Configure postbacks
Enabling Perform[cb] does not automatically activate any postbacks. Configure the postbacks you need on the Postbacks tab.
To add postbacks for additional events or to customize behavior, follow Configure postbacks in the general Ad Partner Integration Guide.
Create a Branch Ad Link
Create a Branch Ad Link to use in your Perform[cb] campaigns. Branch uses the link to attribute clicks and deep link users into your app.
Follow Create a Branch Ad Link in the general Ad Partner Integration Guide.
Verify your data
After your integration is connected and events are flowing, you can verify data is reaching Branch:
-
In Branch Liveview: confirm that events from your app appear in real time. This is the fastest way to confirm SDK events are firing.
-
In Branch Analysis dashboards: review attributed installs and events where
Ad Partner Name = Perform[cb]. -
In Perform[cb]: confirm that forwarded events are appearing in your Perform[cb] attribution reporting.
