Glad it was helpful!

This was very helpful! The URL hacking sounded especially interesting. Does this mean that it can be used for bulk matches and fuzzy logic? Sounds like it could save an incredible amount of time if so.

Very good video Ben. It is good to see info condensed in a way to refresh the knowledge. Great.
Now a question on top of that: working in a NFP, I need for some campaigns to create a report to compare a campaign evolution, YOY. Is there a way to do that when the same campaign this year starts in a different date, so I would have day 1 2022 compared to day 1 2023 and so on, and not based on the calendar days the campaign is running? Cheers

Hi there, great question, but we think you're better off asking this in the Trailblazer Community help section. Hope this helps! trailhead.salesforce.com/trailblazer-community/topics/TrailblazerCommunityHelp?sort=LAST_MODIFIED_DATE_DESC

What is the difference between custom report types and joined report?

[@OfficialSFBen]

Hey there! In a nutshell, custom report types define report structures, while joined reports combine data from different report types into a single view. Hope this helps!
