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?
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
