I've an android app available on google play store and I want to create a referral system to engage users to share.
The app already has an share button which creates a link like:
Hey, have a look at this app...https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tomatedigital.&referrer=utm_source%3Dapp_referral_USERID
this way i can monitore through google play console and firebase dashboard which links generated downloads, it show the information pretty nice but i need to automatically get it.
would be awesome if i could get it inside the app so i show the sign up for to the user with the referer already filled... but i strongly think it's impossible
but if somehow i can get this information from google play console I could write a script which runs once per day and update the bonus to users with most shares
is that possible? how can i implement a referral system like this?
This can be done with the Google Play referral API which has some more docs here
