How to match Firebase units

We import data from a variety of data sources and display that data by app. Some data sources, specifically usage networks, use their own convention for reporting data which doesn't always make it easy to automatically match units to the correct app.

In this case, Firebase doesn't always provide enough information to match the units automatically. When that happens, you'll need to connect the units manually.

Through the Unit Mapping page → we've made it easy for you to match, re-match, or ignore units as needed.

Firebase doesn't have its own API, so we we use the Google Analytics API, through Firebase.

The Unit Matching page in Appfigures will show you the unit as is:

To find these IDs for matching:

  1. Go to https://analytics.google.com/analytics/web -> Select the project and app -> Admin -> Data Streams.

  2. From here you will be able to use the bundle ID that is in the Unit's name, most of the time.

  1. If there hapepns to be a duplicate, you can use the ID shown when you select a particular Data Stream from the Data Streams page (In step #1) to match the unit. That ID will correspond with the number at the end of the Unit ID.
