Sample CSV File
🚧 Case Sensitivity
Please be aware that data in columns with a type defined as ‘string’ is case-sensitive. Note that Airbridge records mobile OS names as ‘Android’ and ‘iOS’. When uploading your data, it’s essential to use ‘Android’ and ‘iOS’ for OS names. Failure to do so may result in separate rows in the dashboard when data is grouped by results. Please adhere to this naming convention for consistency and accurate data representation.Overwrite Previously Ingested Metric Data
Previously ingested metric data can be overwritten by using CSV files that contain data with the identical key of data previously ingested. The key is formed from the ‘date’, ‘channel’, and ‘event_category’ fields. If the keys match, data ingested last overwrites data previously ingested.[Example A]
1. 2022-08-03: Upload for date, channel, campaign and ad_group.
2. 2022-08-04: Upload for date, channel and campaign.
3. Result: Spend data from ‘2022-08-03’ was overwritten by data from ‘2022-08-04’ because ‘2022-08-04’ was last ingested and the identical key is the same. (ad group is overwritten null)
[Example B]
1. 2022-08-03: Upload for date, channel and campaign.
2. 2022-08-04: Upload for date, channel, campaign and ad_group.
3. Result: Based on the values ‘date’, ‘channel’, and ‘campaign’, the data was overwritten by ‘2022-08-04’ (ad_group value are also updated.)
[Example C]
1. 2022-08-03: Upload for date, channel, campaign and ad_group.
2. 2022-08-04: Upload for date, channel, campaign and ad_group.
3. Result: Based on the values ‘date’, ‘channel’, and ‘campaign’, the data was overwritten by ‘2022-08-04’
