Offer URL parser
The URL parser reads an advertiser’s destination URL and extracts the query parameters automatically. You then map each extracted parameter to the corresponding Integr8 macro. This replaces manual parameter entry and reduces setup errors.
Before you begin
- Have the advertiser’s full destination URL with all query parameters.
- Know which Integr8 macro each advertiser parameter should receive (for example, the advertiser’s
clickidshould map to{transaction_id}).
Use the URL parser
- Go to Offers > Offers Management and create or open an offer.
- In the General tab (or the Landing Page tab for existing offers), find the Redirect URL field.
- Paste the advertiser’s full URL with all parameters, for example:
https://advertiser.com/lp?clickid=CLICK_ID&affid=AFF_ID&campaign=CAMPAIGN
- Click Parse URL. Integr8 extracts every query parameter.
- For each extracted parameter, pick the Integr8 macro to substitute:
clickidto{transaction_id}affidto{publisher_id}campaignto{offer_id}or leave as a static value
- Click Save.
Always map the advertiser’s click ID parameter to {transaction_id}. Without this mapping, Integr8 cannot match conversions from the advertiser’s postback back to your clicks.
Parameter mapping reference
| Integr8 macro | Description |
|---|---|
{transaction_id} | Unique click ID. Always map this to the advertiser’s click ID parameter. |
{publisher_id} | Integr8 publisher ID |
{offer_id} | Integr8 offer ID |
{sub_id} | Sub-publisher ID from the tracking link |
{payout} | Publisher payout amount |
{revenue} | Advertiser revenue amount |
Test the parsed URL
After saving, use the Test link type from the tracking link generator to verify the substitution works before distributing links to publishers. Test links bypass targeting and capping rules.
Next steps
- Add landing pages to manage multiple destination URLs per offer.
- Generate a tracking link once the redirect URL is verified.
