4. Set up the tracking on the TS side.

5. Set up a postback URL in RedTrack.
Go to Campaign settings (created within step 2) → scroll down to S2S Postback for Pushground → press Add → check if all the needed values for the parameters are in place → Save changes to the campaign:
▸ If you changed the Postback URL in the Traffic channel (added/removed some parameters to it), remember to manually update the link in Campaign settings as well, as it won’t be generated correctly automatically.
▸ Some Traffic channels require you to edit the Postback with specific parameters for each Campaign (e.g., the goal for Exoclick or ap_key for Go2Mobi). If the field remains blank or something like “REPLACE” is stated, that means you need to define the Postback conditions manually.
