Importing costs

One way of collecting cost data from ad partners is by importing it from their backend service. In this case, the partner provides a reporting API, from which we can request the cost data. When we have the cost data in justtrack, we update the dashboard to display the most up-to-date costs for the partner.

One important caveat is that ad partners can make adjustments or corrections to the cost data at any time, even days after the install happens. So, if an install occurs on day one, the partner may not settle on the final cost calculation until day two or three. To account for this delay, we always request the last three days' worth of cost data and correct the dashboard accordingly.

We go through the process of importing cost data every three hours to provide you with somewhat fresh cost data. In addition to this, some ad partners provide real-time cost data through another mechanism: global conversion events. Read our documentation on real-time costs to learn more.
