Deprecation/Deletion Schedule for 2024/2025

Deprecation/Deletion Schedule for 2024/2025

The media landscape is highly dynamic and so is our product. To support you in keeping an overview and ensure good performance, we remove features not in use anymore, from our Managed Package. This is the schedule of the features we're planning to deprecate or replace. If you are affected, please see the attached links for further steps.

If you have further questions, feel free to contact your Technical Account Manager, or open a case via the Support Portal at https://support.advendio.com.

To delete deprecated fields, you will need to switch to Salesforce Classic, here are the steps:

  • Switch to Salesforce classic

  • Click setup on the top right

  • On the left hand side see Build-> Create-Objects-> click Objects

  • Search for the object e.g "Campaign Item" and click on the link

  • Under Custom Fields & Relationships find the field you need to delete, e.g "ADvendio__ProposalLineItemId__c"

  • There will be a button to delete it on the left - Click delete and confirm

low

With the ADvendio releases of 2023, legacy geo targeting features will not work anymore and will be deprecated.

As most customers are already using our enhanced targeting features, they will not be affected by this change. If you are still using any of the mentioned objects for setting up geo targeting for your AdServer, please check the following instructions:

These fields were used to prevent the same features to run at the same time for the same external system and thus causing problems. We don't need the Salesforce fields anymore for the validation, thus they are marked for deletion in May.

The fields are not working anymore for new data, but existing data is still saved in there and will continue to work. Find out more: 4.16.10 Breaking Change: Change in Commitment Data structure and deprecation of old fields in version 2.141

Campaign Item

Campaign Item field:

  • Proposal ID

Campaign Item field:

  • Proposal Line Item Id

AD-6019

Deprecation Done

very low

These fields are not referenced in the code anymore and therefore have no logic behind them.

To avoid confusion, for our Programmatic Guaranteed feature, we're using the fields AdServer Proposal ID and AdServer Proposal Line item ID, they won't be affected by the changes.

There are no further steps needed. Once the fields are deleted from the ADvendio Package, you can proceed to remove them.

2.137

Google AdManager, Delivery Data

Detailed viewed impression metrics on Campaign Item, with the following fields:

  • AvAsEligibleAi

  • AvAsMeasurableAi

  • AvAsMeasurableAiRate

  • AvTotalEligibleAi

  • AvTotalMeasurableAi

  • AVTotalMeasurableAiRate

  • AvTotalViewableAi

  • AvTotalViewableAiRate

AD-6048

Deprecation in progress

medium

With version 2.137, we will remove those detailed metrics from the lifetime delivery import, in order to focus on the key metrics.

This will not impact the actual viewed impressions we import and use for billing vCPM items. Those will still be imported to Campaign Items.

There will be no direct workaround, but you can use our new custom metrics feature to import the values into your own fields. Find out more: 7.3.18 How to import custom delivery data metrics from our connected systems into ADvendio?
