Set up POLARIS Signal

POLARIS Signal is an analytics partner integrated with Adjust. Our integration lets POLARIS Signal receive data measured in Adjust through automated callbacks. Use this data with the partners' tools for analytics and insights.

In this article, learn how to set up measurement with POLARIS Signal for your app. This includes activating the integration and choosing what data Adjust can share with POLARIS Signal.

Before you begin

Requirements

• Admin, Editor, or Custom Editor permissions in Adjust.
• Adjust SDK v4.0.0 and later to map SDK parameters to POLARIS Signal parameters. Follow the guides linked below to use this feature.

iOS | Android | Windows | Unity | React Native | Flutter | Adobe Air | Cordova | Marmalade | Xamarin | Cocos2d-x | Titanium | Corona

Select POLARIS Signal and your app in Campaign Lab

1. Under Campaign Lab, select Partners.
2. Select New partner > POLARIS Signal. 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 POLARIS Signal.
4. Select Next.

Enable data sharing

Enable data sharing to activate the integration with POLARIS Signal. To enable data sharing:

1. Turn on Enabled

Once you enable data sharing with POLARIS Signal, Adjust automatically sends POLARIS Signal the following data, by default:

• install
• session
• uninstall
• reinstall
• reattribution
• event
• ad revenue

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 POLARIS Signal by default:

• install
• session
• uninstall
• reinstall
• reattribution
• event
• ad revenue

Send additional data

Choose the amount and type of data that you want to share with POLARIS Signal through callbacks. POLARIS Signal may use this information to optimize performance.

To send additional data, you can review and customize the following:

Ad revenue (from ad views)

Ad revenue sharing lets POLARIS Signal receive user ad revenue data. This lets POLARIS Signal use ad revenue data to optimize your user targeting and campaigns.

To share ad revenue to POLARIS Signal, select one or more Ad Revenue Sources.

• If you leave this field empty, we send ad revenue data from all integrated mediation sources.

Sessions

Adjust does not automatically send session callbacks due to the high volume of sessions. Sharing sessions means POLARIS Signal will receive your app’s session activity.

Uninstalls or reinstalls

Sharing uninstalls or reinstalls lets POLARIS Signal receive your app’s uninstall and/or reinstall data measured by Adjust.

In-app revenue (from in-app purchases)

Sharing in-app revenue lets POLARIS Signal 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 POLARIS Signal can receive. Data for unmapped events is not shared with POLARIS Signal.

Map individual events

If you have a multi-platform app, you can choose to share different events per platform with POLARIS Signal. 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 POLARIS Signal.

1. Select Map event.
2. In the Adjust event list, choose the Adjust event that you want to share with POLARIS Signal.
3. Under Partner event, you need to select the POLARIS Signal 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 POLARIS Signal will receive in-app event data for each of your linked events.

Map all events

If POLARIS Signal supports mapping all events automatically, under Map events, select Map all events. This saves time in mapping individual events.

Now POLARIS Signal will receive in-app event data for all your linked events.

Enable POLARIS Signal for your app

In the Setup review screen, you can review your choices. You can also go back and make changes to:

• Your selected app
• Data sharing options

Select Enable partner to enable POLARIS Signal for your app. Analytics partners don't work with links for campaigns. Once enabled, our integration sends attribution and in-app event data via automated callbacks.
