Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of information technology, and in particular to an information processing method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of smart device technology, users are acquiring information in increasingly diverse ways. For example, smart devices display multimedia information such as text, images, and videos for users to view and use. Advertising information, as an important form of multimedia information, can provide advertisers with efficient product presentation during its display to users, ultimately achieving conversion of advertising information. This could involve users downloading and installing applications or purchasing products shown in advertisements.

[0003] To better understand the conversion effect of advertising messages, advertisers usually conduct advertising message attribution analysis after an advertising message conversion event occurs, in order to determine which advertising platform the user used to achieve the conversion. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, or at least partially solve them, embodiments of this disclosure provide an information processing method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium that determine the association relationship between a first client and a second client.

[0052] Figure 1This is a flowchart of an information processing method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. The method is applied to a first client installed on a terminal device and aims to determine a certain association between the first client and a second client. Typically, for example, it determines that the second client was downloaded (including installed) to the terminal device based on the first client. In other words, the information processing method provided in this embodiment can be used to determine through what channel a user downloaded the second client. As another example, the second client was launched based on the first client; in other words, the information processing method provided in this embodiment can be used to determine through what channel a user launched the second client. The information processing method provided in this embodiment can be executed by an information processing device, which can be implemented in software and / or hardware and can be configured in the terminal device.

[0053] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0054] Step 110: When a trigger command associated with the second client is detected, establish the first local communication node.

[0055] The triggering instructions associated with the second client include a download instruction that enters the download interface of the second client and is triggered based on the download interface, or an instruction that starts the second client and performs a preset interactive operation on the second client. The preset interactive operation may be a video consumption operation or a shopping operation, etc.

[0056] For example, the first client may be a video-related client, such as a live streaming client. During the live stream, a download entry for the second client may be displayed. When the user triggers the download entry, the user is redirected to the download interface of the second client. The download interface usually has a "download" control. By triggering the "download" control, the user can trigger the download command of the second client.

[0057] For example, when a streamer is broadcasting gameplay of a game, at the end of the broadcast, they can recommend a download link for the game (i.e., the second client) to the viewers. Simultaneously, the download link is displayed on the live streaming client (i.e., the first client). When viewers trigger the download link on their own devices, they are taken to the game's download page, where they can download the game by triggering the "Download" control displayed on the download page.

[0058] In order to record the event that the second client was downloaded through the first client, when the download interface of the second client is detected and a download command is triggered based on the download interface, the first client establishes a first local communication node.

[0059] Optionally, based on the current technology that TCP Sockets support establishing local (local refers to the terminal device) inter-process connections via a specified IP address (****), and considering that when the second client is opened, if the first and second clients can communicate locally, it is possible to efficiently determine the objective fact that the second client's download and opening were caused by the first client's referral (because intra-device communication only occurs on the same terminal device). Upon detecting entry into the second client's download interface and triggering a download command based on that interface, the first client establishes a service Socket with IP address **** and port number XXXX, designating this service Socket as the first local communication node. The purpose of establishing the first local communication node is to enable a local communication link between the second and first clients, thereby efficiently tracing whether the second client's download was prompted by the first client's referral, or whether the second client was initiated by the first client and used for preset interactive operations (such as video consumption or shopping). In summary, this achieves the goal of efficiently determining the relationship between the first and second clients.

[0060] Step 120: Receive target information sent by the first server corresponding to the first client.

[0061] Specifically, the target information may be information about the second client, such as the download time or startup time of the second client. This target information may be generated by the first server corresponding to the first client.

[0062] For example, in a specific application scenario, when the first server detects a download instruction triggered by the first client entering the download interface of the second client, it generates encrypted target information based on preset logic. This preset logic, for example, involves encrypting information, including at least the download time of the second client, using an encryption algorithm. Encrypting the target information ensures information security during transmission. The target information also allows for the determination of a relatively complete attribution chain; for example, it can be determined that not only was the second client's download prompted by the first client's traffic, but also that the user downloaded at a specific time, thus establishing a relatively complete attribution chain.

[0063] In another specific application scenario, when the first server detects an instruction to launch the second client based on the first client, it generates encrypted target information based on preset logic. The preset logic, for example, is to encrypt information including at least the launch time of the second client using an encryption algorithm.

[0064] Step 130: Send the target information to the second client through the local communication link between the first client and the second client, so that the second client sends the target information to the second server corresponding to the second client. The second server determines the association between the first client and the second client based on the target information. The local communication link is created based on the second client and the first local communication node.

[0065] Optionally, creating the local communication link based on the second client and the first local communication node includes: after the user downloads the second client, if the user performs an interactive action of opening (i.e., downloading and opening) the second client, that is, when the second client detects a launch command (which may be triggered by the interactive action), the second client establishes a second local communication node and connects to the first local communication node established by the first client, thereby establishing a local communication link between the first client and the second client. The method by which the second client establishes the second local communication node is similar to the method by which the first client establishes the first local communication node, specifically by establishing a local service socket.

[0066] It is understandable that users need to open the second client when the first client is running and within a preset time period after the second client has finished downloading. In other words, users need to open the second client when the first local communication node established by the first client is in a valid state. Otherwise, the second local communication node established by the second client will not be able to establish a connection with the first local communication node, which will in turn prevent the first client and the second client from establishing a local communication link.

[0067] Through the local communication link between the first client and the second client, the first client sends the target information it receives to the second client, and the second client then sends the target information to the second server corresponding to the second client, so that the second server can determine the association relationship between the first client and the second client based on the target information. This association relationship is, for example, "the user downloaded the second client because of the traffic redirection from the first client".

[0068] By limiting the triggering conditions for the first client to establish the first local communication node—"detecting that the first client enters the download interface of the second client and triggers a download command based on the download interface", the triggering conditions for the second client to establish the second local communication node—"the user triggers the opening command of the second client", and the limiting conditions for the establishment of a communication link between the first local communication node and the second local communication node—"both the first local communication node and the second local communication node must be in an effective state", the goal of maintaining a close association between the first client and the second client is achieved, thereby realizing the goal of accurately determining the association between the first client and the second client.

[0069] Furthermore, to improve the accuracy of determining the association between the first client and the second client, before receiving the target information sent by the first server corresponding to the first client, the method further includes:

[0070] The system receives authentication information sent by the second client based on the local communication link; and sends the authentication information to the first server. The target information is sent by the first server to the first client when the first server verifies the authentication information and obtains a first result (specifically, information indicating that the authentication information is valid). The authentication information is obtained by the second client from the second server, and the second server obtains the authentication information from the first server. The authentication information is generated and encrypted by the first server based on the identifier of the second client and the current timestamp when it detects a trigger command associated with the second client triggered by the first client. The target information is generated and encrypted by the first server based on preset logic.

[0071] In other words, when the first server detects a download command triggered by the first client entering the download interface of the second client, it generates the authentication information based on the second client's identifier (provided to the first server by the second server when the two servers establish a cooperative relationship) and the current timestamp (the timestamp at the time the download command is detected). To ensure information security, the authentication information can be encrypted ciphertext. The authentication information must be unique, secure, and timely.

[0072] In other words, the first server generates the authentication information, then sends the authentication information to the second server, which in turn sends it to the second client. The second client then sends the authentication information back to the first client, and the first client returns the authentication information to the first server. This allows the first server to confirm whether the authentication information sent by the first client is the same as the one sent to the second server. If it is, the first server then sends the target information to the first client. The reason for setting up the above verification operation on the authentication information is that after the first client establishes the first local communication node, other clients on the terminal device besides the second client can also establish a local communication link with the first client through the first local communication node. To ensure the accuracy of advertising attribution, in the scheme of this embodiment, the second client is authenticated before sending the target information to the first client to confirm that the second client is a client that can truly establish a local communication link with the first client. Advertising attribution specifically refers to determining through which channel a user downloads and installs the client being promoted by the advertiser.

[0073] The information processing method provided in this disclosure, based on the objective fact that user interactions such as downloading, opening, or registering the second client are all completed on the same terminal device, designs a scheme to determine the association between the second client and the first client through local communication on the terminal device, thereby achieving the purpose of effectively determining the association between the second client and the first client.

[0074] Based on the above embodiments, and referring to the following... Figure 2 The method described herein is an information processing method applied to a second client downloaded to the terminal device based on the first client, or a second client launched based on the first client (the second client is an existing client already installed on the terminal device). The method works in conjunction with the operations performed by the first client to determine the association between the first client and the second client, thereby achieving more effective advertising attribution.

[0075] like Figure 2 As shown, the information processing method includes the following steps:

[0076] Step 210: When a startup command is detected, establish a second local communication node.

[0077] Optionally, establishing a second local communication node can specifically be done by establishing a local socket node based on TCP socket.

[0078] Step 220: Receive target information sent by the first client through the local communication link between the first client and the second client. The local communication link is created based on the first local communication node and the second local communication node. The first local communication node is established by the first client when it detects a trigger command associated with the second client.

[0079] The triggering instructions associated with the second client include a download instruction that enters the download interface of the second client and is triggered based on the download interface, or an instruction that starts the second client.

[0080] For example, the user enters the download interface of the second client through the first client and triggers a download command based on the download interface. At this time, the first client creates a first local communication node. After the user finishes downloading the second client, if the user performs an interactive action of opening (i.e., downloading and opening) the second client, that is, when the second client detects a start command (which may be triggered by the interactive action), the second client establishes a second local communication node and connects to the first local communication node established by the first client, thereby establishing a local communication link between the first client and the second client.

[0081] It is understandable that users need to open the second client when the first client is running and within a preset time period after the second client has finished downloading. In other words, users need to open the second client when the first local communication node established by the first client is in a valid state. Otherwise, the second local communication node established by the second client will not be able to establish a connection with the first local communication node, which will in turn prevent the first client and the second client from establishing a local communication link.

[0082] The target information may specifically be information about the second client, such as the download time of the second client. The target information can be generated by a first server corresponding to the first client. Specifically, when the first server detects a download command triggered based on the first client entering the download interface of the second client, it generates encrypted target information based on preset logic. This preset logic, for example, involves encrypting information, including at least the download time of the second client, using an encryption algorithm. Encrypting the target information ensures information security during transmission. The target information also allows for the determination of a relatively complete attribution chain; for example, it can be determined that not only was the second client's download prompted by the first client's traffic, but also that the user downloaded at a specific time, thus establishing a relatively complete attribution chain.

[0083] Step 230: Send the target information to the second server corresponding to the second client, so that the second server can determine the association between the first client and the second client based on the target information.

[0084] Furthermore, to improve the accuracy of determining the association between the first client and the second client, before receiving the target information sent by the first client through the local communication link with the second client, the method further includes:

[0085] The system requests authentication information from the second server; the authentication information obtained from the second server is then sent to the first client via a local communication link with the first client, so that the first client sends the authentication information to the first server corresponding to the first client for verification. The target information is sent by the first server to the first client when the verification result obtained by the first server on the authentication information is a first result. In other words, the first server sends the target information to the first client when the verification result obtained by the first server on the authentication information is a first result.

[0086] The authentication information is obtained by the second server from the first server. When the first server detects a download instruction triggered by the first client entering the download interface of the second client, it generates encrypted authentication information based on the identifier of the second client and the current timestamp. In other words, the first server generates the authentication information, then sends it to the second server, which in turn sends it to the second client. The second client then sends it back to the first client, and the first client returns the authentication information to the first server. This allows the first server to confirm whether the authentication information sent by the first client is the same as the one sent to the second server. If so, the first server then sends the target information to the first client. The reason for this authentication information verification is that after the first client establishes a first local communication node, other clients on the terminal device besides the second client can also establish a local communication link with the first client through the first local communication node. To ensure the accuracy of advertising attribution, in this embodiment, the second client is authenticated before sending the target information to the first client to confirm that the second client is truly capable of establishing a local communication link with the first client. Advertising attribution specifically refers to determining through which channels users download and install the client application being promoted by the advertiser.

[0087] The information processing method provided in this disclosure, based on the objective fact that user interactions such as downloading, opening, or registering the second client are all completed on the same terminal device, designs a scheme to determine the association between the second client and the first client through local communication on the terminal device, thereby achieving the goal of accurately determining the association between the second client and the first client.

[0088] Based on the above embodiments, and referring to the following... Figure 3 The diagram illustrates an interaction flow between a first client, a first server, a second client, and a second server. Specifically, triggered by a user interaction (e.g., the user clicking a download link for the second client displayed through the first client), when the download interface for the second client is displayed on the first client, the first client establishes a first local communication node, waiting for other clients on the terminal device to connect. Simultaneously, the first server generates encrypted target information based on preset logic. When the second client completes the download, the user launches the second client, which establishes a second local communication node, connects to the first local communication node, and requests authentication information from the second server. Based on the second client's request, the second server sends authentication information to the first server. The server requests authentication information. The first server sends the authentication information to the second server, which then sends it to the second client. The second client sends the authentication information back to the first client via a local communication link, and the first client returns the authentication information to the first server. The first server verifies the authentication information, and if the verification is successful, sends pre-generated target information to the first client. The first client further sends the target information to the second client via the local communication link, and the second client sends the target information to the second server. The second server determines the association between the first and second clients based on the target information. Furthermore, to improve attribution accuracy, the second server can return the target information to the first server, allowing the first server to verify it. If the verification passes, the second server determines the association between the first and second clients based on the target information. Further, based on the association determined by the target information, when the second server detects other information related to the second client, it associates this other information with the first client and can also send this other information to the first server, allowing the first server to also establish an association between this other information and the first client.

[0089] Based on the above embodiments, and referring to the following... Figure 4This embodiment illustrates an information processing method applied to a terminal device equipped with a first client and a second client, wherein the second client accesses and downloads data based on the first client's download interface. This embodiment provides a solution for situations where the second client, after being downloaded to the terminal device, has not been launched for an extended period. Specifically, because the second client is not launched within the valid time period of the first local communication node established by the first client, when the second client is launched for the first time, the second local communication node established by the second client cannot establish a local communication link with the first client through the invalid first local communication node. This embodiment provides a solution to this situation.

[0090] like Figure 4 As shown, the information processing method includes the following steps:

[0091] Step 410: When the set conditions are met, a prompt message is displayed through the first client.

[0092] The set condition, for example, is that the second client terminal has not been launched for a considerable period of time after downloading. There are various ways to display the prompt information through the first client, such as displaying the prompt information via push notifications within the first client, or displaying the prompt information through UI animations, etc.

[0093] Step 420: In response to the triggering operation acting on the prompt information, display the startup page of the second client and send the target information obtained from the first client to the second client. The second client is based on the first client entering the download interface and downloading. The target information is generated by the first server corresponding to the first client based on preset logic when it detects the download instruction triggered by the first client entering the download interface of the second client.

[0094] Specifically, on iOS terminal devices, after obtaining target information from the first client through the iOS Scheme capability, the target information is sent to the second client.

[0095] The target information is generated by the first server corresponding to the first client based on preset logic when it detects that the download interface of the second client is accessed by the first client and a download instruction is triggered based on the download interface. The target information is sent to the first client when a triggering operation acting on the prompt information is detected.

[0096] Step 430: The target information is sent to the second server corresponding to the second client through the second client, so that the second server determines the association between the first client and the second client based on the target information.

[0097] Furthermore, to improve attribution accuracy, the second server can return the target information to the first server for verification. When the first server verifies the target information, the second server determines the association between the first client and the second client based on the target information.

[0098] In general, for iOS devices, if a user downloads a second client but doesn't open it for an extended period, the first local communication node established by the first client may have become invalid when the user opens the second client for the first time. In this case, attribution cannot be performed by establishing a local communication connection between the first and second clients. To address this, when the user reopens the first client, the first client prompts the user to open the second client. When the user triggers the relevant open link, the system uses iOS's Scheme capability to directly redirect from the first client to the second client. During the redirection, encrypted target information (obtained from the first client using iOS's Scheme capability) is included. After the second client is launched, it sends this target information to a second server, which then performs attribution processing based on this target information.

[0099] Taking a scenario where the first client is a live streaming client and the second client is a game client as an example, see below. Figure 5 The diagram illustrates an information processing flowchart, which includes the following paths: the path before the user downloads the game client, the path after the download is complete, and the path after the download. Specifically, the path before the user downloads the game client can be as follows: the user enters a live stream through a live streaming client, triggering the game client download interface through the live stream's explanation card, recommendation list, or details page (at this time, the live streaming server generates target information based on preset logic and sends this target information to the live streaming client), triggering the game client download command based on the download interface. After the download is complete, the game client is not launched for a considerable period. When the user re-enters the live stream through the live streaming client, the live stream prompts the user to launch the downloaded game client through various means (including but not limited to push notifications, live stream insertion, UI animations, or the streamer's verbal announcement). When the user triggers the game client launch command through the live stream, the target information obtained from the live streaming client is carried via the Scheme capability provided by the iOS system, redirecting the user to the game client.
