      AppsFlyer Mobile Integration

      This article is for Advertisers who want to link their AppsFlyer account to Spotify Ad Analytics for mobile app attribution.

      Applies to: Brands

      AppsFlyer is a third-party partner. Spotify Ad Analytics cannot provide technical support or troubleshooting for third-party services.

      Overview

      Tap into our integration with AppsFlyer, which enables data from AppsFlyer to be passed to Spotify Ad Analytics to perform attribution between in-app events and podcast ad impressions.

      Installation

      To link your AppsFlyer account:

      • Next, click the + sign under Alias Events and confirm that AppsFlyer is listed under your installation methods. If not, add it with the dropdown menu.
      • In your AppsFlyer dashboard, go to Configuration > Integrated Partners.
      • Select Spotify Ad Analytics (or Podsights if their UI is not updated).
      • Once you've added the Spotify Ad Analytics Integration, toggle on the Active Partner setting.
      • Enter your Pixel ID that you previously copied into the Spotify Ad Analytics_key field.
      • AppsFlyer sends two events by default: Install events and an AppsFlyer-generated ID that we are able to use as an alias ID. 
        • You can track additional In-App Events by adding them in AppsFlyer to send to Spotify Ad Analytics. 

      NOTE: All events must have Sending Options set to All media sources, otherwise Spotify Ad Analytics will not be able to perform attribution accurately.

      • Back in your Spotify Ad Analytics dashboard (https://dash.Spotify Ad Analytics.com/), go to Manage > Your Pixels, click on your pixel and click the Event Mappings tab.
      • In this tab, add an event mapping for each of the mobile events that you configured in the previous steps in AppsFlyer. To do this:
        • Click Add Mapping.
        • Enter the original Event Name. NOTE: the original Event Name must be entered exactly as it appears in your mobile attribution partner and it is case sensitive.
        • Choose the Spotify Ad Analytics Action Name that you would like to link to the original event.
        • Click Save Event Mapping.
      • You are now finished. After attribution, attributed events with the original event name will appear with the mapped Action Name in the pixel debugger and reports.
