Format

Which format will be used for this Insertion.

You can manually enter the ID of your desired format in this field or use other ways to assign formats to your Campaign Items or Ad Specs.

If you want to target multiple formats, you need to enter the IDs separated by semicolon, like this:

‘1245;4532’

Please Note: That when using multiple formats, ADvendio will automatically create them as multiple Insertions in SMART with a shared goal, since otherwise it’s not possible by SMART to handle this constellation.

You can either use the Inventory and Rate Manager to create your Adtypes or create them directly in Salesforce.

Setup:

The System Administrator might need to add certain fields to the page layout of the Ad Type to make sure they are available for the users. The Admin might also need to add new values to existing picklist fields in order to match the ones mentioned above if they are missing.
