AppsFlyer Event Streaming

Amplitude CDP's AppsFlyer streaming integration enables you to forward your Amplitude events straight to AppsFlyer with just a few clicks.

Setup¶

Prerequisites¶

To configure streaming from Amplitude to AppsFlyer, you need the following information from AppsFlyer.

• AppsFlyer Dev Key: The AppsFlyer Dev Key used for authentication. See the AppsFlyer documentation for help locating your Dev Key.
• AppsFlyer App ID: The AppsFlyer identifier for your app. It's located in AppsFlyer App Settings and can also be retrieved from the URL in your AppsFlyer Dashboards.

Create a new sync¶

1. In Amplitude Data, click Catalog and select the Destinations tab.
2. In the Event Streaming section, click AppsFlyer.
3. Enter a sync name, then click Create Sync.

Enter credentials¶

1. Select your AppsFlyer Dev Key.
2. Enter your AppsFlyer App ID.

Configure event forwarding¶

Under Send Events, make sure the toggle is enabled ("Events are sent to AppsFlyer") if you want to stream events to AppsFlyer. When enabled, events are automatically forwarded to AppsFlyer when they're ingested in Amplitude. Events aren't sent on a schedule or on-demand using this integration.

1. In Select and filter events choose which events you want to send. Choose only the events you need in AppsFlyer. Transformed events aren't supported.

   Events for non-AppsFlyer users cannot be streamed

   AppsFlyer requires that all events have an AppsFlyer ID present. If you have selected any events to send to AppsFlyer that may not have an AppsFlyer ID, add a filter to send only events where the AppsFlyer ID is present. Otherwise, your delivery metrics may be affected.

   

2. In Map properties to destination: Transformed user properties aren't supported.

   1. Select an Amplitude user property that corresponds to your AppsFlyer ID, from the left dropdown.
   2. (recommended) Map an Amplitude user property to AppsFlyer Customer User ID.
      1. Select an Amplitude user property that corresponds to your AppsFlyer Customer User ID, from the left dropdown.
      2. Select Customer User ID, from the corresponding right dropdown.
   3. (recommended) Map Amplitude user properties to AppsFlyer device identifiers. It's recommended that you map Amplitude properties to as many of AppsFlyer GAID, Amazon Advertising ID, OAID, and IMEI (for Android) or IDFA and IDFV (for Apple) as possible.
      1. Select an Amplitude user property that corresponds to an AppsFlyer device identifier, from the left dropdown.
      2. Select the AppsFlyer device identifier, from the corresponding right dropdown.
   4. (optional) Map other Amplitude user properties to AppsFlyer properties.
      1. Select an Amplitude user property that corresponds to an AppsFlyer property, from the left dropdown.
      2. Select the AppsFlyer property, from the corresponding right dropdown.

   See the full list of AppsFlyer properties that are supported by Amplitude.

3. (optional) In Select additional properties, select any more event and user properties you want to send to AppsFlyer. If you don't select any properties here, Amplitude doesn't send any. These properties are sent to AppsFlyer as AppsFlyer event values. Transformed event properties and transformed user properties aren't supported.

Enable sync¶

When satisfied with your configuration, at the top of the page toggle the Status to "Enabled" and click Save.
