Connector AppsFlyer
AppsFlyer is a mobile attribution and marketing analytics platform. AppsFlyer uses tracking links to track many elements relevant to the users' clicks and impressions of mobile ads. When a user clicks on an AppsFlyer tracking link, the URL is saved in AppsFlyer's databases, and the user is redirected to download the app. Supported parameters in the link get parsed and are available via AppsFlyer's raw data reports for advanced analysis.
This connector is based on Pull API

API Token (required)
API token is the user's external API Authorization Key for Pull API. You can get it from your account if you are the owner of the Appsflyer account or ask for it from the owner.
Since/ Until (required)
Report start date in the format of "yyyy-mm-dd" or "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm". For example 2010-01-01’ or ‘2010-01-01%2000%3A15. (The hours' parameter is for raw reports only).
You can use natural language as well, like today, yesterday, Friday, -5 days, 20 days, this month, last month, last year
Important is to note that raw data reports are not aggregated and are downloading all possible events in a requested period of time This might mean a huge amount of data.
To limit the amount of requested data, the `until` parameter for raw data reports is calculated as `since` + 1 day and it doesn’t depend on user input.
For aggregated reports, both `since` and `until` fields are relevant and being used for extracting a report.
