Event callbacks

Adjust sends an event callback every time a user completes an Adjust-reported in-app event. You need to set up event callbacks individually for each event token in your app.

Note:
Event names can always be modified in AppView, and so you should use the {event_name} placeholder as a human-readable label. Conversely, event tokens are permanent, and can always be referenced in your reporting as a constant identifier.

Recommended placeholder

PlaceholderDescriptionExample
{event}Event tokenbkrfgq
{event_name}Event name as set in AppViewpurchase_100_coins
Note:
If placeholder data is not available, it will be dropped from the callback.

Other recommended placeholders

We also advise that you include the following placeholders in all callback URLs. These placeholders will ensure that you always receive basic information that you can use to identify the app, link, data point, and device to which the rest of your callback data belongs.

PlaceholderDescriptionExample
