Integration with Advertiser
Step 1. Advertiser Tracking URL
Once a tracking link is received from the Advertiser, it should be placed in the 'Offers' section -> 'Offers edit' page -> 'Tracking' tab -> 'Tracking URL' field:
Advertiser gives their link with the parameters of the tracking platform they use; after all, you should add Affise macros to the link. To get an accurate list of Advertiser’s parameters, you should contact the Advertiser directly.
Affise macros for tracking URL of Advertiser can be found in the same section ('Offers' section - > 'Offer edit' page - > 'Tracking' tab - > ‘Tracking URL’ field - > ‘Show macro’ button).
Affise macros for offer's tracking links:
| {clickid} or {click_id} | clickid_param_info: a required macro |
| {pid} | partner ID |
| {ip} | IP-address |
| {geo} | Country code (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2) |
| {sub1} - {sub8} | SubId #1 - SubId #8 |
| {deeplink} | Deeplink |
| {device_ua} | Device User Agent |
| {offer_id} | Offer ID |
| {rand} | Unique number |
| {time} | Unix time |
| {city} | City |
| {time_petty} | Time of click committing in format h:i:s |
| {date_only} | Date of click committing in format y-m-d |
| {affiliate_name} | Company name of affiliate |
| {advertiser_id} | OD of Advertiser |
| {offer_name} | Offer Title |
| {referrer} | Click referrer |
Step 2. Affise Postback URL
Postback generated in Affise system should be placed in the tracking system of Advertiser.
Affise postback template can be found in the 'Offers' section - > 'Offer edit' page - > 'Postbacks' tab - > ‘Integration pixels’ - > ‘S2S’ (Postbacks):
Or in ‘Advertisers’ section - > ‘Edit Advertiser’ - > ‘S2S’ (Postback):
Right now we support the following samples of the default Admin domain, which is used in Affise Postback URL:
- http://offers.rocketcompany.affise.com - will be supported until the end of the 2020 year!!!
- http://offers-rocketcompany.affise.com
- https://offers-rocketcompany.affise.com
The postback should have Affise parameters and advertiser’s macros that should be added to them accordingly.
The list of Affise parameters for a postback is as follows:
| clickid | a required parameter: should be replaced with advertiser’s macro for click id |
| action_id | unique conversion ID in the advertiser's system |
| goal | goal number or goal value |
| sum | conversion revenue |
| ip | IP address of visitor who made a request (partially hidden by GDPR policy) |
| status |
request status*: Approved - 1 Pending - 2 Declined - 3 Not found - 4 Hold - 5 |
| referrer | referrer (additional information on traffic and deeplinks) |
| comment | comment |
| secure | the hash password generated on offer, advertiser level |
| custom_field1 - custom_field7 | custom field 1 - custom field 7 |

To get an accurate list of Advertiser’s macros for the postback, you should contact Advertiser directly.
Macros are framed with brackets; the type of brackets of the advertiser’s macros depends on the tracking system.
Affise macros: {}
Other tracking solutions: {}, [ ], [[ ]], # #, % % and etc.
In the majority of cases we pass info and get it back through the same parameters & macros:
Tracking link: &aff_sub={clickid}
Postback URL: clickid={aff_sub}
& is used to add different parameters to the link.
