Attributed to a media source

No attribution due to the following:

  • App was installed without using an attribution link. For example, when the user downloads the app from your site or the app store without engaging with an ad first.
  • Click and app launch couldn't be matched. For example, when data is not available due to privacy policy, or install was attributed by a different MMP first.

Attribution of an install or launch due to any of the following:

  • Use of an AppsFlyer attribution link
  • Click and launch are matched by AppsFlyer
  • Claimed by an SRN

 
Attribution info:
  • Uses last-click attribution: Last ad interaction gets credit for the app install or action.
  • Only one media source is credited per install.
