Specification
A postback is a GET or POST request sent over HTTP or HTTPS (recommended) to the postback URL specified in the tracker settings.
Sending the postback is considered unsuccessful if:
- The HTTP response code is something other than 200-x.
- The server didn't respond within 5 seconds.
It will be re-sent every 3 minutes. If the postback was't sent successfully within 24 hours of the first attempt, no more attempts will be made.
