How it Works

The Spotify Conversions connector captures conversion event tracking and sends this data to Spotify, helping you track and measure ad spend for your web campaigns. The Conversion API is a direct, server-to-server integration that allows you to share conversion data without the need for a pixel.

You may need to include the following information when you enable conversion tracking for your web campaigns:

Page Views: User visits a landing page on an advertiser’s site.
Complete Registration: User completes registration for the advertiser’s service.
Add to Cart: User adds to cart of a product or service on the advertiser’s site.
Check Out: User initiates checkout of a product or service on the advertiser’s site.
Purchase: User completes a purchase of a product or service on the advertiser’s site.
Search: User performs a search from the advertiser’s site.
Lead: User enters into a lead status from the advertiser’s site.
Subscribe: User signs up for the advertiser’s service, newsletter, or email communication.

Spotify recommends only using the Purchase event for the initial Alpha.

The Spotify Conversion API supports only email address as a matching identifier. Tealium provides the ability to apply SHA256 hashing, or you can map an already-hashed value to be used in the API.

Configure Settings

Go to the Connector Marketplace and add a new connector. Read the Connector Overview article for general instructions on how to add a connector.

After adding the connector, configure the following settings:

Conversion Tracker ID: Required.
- A Conversion Tracker ID is required for all event requests to the Spotify Conversions API. It is a unique ID used to attribute events to a specific advertiser’s campaigns.
- Click Create Tracker ID to create an ID.
  - Advertiser Name: Required. The advertiser name.
  - Description: Required. A description of the type of events associated with the Tracker ID.

Before partners can begin using the Conversions API, they must reach out to Spotify to link their Conversion Tracker ID to an advertiser/ad account.

Click Done when you are finished configuring the connector.
