Adjust’s Ad Spend API provides accurate, transparent, and granular ad spend data. Adjust maps the cost information using a campaign’s cost_id allowing Report Services to report the ad spend data back to the partner.
Before you begin
To integrate with the Adjust ad spend API you must set up your servers to send a set of mandatory parameters to Adjust through an HTTP POST request to the designated endpoint.
Adjust accepts ad spend data for an engagement up to seven days after it happens. You can send data at any time during this window.
Endpoint
POST https://app.adjust.com/costPOST request
The POST method sends the cost information of a campaign using the cost_id.
The Ad Spend API can’t process capital letters. Make sure to input all parameters in lowercase.
