To access the Network Settings, navigate to the top left corner of the page, click on the three dots, and select the Network Settings option.

Network ID

The unique identifier for your network is shown at the top of the window.

 

Pre-Bid

Turning on the Filter Traffic from Anonymous IP Addresses option specifies that every opportunity that arrives from an identified anonymous IP address will not load Cedato's Player and Requests to demand items won't be sent.

An anonymous IP address is a masked IP address. By using an anonymous IP address an end-user prevents the website and advertisers a genuine identification of its location.

 

Callbacks

A Callback is triggered by the events that you define in Cedato. When a Callback is triggered, it sends an indication of the event that occurred to an associated 3rd party system containing data passed through the macros you use.

Callbacks can be set for an entire Cedato Network or for specific Supply/Demand items. If a Callback is defined for an entire Network, (as described below), then there is no need to define it for specific Supply items or Demand items.

For example, a Callback can be triggered each time a Cedato player is loaded or a video Ad Starts playing.

To define a Callback: 

  1. Display the Network Settings.
  2. In the Callbacks section, click + Add Callback.
  1. Enter the Callback URL.
  2. This Callback URL is comprised of parameters and macros. These macros must be replaced with Cedato macros.

To display the list of available macros, click View Available Macros. The following displays:

From this list, copy the relevant macros into the URL.

Note: The DEMAND_ID and RPM macros are not relevant for the Player Ready event.

  1. From the dropdown menu, select the event that triggers the Callback so that it sends an indication of the event to the URL defined above:
    • Player Ready: the player was loaded 
    • Ad Start: Indicates an impression
    • Ad Complete: Ad was played through to its entire duration.
    • Ad Click: Indicates that the viewer has clicked the ad.
    • IVT Detection: % of impressions to be sent as a sample. This option is used to sample impressions to analyze and track IVT. The JavaScript callback enables the third-party vendor to analyze and provide data regarding the impressions on the vendors' platform. When an impression occurs, the traffic can be sent to any analysis tools for detecting invalid traffic. In the Impressions to Sample (%) field, specify the percentage of impressions you wish to sample in order to analyze. Because this type of Callback is typically a JavaScript, its domain and the URL itself must be a Cedato-approved vendor domain. This list is handled by a Cedato Thecnical  Customer Success representative.
  1. You can define multiple Callbacks by clicking the +Add Callback option again, each being triggered by a different event; and up to two Callbacks for each event type, as shown below:

 

Platform API key

This option allows you to create an API access key for connecting to the Cedato API.

 

Encryption Key

The Cedato macro encryption uses a symmetric key algorithm. It uses an encryption key for the encryption and decryption of the relevant values while authenticating the received data. For this purpose, use the key generated here. The encryption mechanism uses the AES-128 cipher in CBC mode and Base64 encoding to provide delivery via URL.
