Partner Postback Report

Learn how to monitor, troubleshoot, and debug partner postback tracking in Everflow, including step-by-step guides for successful conversion tracking with affiliate networks, ad platforms, and marketing partners.

Overview

When running traffic with Partners (like Meta or affiliates), you need to tell their systems when conversions happen. This is often done through a postback URL - a special URL provided by your Partner that Everflow calls to notify them about conversions.

Here's how it works:

  1. Your Partner sends traffic using their tracking link with their Click ID
    https://yoursite.com/offer?click_id=123abc
  2. When a conversion happens, Everflow needs to tell your Partner about it using their postback URL
    https://partner-system.com/conversion?click_id=123abc

The Partner Postback Report shows you if these notification URLs are working properly.

This is crucial because:

  • Failed postbacks mean Partners can't see their Conversions
  • Ad platforms need Conversion data to optimize campaigns
  • Affiliates need Conversion data to bill you correctly

Key Features

  • Success/Failure status of each postback delivery
  • Payload preview showing what data was sent
  • Debug Info showing server responses

How to Access the Partner Postback Report

Click on the hamburger menu in the top left corner of your Everflow dashboard. Go to the Reporting section. Select Partner Postback from the list of reports.

A Real-Life Example

Let's say you're working with an affiliate network that uses a Global Partner Postback:

Checking the Partner Postback Report, you notice: Multiple failed postbacks for your top affiliate network Debug Info reveals: Postback Url: https://networkname.com/postback?clickid={sub1} Status: 400 Headers: Content-Type: [application/json] Return: {"status":2} Investigating the Payload and Debug Info: Status 400 indicates a bad request Their system isn't accepting the Click ID format The Global postback is failing for all conversions Take action: Contact the Partner to verify their correct postback URL format Confirm with the Partner that the Partner Tracking Link is configured properly in their platform (i.e. their click id is passed in the correct parameter - sub1 in the above example) Update the postback URL to their specification, if needed Test with a new conversion

This shows how the Partner Postback Report's Debug Info helps you identify formatting issues in your postback configuration, especially important for Global postbacks since they affect all conversions for that Partner.

Best Practices

Keep a close eye on the status column to quickly spot any postback failures. When you do find errors, use the debug info to understand exactly what went wrong.

Make sure your partners' postback URLs are always up to date, and whenever you make any changes, test them right away to ensure everything's working properly.
