  • Jason Coe 5 years, 11 months ago

    Hello – After researching the forums and https://foliovision.com/player/vast/url-tags we need help with the following ad tags for our website

    Desktop is live and replaced with…

    https://vid.springserve.com/vast/ID?w=[player_width]&h=[player_height]&url=[permalink]&cb=[random_number]&desc=[LR_TITLE]&ap=[LR_AUTOPLAY]

    Mobile is live and replaced with… but we need help with what the match is for user agent, LAT,LON, DNT.

    https://vid.springserve.com/vast/ID?w=[player_width]&h=[player_height]&url=[permalink]&cb=[random_number]&ip=[ip_addr]&ua={{USER_AGENT}}&lat={{LAT}}&lon={{LON}}&dnt={{DNT}}&desc=[LR_TITLE]&dur=[timestamp]&ap=[LR_AUTOPLAY]

    Hello Jason,

    I think it must be latitute and longitude. Do you have some geo IP in place? Are you getting that data from your web server or from some JSON API?

    We haven’t counted on this with FV Player VAST, it wouldn’t be so easy to add this feature, specially if you are using some geo IP which loads as a script. It would mean FV Player has to wait with VAST ad loading before that information is available. Or perhaps it would be fine if that information is missing if geo IP is slow to respond.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    What about user agent?

    Martin 6 years ago

    Hello Jason,

    such URL tag is not available in FV Player VAST. We could add it easily, but most ad networks don’t require it – since that user agent is automatically sent in the VAST ad loading request. Since the ad request originates in the user’s browser. That’s how HTTP requests work.

    Are you sure your ad provider requires it even if the ad request is originating form user’s browser directly?

    Thanks,
    Martin
