Postbacking Conversions To SiteScout? (9)

Postbacking Conversions To SiteScout?

Is there a way to postback conversions to SiteScout from Voluum, similar to Decisive?
Using pixels on advertisers thank you page is probably not possible.
I'm having the same problem in POF. Currently I only see my CVR's on my affiliate network and on Voluum.
Any idea?

For PoF you can use PoFPro.

For SiteScout there is a Postback URL in the tracking > get tags part. I have never used S2S tracking on SiteScount but this document (http://www.sitescout.com/support/tracking-macros/) suggests it might be the {clickMacro} token that provides the data to be passed back in the postback URL.

Thanks for the answer.
I read this document all of yesterday trying to figure it out.
The problem is that it is script that they are using for it. What is the postback url? I can't seem to find it.
all I understand is that i need to set the externalid on Voluum to {clickMacro} but I can't seem to find the postback url.

The postback URL you find in SiteScout where you make conversion tracking tags.

I don't know where you do it in the new SiteScout, but if you go back to legacy it is here:



Then hit create, make an offer/conversion item, then click get tags:



And there's the postback for that specific offer/conversion item you created.

So according to this my url at Voluum for sitescout will be:
http://clickserv.sitescout.com/conv/00b5efba7e5fde79?pb={externalid} ?

Yes, looks correct.

Yep that's right. You need a different postback url for each offer

Which token do I need to use?
Is it {clickMacro} as suggested on this page:
http://www.sitescout.com/support/tra...cro-ad-servers
Or would you say it will be this one {POSTBACKID} like on this page:
http://www.sitescout.com/support/con...king/#postback

Confusing stuff

I would go for {POSTBACKID}

You could always make two ads, use each token, see what the values look like and see which of the two end up correctly passing conversion data to SiteScout.
