Serving Native Ads

With native ads, you can get a JSON response which you can use to create your own ad unit, in contrary to an ad tag that loads the ad. This article describes how to create native ads.

Templates

First, create your templates via the page Settings => Customization => Native Ad Templates by setting up the variable that you want AdGlare to return in the response. A variable can be of the following type:
  • Text
  • URL
  • Number
  • Code
  • Boolean

Configure the creative

Once you've set up your templates, create a new Native Ad campaign. Then add a creative, and choose your template from the list. You can now set up the values for each of the variables from the template. Then assign the campaign to a Native Ad zone.

Native Ad URL

To get the native ad URL that returns a JSON response, create a Native Ad zone and click the blue button at the top right.

Logging events

To log events of native ads in AdGlare, you have to make a POST request to https://{your_name}.engine.adglare.net/event with the event token as a payload. To get the token, for example the impression event, look in the JSON response under decisions.{zone_id}.items[].event_tokens.impressions.
