Campaign Tracking

As per the definition, campaign tracking refers to method to keep track from where the installs are coming. Campaign tracking helps to analyze new users, returning users, In-app events, In-app revenues generated for the Ad networks and publishers.

To track the installs from a specific partner, the partner should be integrated with AdGyde. In case the partner is not added, please contact support@adgyde.com and we will help your partner to get onboard in no time.

Once the partner is integrated with AdGyde, now you can go ahead and setup the campaign through Dashboard.

How it works
Once the publisher gets the tracking link with the desired parameters, he can use the same to bundle and create its own Campaign URL to give it further to sub-publishers. No Parameter is mandatory but without at least 1 parameter the postback will not be useful. Publisher needs to make sure that the click id is generated at their end and same is passed to AdGyde Tracking URL so that the same can be returned back in postback for exact match.

Tracking URL supports multiple parameters which are listed below

1.   {clickid} = Click id
2.   {pub} = Publisher / Sub-Publisher running the campaign
3.   {cost} = Cost incurred by Advertiser for this campaign
4.   {sub1} = Custom Parameter 1
5.   {sub2} = Custom Parameter 2
6.   {sub3} = Custom Parameter 3
7.   {sub4} = Custom Parameter 4

When a user clicks on the Publishers URL, Publishers server replaces the Click id and other parameter values in AdGyde URL. AdGyde URL is then hit, AdGyde Server takes note of the details sent and opens the application page in Google Play Store with the provided details. The same details thereafter are passed to AdGyde SDK and returned back to Publisher through postback when required.
