Sync note

We sync the Appsflyer attribution events from Data Locker and Webhooks into a common standard table EVENT.

We sync the SKAdNetwork (SKAN) attribution events from Data Locker and Webhooks into the SKAN_EVENT table.

We sync the Cohort analytics aggregate reports from Data Locker into the COHORT_EVENT table.

We sync the following raw reports from Pull API V2 into a common EVENT table.

AD REVENUE RAW DATA
- ORGANIC AD REVENUE
- ATTRIBUTED AD REVENUE
- RETARGETING AD REVENUE
POSTBACKS
- INSTALL POSTBACKS
- IN-APP EVENT POSTBACKS
- RETARGETING IN-APP EVENT POSTBACKS
- RETARGETING CONVERSIONS POSTBACKS
PROTECT360 FRAUD

- REINSTALLS
RETARGETING
- CONVERSIONS (RE_ENGAGEMENTS & RE-ATTRIBUTIONS)

We sync GEO DAILY aggregate reports (both UA and Retargeting) into a common GEO_DAILY table.

Fivetran requires specific fields from the AppsFlyer Push API for schema generation and event de-duplication. When you register the Fivetran-generated Webhook URL for AppsFlyer attribution messages on your AppsFlyer dashboard, select the following fields to prevent data integrity issues:

app_id
appsflyer_id
event_name
event_time
event_value

Data retention

Data Locker events (stored in the AppsFlyer S3 bucket) have a retention policy of 14 days. Push API events have a retention policy of 30 days.

Pull API events have a retention policy of 90 days for raw data. Pull API aggregate data events have a retention policy of 5 years.

The AppsFlyer connector may not capture events in the following scenarios:

The connector sync events from Data Locker, and you have paused the connector for more than 14 days.
The connector syncs events from the Push API, and you have paused the connector for more than 30 days.
