From the Chartboost Dashboard, select "All Apps" from the top of the menu on the lefthand side, then select your desired app. From the app menu on the lefthand side, select "App Settings" then "Basic Settings." Your App ID will be on the next screen under the App Icon.

 

 

 

 
To ensure you receive the most accurate data from AerServ 3rd Party API Reporting, please do not reuse an App ID coupled with the same Ad Location(s) for other ad networks or mediation platforms. Publishers must use a unique App ID and unique Ad Location per app for AerServ only. Reusing these values will result in low integrity data and potentially overinflated impressions and revenue that you will see within the AerServ reporting console.
