The Staff S2S Postback Screen ​

S2S postback shows the addresses an advertiser's server calls to report a conversion back to Octeth, and the names of the query parameters it sends. It replaces the classic admin S2S Postback page. Nothing on this screen sends a request.

ScreenPath on a default installPermission
S2S postback/user/staff/settings/s2s-postbackSettings

Open it from the staff sidebar: click Settings, then S2S postback. The classic admin Settings > S2S Postback link, and the old /app/admin/s2spostback/ address, open the same screen.

Conversion addresses ​

The Conversion addresses card shows two addresses. They are fixed for the install and built from its public address.

  • Conversion address (<your install>/system/s2s-postback/): give this to the advertiser or affiliate network. Their server calls it with the parameters below when a subscriber converts.
  • ClickBank address (<your install>/app/public/cbs2spostback/): for ClickBank, use this one as the instant notification URL instead.

Click the copy icon at the end of an address to copy it.

Parameter names ​

The Parameter names card sets the names of the four query parameters the conversion address reads:

FieldDefaultWhat the parameter carries
Track parameterocridThe identifier Octeth adds to every click link of an S2S campaign. It ties the conversion to the email click
Conversion channelchannelWhere the conversion happened, for example web or app
Conversion valuevalueThe amount of the conversion
Conversion unitunitThe unit of the amount, for example USD

Each name is required and is 1 to 20 letters, digits, underscores (_) or dashes (-).

To change them:

  1. Edit one or more names.
  2. Click Save parameter names.

Only the names you changed are saved, and each save is recorded in the staff audit log.

Renaming the Track parameter ​

WARNING

Click links carry the identifier as ocrid, whatever the Track parameter is called, and campaigns already sent keep the name they were sent with. After a rename, conversions match only if the advertiser sends the identifier under the new name.

When a save renames the Track parameter, the screen asks first. Click Rename to save, or Cancel to keep the current name.

Demo mode ​

In demo mode the screen shows the default names, and saving is not available.
