Custom AdRequest REST API for Mobile SDK
This plugin adds a REST API between your mobile app SDK and Revive Adserver: the SDK sends an ad request with a zone ID and targeting parameters, and the API returns matching ads, with video ads delivered as a VAST response. Ad networks and app teams with their own SDK keep Revive Adserver as the decisioning backend.
What it does
- Acts as middleware, so an app can request ads through its own SDK without needing the default Revive delivery path.
- Accepts targeting inputs such as user IP, device model, package name, OS version and location, so requests can be matched to the right campaigns by device and place.
- Returns banner details in JSON, including banner URL, title, description, size, click URL and impression tracking URL, so the app has what it needs to render and count the ad.
- Delivers video ads as a VAST response with linear and non-linear ads and video event tracking, so one endpoint covers banner and video demand.
How it fits your ad stack
Every request carries a zone ID, so the zones you set up in Revive Adserver remain the unit of inventory. The video response is described as VAST 2.0, while the current VAST family is 4.x, so check whether newer features matter to your players. VAST is the IAB Tech Lab standard that tells a video player which ad to play and how, and in-app inventory is normally declared through app-ads.txt so buyers can verify who is authorised to sell it.
