2. Configure Postbacks

Enabling Aura from Unity will automatically enable the following postbacks:

• ADD_TO_CART
• SHARE

You can configure these postbacks or add more under the Postback Config tab.

4. Set up Cost Data

🚧

Beta for Non-SANs

Cost Data for Non-Self-Attributing Networks (Non-SANs) is a feature currently in Beta; be aware that there may be unexpected bugs/behaviors until the full release.

To set up cost ingestion for Aura from Unity, you will need to authenticate using your Authentication Token. Please reach out to your Aura from Unity account manager if you have trouble finding these values.

Enter your Authentication Token, and click Save Authentication

5. Create Branch Ad Link

Next, you'll need to create a Branch Ad Link for your Aura from Unity campaigns in order for Branch to properly attribute conversions.

The Branch Ad Link you create will be placed in your Aura from Unity campaign.

6. Verify Data in Branch

After launching your Aura campaigns, and conversions begin to happen, you'll want to verify data is being sent from Branch to Aura. You can look at the Branch Dashboard's Liveview Webhook Records and apply the following filter:

Once applied, data should flow through the Liveview, and you can see the data being sent to Aura from Unity from Branch.

Verifying Cost Data

To verify that cost data is flowing into Branch, you need to have the following:

• Completed all implementation steps above
• You need to already be live with campaigns running for the ad network
• Wait 24 hours for data to be pulled in
