## Getting Started

This guide enables you to fully enable the AppLovin Event API destination for your site. For simplicity the event used for demonstration purposes is the generic `Page View` event. For more complex events see[ our additional documentation](/readme/setting-up-your-events.md). Additionally this guide assumes you have the Freshpaint snippet installed on your site, if you do not please follow[ this guide](/readme/guides/quickstart/installing-freshpaint.md).

1. Find/create your Axon **Events Key** for AppLovin
2. Enable the Freshpaint AppLovin destination
   * If in HIPAA mode enable the required fields
3. Confirm and validate events

### Find your Axon Events Key for AppLovin

{% hint style="success" %}
AppLovin uses the Axon Ads Manager. We'll generally refer to them as AppLovin in this guide, but some links will correctly link out to ads.axon.ai or their documentation.
{% endhint %}

1. Log into your [Axon Ads Manager](https://ads.axon.ai/).
2. Select **Events** in the left-hand menu.
3. Copy the ID at the top of the page.

2. Search for the **AppLovin** integration.
3. Select **Configure** to paste your **Event Key** from the above step.
4. Customers that use HIPAA mode should then configure the required, recommended, and recommended view-through properties. You can find all properties that the Freshpaint AppLovin integration supports here: [AppLovin Event API Reference](/integrations/destinations/direct-response-ads/applovin-event-api-early-access/applovin-event-api-reference.md).

### Confirm and Validate Events in AppLovin

When first setting up your AppLovin account, you will be required to send 1 of each required event before you can view the Event Manager.

You can view the list of required parameters for each of these events types[ in their documentation](https://support.axon.ai/en/growth/promoting-your-websites/axon-pixel-integration/events-and-objects).

Afterwards, to check whether AppLovin is receiving events:

1. Log into your [Axon Ads Manager](https://ads.axon.ai/).
2. Select **Events** in the left-hand menu.
3. You should see events coming through under the large graph under **Event details** on this page.
   1. Successfully sent events will increment the Count and the "Last seen" time. It's usually within a few seconds. They mention at the top of the page it can be up to 2 hours.
4. See that your event has a status of :green\_circle: <mark style="color:$success;">**All Working**</mark>. Click to spot check events.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://documentation.freshpaint.io/integrations/destinations/direct-response-ads/applovin-event-api-early-access/applovin-event-api-quick-start-guide.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
