AppsFlyer

If you have the integration with AppsFlyer, you can view data from this tracking platform on Affise too. You don't need to switch between platforms to analyze all the information.

Connect Affise and AppsFlyer

To get statistics from AppsFlyer, you need to connect it with Affise.

To start with AppsFlyer, enable the plugin in Marketplace > AppsFlyer.

You need to insert the AppID and Token, which you get on the AppsFlyer side.

  • AppID: an ID of the application to get the statistics for.

  • Token: your API token used to connect Affise and AppsFlyer via API.

If you have the AppID like id123456789 (for App Store) or com.hoteltonight.android.prod (for Google Play Market), insert them as they are. If you have several AppIDs, separate them with a comma.

On the AppsFlyer side, you need to have access to Pull API. Do the following:

  • to be registered in AppsFlyer as an agency or an agency&network.

  • to be allowed to get data by API from your advertiser (they should allow API usage).

If you are an agent in AppsFlyer and don't see the data on Affise, ask the advertiser to provide you access to aggregate organic data and raw data reports.
