This guide will show you how to set up tracking for the following AppLovin metrics in Northbeam: Northbeam recently partnered with AppLovin to bring you a seamless integration. Once connected, Northbeam pulls AppLovin spend and reporting into your dashboard and enables AppLovin attribution alongside your other channels.

Setup steps

  1. Report API Key
  2. Find Your Account ID
  3. Add Your Credentials in Northbeam
  4. Add Northbeam UTMs
  5. Remove Custom Spend (Optional)

Step 5: Remove Custom Spend (Optional)

If you were previously uploading AppLovin spend into Northbeam using a custom spend sheet or API, you may need to adjust or remove these entries to avoid duplication after the integration is complete.

Determine Whether to Adjust or Remove Spend

  1. Identify the Source of Custom Spend:
    • Refer to Step 1: Add Spend to review your custom spend sheet or API configuration.
    • Determine if the uploaded spend overlaps with the data now being pulled through the AppLovin integration.
  2. Adjust Spend if Needed:
    • If there is overlap, adjust or remove the relevant entries from the custom spend sheet or API configuration to prevent double-counting.
    • If there is no overlap, you can leave the existing entries as they are.
ImportantDuplicate spend entries in Northbeam may result in incorrect reporting and data discrepancies.
