What gets imported
The connector imports attribution and aggregated performance data at daily granularity in each app’s native currency, across the Conversion, Ad Spend, Revenue, and SKAdNetwork metric categories. App Tracking Transparency status splits are available as separate metric variants, and SKAdNetwork postbacks are exposed as separate metrics where available. Attribution-window logic is governed by the app’s own settings in Adjust. For the complete list of metrics, breakdowns, cohort metrics, and SKAdNetwork fields, see the Adjust data reference.Troubleshooting
