Set up X (formerly Twitter)

As an X (formerly Twitter) Mobile App Conversion Tracking Partner (MACT), Adjust can measure your performance marketing efforts on X (formerly Twitter).

X (formerly Twitter) ads are organized by X (formerly Twitter) handles and X (formerly Twitter) Ads accounts. While each X (formerly Twitter) handle is directly associated with a specific Ads account, its access can be extended to include additional ad accounts within your X (formerly Twitter) interface. Therefore, apps in Adjust may be associated with various Ads accounts and any number of handles. All X (formerly Twitter) handles and X (formerly Twitter) Ads accounts can be precisely configured in managing data visibility and sharing.

When making changes to your X (formerly Twitter) account setup, we always recommend pausing your X (formerly Twitter) campaigns, since the MACT API requires a complete re-sync of all modified account data.

Important:
X (formerly Twitter) will only integrate with one MMP at a time. If you migrated from another MMP to Adjust, and the X (formerly Twitter) integration isn’t working, make sure you’ve disabled your X (formerly Twitter) integration with your previous MMP. If you’ve already closed your account with the previous MMP, contact them to confirm the X (formerly Twitter) integration is disabled.

    • Corresponding links are created automatically and appear on the network details page.

Receive X (formerly Twitter) attribution data via raw export data

Adjust always reports X (formerly Twitter) attributions. By default, raw data export displays X (formerly Twitter) attributions as Organic. To receive X (formerly Twitter) attribution data via raw data export, follow these steps.

  1. Join the X (formerly Twitter) Advanced Mobile Measurement (AMM) Program. Sign into your X (formerly Twitter) account and contact X Ads Support. You may need to contact your X (formerly Twitter) Account Manager to complete this process.

  2. Notify Adjust that you have joined the AMM program. Contact your Adjust Technical Account Manager or support@adjust.com for them to complete the process.

Once Adjust has completed the process, you can see X (formerly Twitter) attributions for eligible users in your raw data export.

Users who have opted out of additional information sharing with business partners on their X (formerly Twitter) accounts, or who are otherwise ineligible for information sharing, appear as Organic in your raw data export.

In order for Adjust to confirm that you are active in the AMM Program, you must currently be running X (formerly Twitter) campaigns. You may need to confirm with your X (formerly Twitter) Account Manager.
