Backfill Data for App Platform Apps

If you need to manually pull data, here’s how to run and backfill apps:

✅ Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Go to the App Marketplace

   • Navigate to Marketplace → My Apps

   • Use the search bar to find the partner app (e.g., Smadex, Kochava, etc.)

2. Click into the App

   • You’ll land on a screen showing previous executions. Click on Edit App in the top-right corner.

3. Backfill Dates

   • Add a custom start_date and end_date in YYYY-MM-DD format.

   • Or leave dates blank to just pull for yesterday (the automated default).

4. Click “Save & Run”

   • Once you’ve entered the correct date(s), click Save & Run. The data will be automatically sent to the correct datasource.

   • You will need to wait for the datasource to load after each execution. This can take up to 10-20 minutes, or you can press the “Load Data” button to speed things up.

⚠️ Important: Be sure to clear the dates and set them back to default after backfilling so that future runs don’t reuse those values.

🚧 If the App Fails:

• Try running it again or try with a shorter date range (e.g, 2–3 days).

• Click into the Execution Log and scroll to the bottom of Output to see the error message.

• Common errors include:

  • inMobi: 501 Service Unavailable due to failed API connection

  • Moloco: The provided token has expired after >1 hour runtime
