Cost Integration Setup

Follow the steps below to enable cost integration with Persona.ly.

Submit account information to Airbridge

Submit your Persona.ly information to Airbridge and enable cost integration.
  1. Request the Persona.ly Advertiser ID and API Key from Persona.ly.
  2. Select the [Cost Integration] tab. Switch on the Persona.ly Cost Integration toggle and click + Add an account.
  3. Enter your Persona.ly Advertiser ID and API Key. Click Done.
  4. Once the account information is submitted correctly, the Persona.ly account is added to the integrated account list. The status will show “Waiting” for up to 4 hours from the time the account is added and will change to “Success” when data is pulled for the first time.

Integration management

Turn off the toggle to pause the integration. Airbridge stops collecting cost data once the integration is paused.Any data collected before the pause remains available in Airbridge reports.Airbridge retains the credentials of the integrated account, so you can resume the integration at any time by turning the toggle on. However, deleting the integrated account removes these credentials.
Select the account from the integrated account list and click Delete to remove the account. To re-integrate the account after deletion, set up the integration from the beginning.

Integration status

Upon submitting your ad account information to Airbridge, you can check if the integration is running. The status may show “Waiting” even when the account is successfully added if no data has been pulled yet.

Cost Integration Setup

Read the following information before enabling cost integration with Persona.ly.
Airbridge pulls the cost data from the past 7 days, every 4 hours, 6 times a day starting at 3:00 PM (UTC). As the updates are not real-time, there may be data discrepancies between Airbridge and Persona.ly, depending on the time of reporting.In addition, Persona.ly calibrates some data that has been collected in the last 4 to 5 days. This may also result in data discrepancies between Airbridge and Persona.ly, depending on the time of reporting.Contact your Persona.ly representative regarding data discrepancies in the following metrics:
  • Clicks(Channel)
  • Impressions(Channel)
The Cost (Channel) metric, which shows your ad spend reported by the ad channel, displays value only when used with specific GroupBys.Below are the GroupBys that can be used in the Actuals Report to view data with the metric:
  • Channel
  • Campaign
  • Ad Creative
Depending on the data reported, the metric may not display any value even if you use the GroupBys above.
The data pulled via cost integration is provided by the app time zone and app standard currency set within Airbridge.To minimize data discrepancy, align your app’s currency and time zone settings in your Airbridge dashboard and your ad channel’s dashboard.
