This article contains high-level guidelines for submitting ads using HTML, MRAID, and VAST protocols.
HTML
HTML ads include all non-full screen ads, such as banners and MRECs, as well companion ads (endcards). For more information about endcards, refer to Vungle Exchange OpenRTB 2.5 EndCard Integration.
HTML Ad Markup
Ad markup can take these forms:
- HTML full documents
- Snippets of JavaScript code
- Snippets of HTML code
Creative File Types
Creative file types can include:
- PNG
- JPG/JPEG
- GIF (animated GIFs will be displayed as static images)
- Video
For more information, refer to the Vungle Exchange OpenRTB 2.5 Integration Guide's Banner Object section.
MRAID 2.0
As a bidder, you can target Liftoff Monetize full screen video inventory (this includes full screen interstitial videos and full screen rewarded videos) by using MRAID playables. For full screen MRAID ads, the Liftoff Monetize SDK supports the following ad experiences:
- Playable without video MRAID 2.0
- Static MRAID 2.0
For more information about MRAID 2.0, refer to our MRAID Creatives Submission Guidelines for DSPs.
VAST
Inventory that supports VAST will pass the bid_request.imp.video object in the bid request.
- Vungle Exchange supports VAST 2.0 and 3.0.
- VAST InLine and Wrapper
- Full screen (interstitial and rewarded) placements only
We do not support the VPAID format. We encourage all DSP partners to run endcards to increase performance.
Video Ad Sizes
- Fullscreen only
- 320×480
- 480×320
- 1024×768
- 768×1024
Video MIME Types
We support the following video MIME types:
- Android: video/mp4
- iOS: video/mp4
We do not support MOV and Flash.
Endcards (CompanionAds)
VAST-capable inventory supports companion ads, or endcards. To learn more about endcards, refer to Vungle Exchange OpenRTB 2.5 EndCard Integration.
We recommend the following best practices for endcards:
- Pass VX extra signals so that we can correctly identify different endcard types.
- Track VAST video + HTML static vs. VAST video + HTML playables.
- When submitting VAST video + HTML playable endcard, include
attr”: [13]in theseatbid.bid.attr. - When submitting VAST video + HTML static endcards, no new field needs to be included.
