Login Record creation
Attention
The reporting feature of SMART only support 30 days as reporting time frame in the default configuration. You will need premium reporting enabled in order for the ADvendio Delivery Report features to work properly.
Otherwise it might be that they are ending in an error message: “Error while creating the report, HTTP/1.1 403” when using the delivery reports in ADvendio.
Please contact your SMART Account manager for more information.
Go to Overview - Connections, and create a new SMART record. Please make sure that you:
Request a REST API login. Make sure this REST login will have administration rights to create campaigns and insert flights in SMART (your normal GUI Smart login will not work here).
Enter these login credentials as username + password, as well as additional username and additional password.
Enter your network ID, which you fill into the corresponding field also in the login record. If you don't know your network ID, ask your SMART consultant.
Please enter the required Advertiser-Group-ID in the field "ADvendio__AdvertiserGroupID__c" in Object "ADvendio__AdServer_Login__c".
Advertiser and Agency
REST
If you are using the REST API, we will create the Advertiser as a "Direct booking Customers".
If you like to enter the IDs manually, create a new record and enter data as follows:
For Advertiser:
Field "AdServer Advertiser ID Name " = ID,
"Advertiser" linked to the Account,
the "Agency" reference empty,
"AdServer Login" set to the correct SMART login.
For Agency:
Field "AdServer Advertiser ID Name " = ID,
Advertiser" and "Agency" both refer to the same Agency Account,
"AdServer Login" set to the correct SMART login.
For all older version, please upgrade!
To book media campaigns, please pay attention that:
Advertisers without Agency:
Leave the field "Agency" in your Media Campaign empty or enter the Advertiser twice (for in-house agencies)'
Advertiser with Agency:
Enter "Account" and "Agency" in your Media Campaign appropriately.
Please enter the required Advertiser-Group-ID in the field "ADvendio__AdvertiserGroupID__c" in Objekt "ADvendio__AdServer_Login__c".
You find this in your SMART UI if you open any Advertiser (from advertisers list), and look at the group ID (e.g., XGroupeID GET parameter) which is part of the URL.
How to handle Special Characters in Account Names
The Smart UI and Interface don't support many special characters. The interface will display an error message. As some of these characters might be in the actual companies names, and you like to show them in your documents/PDFs, please make sure to follow this process:
Create the Account manually in SMART (without special characters)
Copy the ID of the advertiser from SMART
Create the Account in ADvendio and manually create an External Account ID, entering the ID of the advertiser from SMART.
Inventory Setup Ad Type
Make sure to fill out the Format ID(s)
Format ID(s) (Object AdType) and
AdServer IDs (Object AdSpec). You can also select your multiple format IDs here by selecting an AdServer IDs of Type Format in the AdServer ID AdSpec Assignments related list or use the Inventory Targeting in the Media Configuration to choose the formats to target. If your are using multiple formats, ADvendio will automatically create one Insertion in SMART for each format, and use a grouped inventory goal for them.
