Logic

The CheckAvailability web service function returns the availabilities for all Campaign Items not connected to an Ad Server and starts the availability check for the Campaign Items that are connected to an Ad Server. If an availability check job was started the job information will be saved to the field ADvendio__MostRecentGatewayJobInformation__c. The returned Campaign Item can now be used to get the job results by using the CheckAvailabilityJobUpdates JobUpdates function.


The following fields are updated by the CheckAvailability or CheckAvailabilityJobUpdates or JobUpdates function.

Campaign Item FieldData formatNote
ADvendio__AvailabilityRunning__cNumber

Campaign Item start time < NOW()

AND

Already submitted to the Ad Server

ADvendio__ReservedImpressionsRunning__cNumber
ADvendio__MatchedImpressionsRunning__cNumber
ADvendio__Availability__cNumber

Campaign Item start time > NOW()

OR

Not yet submitted to the Ad Server

ADvendio__MatchedImpressionsPlanned__cNumber
ADvendio__Share_of_Voice__cPercent100 * Matched / BookingQuantity
ADvendio__LastAvailabilityForecast__cDate/TimeNOW()
ADvendio__MostRecentGatewayJobInformation__c

JSON String:

{"jobId":123456,
  "campaignItemId":"a0Y000000000001EAA"
  "status":{
    "progress":1,
    "message":"Finish Job",
    "status":2,
    "start":"2019-09-02T07:34:37.000+0000",
    "operation":"Forecast",
    "orgId":"00D1x0000008bZ9EAI"
}}

If an Ad Server is connected the availability will be asynchonously checked by the Ad Server Gateway.

This field is used to store information about the asynchronous job.

campaignItemId: If there is no Campaign Item id, we need an identifier to map back the results, so a fake id is automatically generated.

progress: A value between 0 and 1 to show the progress of the job. Starts with 0 and is finished when it reatches 1.

message: Message about the job status

status: Queued = 0, In progress = 1, completed = 2, failed = 3

start: The the time stamp when the job was started.

operation: For Check Availability always "Forecast".

orgId: The Salesforce org id.

ADvendio__SelectedContent__r.ADvendio__Availability__c

JSON:

{ "version":1,
  "availabilityPerTime": {
    "2020-01-01":123,
    "2020-02-01":565
  }
}

If there is Content linked to the Campaign Item at it is no AdServer connected, the availability will be checked per content per time frame. Time frames are days for CPD, weeks for CPW, months for CPMo, years for CPY and the Campaign Item run time for Fixed Price billing category.

version: A version number for the JSON format in case we need to change it.

availabilityPerTime: Map of the first date of a time frame to the availability number for that time frame.
