Also known as EventTrackerID

EventTypeCode

Configurable string value for the event type that identifies it when submitting conversions. To view or configure this value, see Settings → Event Types → Actions → View/Edit → "Codes" in the platform.

EventCode

Custom identifier for the event that occurred in your mobile app that you want to report (e.g., INSTALL, SIGN-UP, SALE, etc.)

With Mobile events, the ActionTrackerId is specific to the mobile type (E.g., iOS, Android). EventCode is submitted to distinguish between the different mobile events (INSTALL, SIGN-UP, SALE, etc.)

2038-01-19T03:14:08Z

NOW is also an accepted value, but should only be used when a datetime in ISO 8601 format cannot be provided. NOW records the time the event is processed, not when it occurred. If delays or outages happen, this may result in incorrect EventDate values.
