Note

Important for Connections to work properly
After installing the new version, Salesforce requires an authorization that can be obtained by running a Check Login (it has to be done just once, on To ensure the proper functioning of Third-Party Integrations (AdServers, Media Buying, Programmatic Import ect.) after installing a new major version, Salesforce OAuth access needs to be granted again. This step can be completed by running a "Check Login" on any one Connection of your choice).
This will ensure all the integrations can work properly.You might . It is only required to be done once, but needs to be done for every user individually. Failing to perform this step may result in issues with connection features. Please confirm this also for Admin users or others that are used to schedule Delivery Reports.

There is the option to mitigate this by using Permission Sets. For detailed instructions, refer to our guide: How to authenticate and authorize ADvendio Gateway for Third-Party System integrations.

You might encounter problems with the encyription of Login Credentials (mainly Access Token field and Media Buying Integrations) please carefully review the following pages: Breaking Change: Version 2.171 Update Connection credentials (AccessTokens) for Integrations and Media Buying Third Party Integrations: Problems with Encryption Errors (AdServer, Media Buying, Programmatic)

It's important to ensure you are not logged into a Salesforce org where you don't wish to install ADvendio. We recommend either an incognito window of your browser or a different browser altogether to install new versions.

CONNECTIONS

Components

Issue Type

Description

Booking Calendar LWC

New Feature

We added a new logic for the AdPrice “Constant Quantity” to use be able to use "Requested Availability" value as a new availability mode to our Booking Calendar/Inventory Forecast service.
Check our Documentation for the mode "Requested Availability": 7.2.24 How to set up the Availability Check for exclusive products? (Inventory Forecast)

Improvement

We’ve further improved our Booking Calendar Forecast feature:

  • implemented a new Behavior that considers the Rate Card validities to be ignored when containing matching Ad prices

  • enhanced the Booking Calendar Ad Price validities behavior along with Feature settings that enables or disables Ad Price validation to avoid any inconsistencies in the results

Changes and optimisations

We fixed the Inventory Forecast Service to properly take runtimes into account when checking availabilities

Creative Upload

New Feature

We enhanced our Creative Upload feature to fully support files stored in Third Party Storage. ADvendio allow to upload files directly via our Ad Manterial Management into external storage and later transfer these files directly into Google AdManager or Xandr.
Currently, Amazon Storage is supported for this.

Delivery Report Center

Improvement

We improved the display of Connection Types in our Delivery Report Center, which were showing technical names instead of the translated connection name.

Improvement

The following improvements were done on our Google AdManager Integration:

  • We updated Google AdManger API to version 202402 and allow an uninterrupted service

  • The import of Creative Templates for Google AdManager now takes into account multichoice variables and automatically imports the possible values for the field.

Changes and optimisations

We fixed an issue where the submit to Ad Server Proposal needed a proper validation.

Integration / EQUATIVE

Changes and optimisations

We fixed the following issues in our EQUATIVE Integration:

  • Problems with the monthly delivery data imports for our Equative Integration, not importing the data successfully in all cases.

  • CPM price rates were sent to Equative with decimals instead of the rounded value

Integration / Freewheel

Improvement

The Freewheel Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol was updated due to deprecation and allow a uninterrupted service

Integration / Xandr

New Feature

Our Xandr Monetize Integration for Publishers now supports the import of Daily and Daily Sitebased Delivery Data.

Changes and optimisations

We fixed the following issues in our Xandr Integration:

  • Submit of CPC items returned an error, now this billing category has no conflicts

  • Newly imported Key Values now display their status properly

  • We removed some imports for Xandr of Creative Format Types from Transfer to ADvendio, which were not used in any of the ADvendio features

Security

Improvement

BREAKING CHANGE ANNOUNCEMENT:

Submit to AdServer

Improvement

We updated how Billing Categories are sent to AdServers in our Submit to AdServer process. This allows you as customer more flexibilty in setting up Campaign Item pricing. Find more information about the changes here: 3.1.4.4.3 How Billing Categories are Mapped to Third Party Integrations (AdServers, SSPs ect.)

Changes and optimisations

We fixed an issue when using the ‘SubmitToAdserverSchedulable’ feature with multiple Google AdManager Campaigns that contained Custom fields at a Media Campaign level.

Targeting & Inventory Transfer

Improvement

We improved our Targeting and Inventory imports for the Transfer to ADvendio feature, by putting the IDs required for the criteria into a single ID field. We are currently starting the migration of the legacy ID field into the new ID field on Connection ID records. New imports will already support the new field, but all related features will for now continue to also use the legacy id field. There are currently no specific customer steps required. 3.5.3.2 Connection ID Technical Migration: Legacy ID to ID Field
