session, Yandex Metrica records the achievement of the goal.
You can add the goal to all Yandex Metrica reports. When it's added to a report, goal metrics become available for it. You can choose a goal and its metrics as conditions for creating a segment.
In addition, you can use the goal and segments to advertise with Yandex Direct and Yandex Display, and to find potential customers (using look-alike technology) with Yandex Audience.
How to start getting statistics on calls
To collect statistics, use a Yandex Metrica auto-generated tag. When the options are enabled, it appears in the list of tags in the campaign settings in Yandex Direct, as well as on the My tags page in Yandex Metrica.
By default, tag access is available to the owner of the organization in Yandex Business and their representatives. You can manage access rights to the organization.
Call data appears in Yandex Metrica in 24 hours.
