Setting up Click URLs and Impression URLs

In order to perform successfully on the Vungle 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.

Vungle Macros for Tracking URLs

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

  • {{{aaid}}}: Google's Play Services Identifier for Advertisers (*required)
  • {{{app_id}}}: a Vungle 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 Vungle 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 Vungle 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 Vungle to produce an accurate performance comparison of our network.
