Clicks (all) occurs when someone clicks on any link or media on your Facebook Ad.

Link Clicks occurs when someone clicks a link or CTA (Call-To-Action) on your ad that sends them to your defined landing page or follow-up experience.

The Clicks (all) metric includes Link Clicks so your Clicks (all) will always be equal to or higher than your Link Clicks number!
