Singular Integration with Swaarm

This article explains how the Tracking link Template & Postback URL should look like on Singular platform

Updated over a week ago

Similar to other MMPs, If you are not integrated with Singular yet, you need to write to their integration team and ask for the details about the integration process. However, if you are already integrated, then simply ask for the current integration details, meaning the tracking and the postback link configurations, and replace them with the new link populated by Swaarm-supported parameters and macros.

In most cases, you can update the integration by logging into Singular, going to the Partner Configuration page, opening the integration, and re-saving it.

Singular Tracking link

Singular tracking links have the following structure, a[SUBDOMAIN] and the [DNS_ZONE] is "sng.link". Together, the subdomain and the DNS zone make up the domain.

This is an example of a Singular Link without any query parameters:

This is how the Singular tracking URL template should look after adding the Swaarm macros:

Singular Postback Link Templates:

Singular supports Install and event postback separately. The main difference should be in the Swaarm event_id parameter. As an optional, they also support Revenue and Fraud postbacks separately. Here we have suggested some templates that can be used.

Install postback template

https://track.yournetwork.swaarm-clients.com/postback?click_id={cl?Network Name}&gaid={AIFA}&city={CITY}&conversion_timestamp={UTC}&idfa={IDFA}

Event postback template

https://track.yournetwork.swaarm-clients.com/postback?event_id={EVTNAME}&click_id={cl?Network Name}&gaid={AIFA}&city={CITY}&conversion_timestamp={UTC}

Do note: The event will be tracked based on the Singular event name, so it should be placed on the Swaarm event page in Adv.EventType ID section as follows:

Revenue postback template

https://track.yournetwork.swaarm-clients.com/postback?sale_amount={AMOUNT}&event_id={EVTNAME}&click_id={cl?Network Name}&gaid={AIFA}&city={CITY}&conversion_timestamp={UTC}
