# Taboola Events

[Taboola ](https://www.taboola.com)is an advertising company that provides highlights such as "Around the Web" and "Recommended For You" boxes at the bottom of many online news articles.\
This destination allows [server-side tracking](https://help.taboola.com/hc/en-us/articles/115006850567-How-to-Track-Conversions-Using-Server-to-Server-Integration-S2S-).

## Key features

The Taboola Events destination provides the following key features:

* **Events structure**: our [Events reference](https://community.commandersact.com/platform-x/developers/tracking/events-reference) supports [Taboola events](https://help.taboola.com/hc/en-us/articles/115006850567-How-to-Track-Conversions-Using-Server-to-Server-Integration-S2S-), meaning that your data is properly bridged to the expected fields in an optimized way.
* **Prebuilt mappings**: data mapping for event-based destinations happens automatically, which simplifies user inputs.
* **Smart mapping**: data mapping can be readjusted using your datalayer defined fields.

## Destination setup

First, you need to enable server-side tracking in your Taboola campaigns by including the <mark style="color:blue;">`{click_id}`</mark> macro to your tracking code.
