Setting up Click URLs and Impression URLs

In order to perform successfully on the Liftoff platform, campaign click events are required, and impression tracking events are also recommended. Following is how to get Click URLs and Impression URLs from some main tracking partners.

Liftoff Macros for Tracking URLs

See below for a list of Liftoff macros you can use in your tracking URLs:

  • {{{aaid}}}: Google's Play Services Identifier for Advertisers (*required)
  • {{{app_id}}}: a Liftoff Direct App ID to identify your app in our system (*required)
  • {{{id}}}: a 24-character ID that is unique to each ad delivery (*required)
  • {{{ifa}}}: Apple's Identifier for Advertisers (*required)
  • {{{campaign_id}}}: a Liftoff Direct ID identifying the campaign in our system
  • {{{campaign_name}}}: the name of the campaign
  • {{{creative}}}: the name of the creative
  • {{{isu}}}: a fall back identifier, this is the OpenUDID for iOS and Android ID for Android (because of Apple's forced deprecation of OpenUDID, this is no longer preferred) 
  • {{{site_id}}}: a Liftoff Direct ID identifying the source; the app in which the ad was played

For a complete list of tracking macros and help, visit the Tracking URL Macros page.

Enabling View-Through Attribution

Because the majority of ad networks have view-through attribution enabled, we recommend that you do the same for Liftoff Direct to produce an accurate performance comparison of our network.
