  4. Set the attribution window

    Open AppView → All apps → your app → Attribution settings. Set the click-based attribution window to 30 days. Confirm other changes with your campaign manager and check that app-level and link-level settings agree.

  5. Copy the iOS App Token

    In AppView → All apps, copy the iOS app's full 12-character value from the App token column. Do not use the token for an Android version.

  6. Copy the Apple Ads Tracker Token

    Open Campaign Lab → Partners → Apple → your app → Apple Ads link details. Copy only the token after https://app.adjust.com/ and before ?. It contains at least 6 letters or digits. Exclude the URL prefix, query parameters and spaces.

  7. Return and review setup

    After saving permission, link, priority and attribution-window settings, return to setup and enter both tokens. Confirm the steps you completed. Tokens identify the app and link; they do not prove that data is arriving.

  8. Check installation data and SDK setup

    With the required SDK and iOS framework integrated, a tracking link does not need to be created in advance. First-campaign install data may take several hours to appear. Ask your Adjust account manager about SDK or data-display issues.

Confirm completion and next steps

What to check

  • The user, link, partner priority and attribution window settings are saved as instructed.
  • The iOS App Token and Apple Ads Tracker Token are copied into setup; they do not prove incoming data.

What happens next

Return to the original setup tab to enter or review your actual choices. Operations verifies provider access and data separately; reading this guide does not submit or activate your application.
