Send preinstalled app activity

You can use the Adjust SDK to record activity from apps that came preinstalled on a user’s device. This enables you to send information from users who didn’t download your app from a campaign.

Default link token

Configuring a default link token enables you to attribute all preinstalls to a predefined Adjust link. Adjust records all information against this token until the attribution source changes. To set this up:

1. Create a new campaign link in Campaign Lab.

   1
   https://app.adjust.com/{token}

2. Copy this token and pass it as an argument to the setDefaultTracker method of your config object.

   1
   var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment);
   2
   adjustConfig.setDefaultTracker("{TrackerToken}");
   3
   Adjust.create(adjustConfig);

3. Build and run your app. If you have logging enabled, you should see a message in your log

   1
   Default tracker: 'abc123'.
