How-To: Pull App Platform Data

Here’s how to integrate mobile app performance data using publisher templates. This setup automates reporting by pulling from the publisher API into Alli Cloud Storage and syncing it into a datasource.

To get started, you will need credentials. Reach out to your onboarding team or the PMG contact managing the account.

1. Create a New Workflow

Go to Actions → Workflows and create a new Workflow.

➕ Add Publisher Connector

  • Search for your publisher’s template (e.g. Applovin, Liftoff, etc.)

  • Fill in the required credentials

  • (Optional) Choose a start and end date

⚠️ NOTE: Most publishers only support the last 30–45 days. Check platform limits.

➕ Add Force Sync Task

  • Draw a connection between the Platform Connector and this Force Sync
