Determine Whether to Adjust or Remove Spend
-
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.
-
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.
