Verify the full setup is healthy

Confirm each piece of the setup is working:
  • In the Upstack dashboard, Event Destinations shows your AppLovin destination as Healthy (green).
  • In the AppLovin Axon Dashboard, the Events section shows recent events arriving via the Conversions API.
  • Events appear within 5-10 minutes of storefront activity.
If anything is unhealthy, check the corresponding help guide above for troubleshooting steps.

What to expect after setup

Event delivery timeline

  • Events start appearing in the AppLovin Dashboard within 5-10 minutes of storefront activity.
  • Match quality improves as more identified customers (with email/phone at checkout) convert.
  • The dedupe_id ensures browser Pixel events and server-side CAPI events are not double-counted.

Reporting differences

  • Your AppLovin campaign performance will likely improve after a few days as the algorithm receives more complete conversion data.
  • Conversion volume may temporarily fluctuate during the first 48 hours as AppLovin’s deduplication logic adjusts to receiving both pixel and CAPI events.
Important: AppLovin’s batch API drops the entire batch if any single event is invalid. Ensure all events include a dedupe_id and at least one user identifier (aleid, axwrt, client_id, email, phone, or user_id).
