App Attribution, Measurement, and Audience Insights
App Attribution, Measurement, and Audience Insights
Open Measurement SDK
Open Measurement SDK
The Open Measurement (OM) SDK, developed by the IAB Tech Lab, is integrated into DV360 to enable standardized third-party viewability and verification measurement for in-app ads. It allows advertisers to assess whether an ad was actually seen (viewability) and verify its delivery context without requiring multiple vendor-specific SDKs. Advertisers can set viewability thresholds (e.g., 70% viewable for 2 seconds) and prioritize OM SDK-enabled inventory at the line-item or advertiser level. This ties directly to OM SDK’s role in providing standardized signals.
In-App Events
In-App Events
DV360 links with Google’s Firebase for seamless tracking of app installs and in-app events on Android and iOS. No additional app code changes are needed post-setup, making it user-friendly. For advertisers needing custom data, DV360 supports server-to-server (S2S) tracking with third-party tools with some additional technical setup.
Attribution Modelling
Attribution Modelling
Understanding which ads drive conversions in apps is trickier due to fragmented ecosystems and limited cookie availability. DV360 uses Floodlight tags for in-app conversion tracking, offering attribution models like data-driven attribution (via Campaign Manager 360 integration). This leverages machine learning to assign value to touchpoints across app and web. In-app environments often lack persistent identifiers, so DV360 may model conversions using historical data when device IDs are unavailable.
Audience Targeting & Reach
Audience Targeting & Reach
App tracking enables building audience lists based on in-app behavior, crucial for retargeting and optimization in DV360. It uses Google’s ecosystem (e.g., Google Play data) and third-party audience segments to target users. In-app events tracked via Firebase or Floodlight feed into audience creation. The Insights module reports unique reach metrics, distinguishing app-based impressions from other channels, in accordance to measurability of the inventory (e.g., OM SDK-enabled).
Apple AdAttributionKit
Apple AdAttributionKit
Introduced in iOS 18 (late 2024), AdAttributionKit replaces SKAdNetwork as Apple’s privacy-centric attribution solution, impacting DV360’s iOS app tracking. It offers more granular, aggregated reporting (e.g., conversion values, click data) than SKAdNetwork while preserving user privacy via on-device processing and delayed reporting. Furthermore, AdAttributionKit supports post-install event tracking beyond just installs. DV360 adapts to AdAttributionKit for iOS campaigns, enhancing conversion insights without IDFA. Exact implementation details may evolve. Ultimately, the new evolution of Apple's framework balances privacy and measurement better than SKAdNetwork, providing aggregated, not user-level data.
