Map In-App Events

Mapping events allows mDSP to optimize for actions beyond the install, such as purchases or registrations.

1. Complete the basic setup:

  • Toggle In-App Event Postbacks to ON.
  • Postback Window: Select Lifetime.

2. Add your events:

  • Click Add Event and select all the SDK Event Names (e.g., af_complete_registration) you'd like to share.
  • Map it to the corresponding Partner Event Identifier under the "Mapped to partner event" section (e.g., purchase).
  • Under the "for users from" section, select "All media sources, including organic."
  • Under the "including" section, select "values and revenues" if applicable.

💡 The more events you map, the better.

We strongly encourage building a comprehensive event funnel.

Set Up Attribution Links

1. Leave the Attribution Link Parameters as default.

2. Define your attribution windows:

  • Click-Through Lookback Window: Set to 7 Days.

Note: mDSP uses a single-platform link by default. Only use OneLink if cross-platform redirection (Universal Links/App Links) is strictly required.
