Apsalar
started as a free analytics service that can perform Facebook advertisement attribution. It recently switched to a fee based model. It's a popular service,
since you can measure the return on investment for Facebook Mobile Ads, which only a small number of analytics providers can do. To use their service, you must register at their site, get an
application key and password that uniquely identifies your app, and download the libraries which get compiled into the Apsalar plugin. See the plugin's corresponding
<PlatformAndName>.Build.cs
file to see where the libraries and headers are expected to be placed.
Configuration
Once you have done the prerequisites and have successfully built the plugin for the target platform, you can configure the plugin for your game. As of 4.5, there are five configuration setting options.

Controls whether Apsalar listens to in-app purchase receipts or not; if set to false, Apsalar will automatically report revenue for your application. |
The only required settings are the
ApiKey
and
ApiSecret
. You can leave the others out of your configuration and Apsalar's defaults will be used.

DefaultEngine.ini
file.
