Conversion value null
When you see a conversion value sent as null
in a postback, it means that it has not met the privacy threshold set by Apple. This threshold determines that your app must meet a certain number of daily installs per campaign in order to share a detailed conversion value. Apple hasn’t defined the required number of the daily install numbers for this threshold.
Conversion value window
Due to the way SKAdNetwork works, it is not possible to know exactly when the install notification will be sent to the network. Since each conversion value update extends the timer for another 24 hours, it can potentially take a long time for a network to receive a postback from SKAdNetwork if the user is very active in the app.
With the conversion value window you can set a defined time period after an app install, or reinstall, in which Adjust may update conversion values based on user activity. This helps you to better control when to expect the SKAdNetwork install postback. You can only set the conversion value window on a per-app basis, not a per-campaign basis.
For example: If you set the window to 48 hours, but a user does not trigger any event after install, the measurement can stop after 24 hours.
CV configuration sharing with partners
Conversion value configurations are not shared with network partners automatically. Network partners receive an install postback from SKAdNetwork that contains the conversion value. Adjust unpacks these conversion values using the configuration you have defined.
You can share your conversion value configuration with Facebook. When you do this, Facebook will unpack the conversion values on their side. To set this up, you need to share your Connection URL with Facebook.
