Using the TUNE SDK for Android 4.15.1, we attribute installs via the Google Play App Install Referrer API.
In order for our Measurement API to be able to attribute installs to Google Play with measure session (SDK-less implementation), it requires that:
- Your apps collect the Google Play App Install Referrer attribution information and send it to your servers.
- Your servers include the Google Play App Install Referrer attribution information when notifying TUNE to measure the install.
When the request to measure a session for a new user includes the Google Play App Install Referrer attribution information, our Measurement API will use the value during the attribution process accordingly.
