Select Baidu Native (百度信息流) and your app in Campaign Lab

  1. Under Campaign Lab, select Partners.
  2. Select New partner > Baidu Native (百度信息流). Select Next to move to the next screen.
  3. In the App selection screen, choose the app for which you want to create the link, and enable the integration to share data with Baidu Native (百度信息流).

Enable data sharing

Enable data sharing to activate the integration with Baidu Native (百度信息流). To enable data sharing:

  1. Enter your AKEY.

Once you enable data sharing with Baidu Native (百度信息流), Adjust automatically sends Baidu Native (百度信息流) the following data, by default:

  • installs (attributed only)
  • event (attributed only)

Set your data sharing options

If you’re working with a multi-platform app with data sharing enabled for multiple platforms, you can:

  1. Separate data sharing options at the platform-level by selecting Use platform-specific settings.
  2. Set the same data sharing settings for multiple platforms by selecting Use global settings.

Now, under What will be shared by default?, review the activities that Adjust shares with Baidu Native (百度信息流) by default.

  • installs (attributed only)
  • event (attributed only)

Send additional data

Choose the amount and type of data that you want to share with Baidu Native (百度信息流) through callbacks. Baidu Native (百度信息流) may use this information to optimize performance.

In-app revenue (from in-app purchases)

Sharing in-app revenue lets Baidu Native (百度信息流) receive revenue amounts along with your revenue event data. You need to map events that generate revenue to share this data.

Map events

Map events that you want to share to the values that Baidu Native (百度信息流) can receive. Data for unmapped events is not shared with Baidu Native (百度信息流).

Map individual events

If you have a multi-platform app, you can choose to share different events per platform with Baidu Native (百度信息流). This lets you:

  • Set individual events to manage campaign strategies for each platform.
  • Customize data sharing per platform.

Under Map events, follow these steps to choose the in-app events you want to directly send to Baidu Native (百度信息流).

  1. Select Map event.
  2. In the Adjust event list, choose the Adjust event that you want to share with Baidu Native (百度信息流).
  3. Under Partner event, you need to select the Baidu Native (百度信息流) event that corresponds to the Adjust event.
    1. For single platform apps and multi-platform apps with data sharing enabled for a single platform only, you map events for that platform only. For multi-platform apps with data sharing enabled for multiple platforms, you can:
      • Select Use platform-specific mapping to map separate events at the platform-level or to not map events for certain platforms.
      • Select Use global mapping to map the same events for all platforms.
    2. In the Partner event list, choose or enter a custom event name, that you want to map the Adjust event to.
  4. Select Apply.

Now Baidu Native (百度信息流) will receive in-app event data for each of your linked events.

Map all events

If Baidu Native (百度信息流) supports mapping all events automatically, under Map events, select Map all events. This saves time in mapping individual events.

Now Baidu Native (百度信息流) will receive in-app event data for all your linked events.
