Integration Tutorial


The Mobile AppsFlyer plugin includes a tutorial project in the package that will guide you through the event sheet and JavaScript scripting usage.



  • The tutorial project explains the proper workflow in using the Mobile AppsFlyer plugin.

  • It explains all the basic features, including the actions, conditions and expressions of the Mobile AppsFlyer object.



Track Events


The Mobile AppsFlyer plugin allows you to send in-app events to AppsFlyer analytics. This method allows you to add events dynamically by adding them directly to the application code.

  • AppsFlyer methods internally used include trackEvent() and logEvent().

  • These in-app events help you track how loyal users discover your app, and attribute them to specific campaigns/media-sources.

  • Please take the time define the event/s you want to measure to allow you to track ROI (Return on Investment) and LTV (Lifetime Value).



  • The Mobile AppsFlyer plugin's most important feature is the event tracking.

  • You can track events with parameters. You can also use the predefined event parameters from the official list (5.2.2) below in the Event Parameters documentation section.



  • There is a JS Scripting counterpart of the Track Event action called the Track Event (JS) action.

  • Same as the previous one above, you can track events with parameters and also use the predefined event parameters from the official list (5.2.2) below in the Event Parameters documentation section.

Additional Notes


The Mobile AppsFlyer plugin has a sample In-App Purchases and In-App Subscriptions demo project using the event sheet.



  • The AppsFlyer SDK does not accept number parameter values. Although, in the Construct 3 editor, the Mobile AppsFlyer plugin simplifies the process.

  • You can input numbers in parameters, and it is automatically converted into a string in the background.

  • The AppsFlyer SDK accepts boolean values, but in Construct 3 events, you can input "true" or "false" in string to set the same parameter value.

  • The AppsFlyer SDK also accepts list (array) values, but at the moment the plugin does not support that through solely events. You can however still use the JS Scripting feature to set a list parameter value.



The Mobile AppsFlyer plugin has a sample In-App Purchases and In-App Subscriptions demo project using Construct 3's JavaScript scripting feature.



  • The Mobile AppsFlyer plugin supports Construct 3's JavaScript scripting feature, you can input the parameter values through JavaScript.
