  2. Click the menu in the top left corner to open the sidebar.

Get your App token
  1. In the Adjust dashboard, open the app you want to connect to Supermetrics.
  2. Copy the URL from the address bar in your browser. The string after /default/ is your App token.
    • For example, in a URL ending in /#statistics/overview/default/abcdefg, the App token would be abcdefg.
  3. Copy the token.
