We're happy to announce that
v202002 of the Google Ad Manager API is available starting today. This version includes several new features around video ads.
For “Ad Exchange historical” reports, there are several new video
Columns available beginning with “AD_EXCHANGE_VIDEO_”. Here are a few of the new metrics:
- AD_EXCHANGE_VIDEO_START – the number of impressions where the video was played for video ads by Ad Exchange properties
- AD_EXCHANGE_VIDEO_SKIPS – The number of times a skippable video is skipped
- AD_EXCHANGE_VIDEO_UNMUTE – The number of times a user unmutes the video ad
You can now associate a video
Creative
with an ad registry, such as
Ad-ID or
Clearcast. Video metadata is also getting enhanced with the addition of
Content.contentBundleIds
to show which
ContentBundles
a
Content
object belongs to and
Content.cmsMetadataValueIds
to show which
CmsMetadataValues
are associated with a
Content
object.
The
release notes contain the full list of API changes for v202002 and all other active API versions.
Feel free to reach out to us on the
Ad Manager API forum with any API-related questions.
