Effective January 1, 2024, Apple App Store no longer generates the Magazines & Newspapers report. For connectors created on or before January 1, 2024, we will continue to sync data from the Magazines & Newspapers reports into the SALES_NEWSSTAND_DETAILED
table. For more information, see Apple's documentation.
December 2022
Apple renamed the Promotional Offer Name report field to Subscription Offer Name in the new versions of the reports. We have renamed the promotional_offer_name
column to subscription_offer_name
in the following tables:
SALES_SUBSCRIBER_DETAILED
SALES_SUBSCRIPTION_SUMMARY
SALES_SUBSCRIPTION_EVENT_SUMMARY
We now sync new data into the subscription_offer_name
column in the destination tables.
We are gradually rolling out this feature to all existing connectors. Contact our support team if you want to backfill older data from the promotional_offer_name
column to the new subscription_offer_name
column. You may experience slow sync speeds when you backfill the older data into the column.
We have added four new columns to the SALES_SUBSCRIPTION_SUMMARY
table:
free_trial_offer_code_subscriptions
pay_up_front_offer_code_subscriptions
pay_as_you_go_offer_code_subscriptions
subscribers
