Snapchat Conversions API

The Snapchat Conversion API is a tool that allows you to send data from your server to the Snapchat Ads platform. This includes details about actions like conversions and events that happen on your website. Using this API ensures that Snapchat receives accurate data directly from your server, helping to track ad performance and improve data reliability.

In this demonstration, we guide you on how to set up and use the Snapchat Conversion API for different events and conversions.

Let’s started 🚀

Setting Up Pageview Tag



Once the API template is set up, the next step is to track user activity on your website, starting with page views. A Pageview tag is used to capture website traffic and share this information directly with Snapchat. This data provides insights into user behavior, forming the basis for performance tracking. The following section details how to configure the Pageview tag.
