苹果 Apple Search Ads 全新归因方案

☞点击下载:ASA 上线开发者必看

一、概要

苹果于 2021 年 1 月发布了一个全新的 Apple Search Ads 归因方案。此方案不依赖 IDFA,不受用户隐私政策的约束,在 iOS 14.3 及更高版本的设备上 100% 可归因。

 

以下是该方案的要点和广告主应对措施:

 

注1 排除多渠道投放、特殊异常等原因

注2 预计2021年3月,iOS 14.3及更高版本的覆盖率将超过50%

注3 截至目前,AppsFlyer SDK V6.1.3 、Adjust SDK V4.25.0 及更高版本已提供支持。

 

二、实施说明

The Apple Ads Attribution API is a solution that combines the AdServices framework on client devices and a RESTful API for server-side communication with Apple’s attribution server. The API retrieves attribution data from app downloads and redownloads from Apple Search Ads campaigns. Measure attribution data using specific Apple Search Ads campaign metadata against the performance of Apple Search Ads campaigns.

 

Some developers use a server-side integration with Mobile Measurement Providers (MMPs) for enhanced reporting. Developers also have the option to hand off attribution data to a MMP or manage their attribution data themselves. The following diagram illustrates using the AdServices framework in combination with a RESTful endpoint to retrieve attribution data.

 

这个归因方案,包含两部分:客户端的 AdServices 框架,和从苹果Search Ads归因服务器获取归因数据的 RESTful API。

下图说明了结合使用 AdServices 框架和 RESTful API 来完成归因。

1、Request Token 获取 token

The token that the framework returns is a string and has a 24-hour TTL.

AdServices 框架返回的 token 为字符串类型,并且只有 24 小时有效期。

 

AAAttributionErrorCode 归因错误枚举值

 

AAAttributionErrorCodeInternalError

A token was not provided because an internal error occurred.

没有返回 token,发生了内部错误。

AAAttributionErrorCodeNetworkError

A token was not provided because a network is not available.

没有返回 token,网络不可用。

AAAttributionErrorCodePlatformNotSupported

A token was not provided because the OS platform is unsupported.

没有返回 token,操作系统平台不支持。

 

2、Request attribution 获取归因数据

You can provide the token to a MMP or app developers can use the token to make a POST API call within the 24-hour TTL window to fetch attribution records. Use a single token in the request body:

您可以将 token 提供给 MMP,或者使用该 token 在 24 小时内进行 POST API 调用,以获取归因数据。在请求正文中带上 token:

Response Codes 返回状态码
Response状态码Description描述
200Success. The API found a matching attribution record. The payload returns attribution=true.
If the API doesn’t find a matching attribution record, attribution=false. In this case, the 200 response is an acknowledgement of the receipt of the data request.
成功。API 找到了匹配的归因记录,返回值包含 attribution=true
如果API没有找到对应的归因记录,返回值为 attribution=false。在这种情况,状态码 200 仅表示服务器有数据返回。
400The token is invalid.
token 无效。
404Not found. The API is unable to retrieve the requested attribution record.
Tokens have a TTL of 24 hours. If the POST API call exceeds 24 hours then a 404 response will result.
If your token is valid, a best practice is to initiate retries at intervals of 5 seconds with a max retry of 3 attempts.
没有找到。API 无法获取到请求的归因记录。
Tokens 只有 24 小时的有效期。如果请求超过了 24 小时,苹果会返回 404 状态码。
如果 token 是有效的,一个最佳实践:最多重试 3 次,每次间隔 5 秒钟。
500The server is temporarily down or not reachable. The request may be valid, but you need to retry the request at a later point.
服务器暂时关闭或无法访问。请求可能是有效的,但是你需要选择合适的时间点进行重试。

4、Attribution Payload 归因信息

The API returns two types of attribution records: a standard response and a detailed response. The iOS 14 device level setting Allow Apps to Request to Track (AAtRtT) and details that are available from the attribution payload determine the type of response that the attribution server returns. The AAtRtT setting allows users to opt in or out of allowing apps to request user consent to access app-related data that can be used for both attribution and tracking the user or the device. The following table shows the combination of tracking interactions and expected attribution payload response.

API 返回两种类型的归因数据:标准数据包和详细数据包。 iOS 14 设备级别的设置以及单个 app 的跟踪同意状态,决定了归因数据的类型。下表显示了 6 种组合。

The attribution record is a data dictionary with key value pairs that correspond to your Apple Search Ads campaigns and app downloads on Apple News and Stocks, made from devices running iOS 14 and above.

归因记录是一个包含键值对的数据字典,这些数据与来自 Apple Search Ads(包括 App Store、Apple News 以及 Stocks)的设备(由运行 iOS 14 及更高版本的设备)安装行为相对应。

三、归因数据的存储和使用

 

此部分内容仅考虑ASA单一渠道的广告归因,供开发者参考

 

1、归因数据示意和说明

结构和字段说明如下图所示,详细情况需参考官方API文档。

image-20210126183229234

上图中的 convertionType,官方文档有两处不一致。当前API实际测试,取值为 Download Redownload

已实施过iAd归因方案的开发者,需注意新旧方案的兼容性,下图为两个方案的数据字段的对比:

2、存储示例

假设我们使用一个关系型数据库表来存储的激活设备明细,如下示意

attribution 1表示true,conversion_type 的值为 d 表示Download, r 表示Redownload

3、使用示例
