App Events for Collaborative Ads - Android

Collaborative Ads allows producers, such as consumer-packaged goods advertisers, to run ad campaigns to drive people to seller platforms. Such platforms include online retailer websites or apps and those that can measure, retarget, and optimize towards people who have interacted with the producers' products on the seller platforms. Access to the Collaborative Ads features is provided on a limited basis only. Please contact your Facebook Representative.

To use Collaborative Ads features, the sellers need to implement the following required standard events with their respective parameters. If you're unfamiliar with app events and parameters, or you need to set up Facebook SDK for Android, see Getting Started with App Events for Android first.

Examples

ViewContent Event

AppEventsLogger logger = AppEventsLogger.newLogger(this);
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_PARAM_CONTENT_TYPE, "product");
params.putString(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_PARAM_CONTENT, "[{\"id\": \"1234\", \"quantity\": 1}]");
params.putString(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_PARAM_CURRENCY, "USD");
logger.logEvent(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_NAME_VIEWED_CONTENT, 90.0, params);

Or, with minimal parameters:

AppEventsLogger logger = AppEventsLogger.newLogger(this);
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_PARAM_CONTENT_TYPE, "product");
params.putString(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_PARAM_CONTENT_ID, "1234");
params.putString(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_PARAM_CURRENCY, "USD");
logger.logEvent(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_NAME_VIEWED_CONTENT, 90.0, params);

Note: The minimal parameter setup is valid for ViewContent only and not valid for AddToCart and Purchase.

AddToCart Event

AppEventsLogger logger = AppEventsLogger.newLogger(this);
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_PARAM_CONTENT, "[{\"id\": \"1234\", \"quantity\": 1}, {\"id\": \"5678\", \"quantity\": 1}]");
params.putString(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_PARAM_CONTENT_TYPE, "product");
params.putString(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_PARAM_CURRENCY, "USD");
logger.logEvent(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_NAME_ADDED_TO_CART, 90.0, params);

Purchase Event

AppEventsLogger logger = AppEventsLogger.newLogger(this);
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_PARAM_CONTENT_TYPE, "product");
params.putString(AppEventsConstants.EVENT_PARAM_CONTENT, "[{\"id\": \"1234\", \"quantity\": 2}, {\"id\": \"5678\", \"quantity\": 1}]");
logger.logPurchase(BigDecimal.valueOf(15.98), Currency.getInstance("GBP"), params);

Common Mistakes

  • CONTENT: "[{\"id\": \"SKU-123\"}, {\"id\": \"SKU-456\"}]" - Missing quantity key.
  • CONTENT_ID: "SKU-123,SKU-456,SKU-789" - Missing an array symbol.
  • CONTENT_ID: [] - Missing SKU IDs in an array.
  • CONTENT_TYPE: "soap" - The value is not "product".
  • CURRENCY: "$" - Cannot use a currency symbol format.
  • valueToSum: "5000,00" - Wrong format (should not be a string with comma).
