FAQ

Where do I find my AWIN API key and Advertiser ID?

Log in to your AWIN account and navigate to Account > API credentials (sometimes listed under your profile or settings menu). Your Advertiser ID is typically shown in the top navigation or account summary page once you're logged in. Both are required to authenticate the connection in Coupler.io.

Can I pull data from multiple AWIN advertiser accounts into one destination?

Yes. Create one data flow source per advertiser account, each with its own API key and Advertiser ID. Then use the Append transformation in Coupler.io to combine the data from all accounts into a single table in your destination.

What does the step increment parameter do, and what should I set it to?

Step increment controls the size of each time window Coupler.io uses when making API requests to AWIN. For example, setting it to P30D means data is fetched in 30-day chunks. This is useful for large date ranges where a single request would be too large or slow. For Campaign performances, the maximum window is 400 days — for safety, stick to 30–90 day increments.

Why do my transaction commission totals keep changing between syncs?

AWIN transactions move through statuses — typically pending, then confirmed or declined. If transactions are declined after your last sync, the totals in your destination will be out of date. Set the lookback days parameter (14 days is a good starting point) so Coupler.io re-syncs recently updated transactions on every run.

What's the difference between Campaign performances and Transactions?

Campaign performances gives you aggregated metrics (clicks, sales, commissions, revenue) rolled up at the campaign level — good for reporting and trend analysis. Transactions gives you a row for every individual sale, including order reference, publisher, voucher code, and commission status — better for reconciliation and publisher-level analysis. For most use cases, you'll want both.

Can I send AWIN data to AI tools for analysis?

Yes. Coupler.io supports AI destinations including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Cursor, Perplexity, and OpenClaw. You can route your AWIN campaign or transaction data directly to these tools to generate summaries, identify anomalies, or draft affiliate performance reports.

How far back can I pull historical data?

This depends on your AWIN account history. Coupler.io doesn't impose a hard limit, but the AWIN API limits Campaign performances requests to a maximum 400-day window per call. Use the step increment parameter to handle longer historical ranges. Set your start date using the date picker in the data flow configuration.
