sendCampaign

The sendCampaign() method tracks online campaigns that bring traffic to your mobile app. To track a campaign, you need to add campaign parameters to each campaign link and then use this method to pass that data. Campaign data is collected with the first tracked screen event.

Syntax

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)app openURL:(NSURL *)url options:(NSDictionary *)options {
    return [[PiwikTracker sharedInstance] sendCampaign:url.absoluteString];
}

Parameters

campaignURL (string, required)

The URL you used in your campaign to bring traffic to your mobile app. Valid formats: HTTPS, HTTP and FTP. Example: http://example.com?pk_campaign=Summer_Promo&pk_keyword=banking_app.

Note: You can tag campaigns manually or use our Piwik PRO URL builder. For now, only the pk_campaign and pk_keyword parameters work on SDKs, so don't use any other parameters.

Examples

To pass campaign data from the campaign link http://example.com?pk_campaign=Summer_Promo&pk_keyword=banking_app:

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)app openURL:(NSURL *)url options:(NSDictionary *)options {  
    return [[PiwikTracker sharedInstance] sendCampaign:url.absoluteString];  
}

Notes

• For now, only the pk_campaign and pk_keyword parameters work on SDKs, so don't use any other parameters.
• Piwik PRO recognizes the pk_campaign and pk_keyword parameters by default. But if you are having problems tracking your campaigns, make sure these parameters are added in Administration > Sites & apps > Data collection > Campaigns > Campaign parameters. Read more
