ConsoliAds Unity AdNetwork Plugin Integration (for v.12.x.x & above)

Getting Started

This documentation will help you integrate the ConsoliAds Ad network Unity plugin to get instant access  for optimized mobile ad analytics and earnings.

A nominal size increase of 1 MB is expected while integrating ConsoliAds AdNetwork.

Before you proceed to integrate, make sure you have:

Create an App

  1. From the left sidebar, navigate to Apps-> New App
  2. Simply import your Live app or manually enter the required information and proceed to ‘Finish’ to instantly create your app

Download & Import SDK

  1. Download the latest ConsoliAds AdNetwork plugin for your required Unity version from https://portal.ConsoliAdsSDK.com/download/unity
  2. Open your Unity Project and import the downloaded plugin; ignore any warnings that may appear.

Add Prefab to your Scene

  1. In your project explorer, go to “Assets/ConsoliAdsSDK/Prefabs” or search for “ConsoliAdsSDK”.
  2. Drag and drop ConsoliAdsSDK prefab into your first scene.
  3. Bundle identifier : the package name of your game (Note: it should be same as the package name added on portal or else the game won’t sync) 
  4. App Version name: the identification Version (present in player settings) of your project
  5. App Version code: the Bundle Version Code of your project
  6. DevMode: when true, it simulates the development environment and prevents developers from changing Live app settings. Complete app development should be done with ‘Dev Mode’ ON. When an app is ready to be published, ‘Dev Mode’ MUST BE turned OFF. (NOTE: Don’t forget to see ‘More About Dev Mode’ section before making the final build)
  7. UserSignature: string to identify the user according to his role and rights provided on the ConsoliAds dashboard
    1. The user signature can be obtained by going to your Personal Info by clicking on your name in the right corner of the top bar on your dashboard
    2. Copy the required user signature for the above initialize argument

8. Platform: enum to specify the build platform such as PlatForm.Google, PlatForm.Apple, PlatForm.Amazon, PlatForm Huawei.

Ready to Code

Plugin Initialization 

ConsoliAds mediation needs to be explicitly initialized, using the following code, once the  prefab is active:

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.Initialize(userConsent);

userConsent: TRUE if user agrees to share his data and opts for personalized ads, FALSE otherwise. This flag is used for GDPR and CCPA compliance both. 

NOTE: all initialize params cannot be modified once ConsoliAds is initialized

Display Interstitial/Video Ad

Load interstitial/Video Ad

Showing interstitial ads requires loading it beforehand. Use the following to load an interstitial ad:

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.LoadInterstitial();

OR

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.LoadInterstitial(ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName);

It is highly recommended to call LoadInterstitial() as early as possible after ConsoliAds has been initialized, e.g. in the Start() method of a script, to allow ad to be pre-loaded.

NOTE: calling LoadInterstitial multiple times does not results in multiple ad network requests

ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName: enum of the placeholder (such as ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.Default, ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.MainMenu) from the ‘Placeholders’ tab in your app details of the ConsoliAds dashboard. No placeholder value is required if you do not have your own placeholders added.

Check Interstitial/Video Ad Availability

Despite having the LoadInterstitial called, interstitial ad availability should be explicitly checked. Check interstitial ad availability by using the following methods:

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.IsInterstitialAvailable();

OR

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.IsInterstitialAvailable(ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName);

PlaceholderName: enum of the placeholder (such as ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.Default, ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.MainMenu) from the ‘Placeholders’ tab in your app details of the ConsoliAds dashboard. No placeholder value is required if you do not have your own placeholders added.

Return value (boolean):

  • True if the ad is available
  • False if the ad is not available

Check Interstitial/Video Ad Clicked

To listen to the Interstitial ad click callback implement the following block of code.

In the Start() method of your script use the following code to attach your functions with ConsoliAds Interstitial Ad Clicked callback:

ConsoliAdsSDK.onInterstitialAdClicked += onInterstitialAdClicked;

Provide the following definition of the method to use the Ad Clicked callback:  

void onInterstitialAdClicked(object sender, ConsoliAdsSdkEventArgs e)    
{        
    Debug.Log("Sample: onInterstitialAdClicked called with featureId: " + e.featureId);
}

FeatureID is used to identify the In App feature clicked. 

NOTE: Please make sure that the placeholder is also added on the  dashboard before using

Show Interstitial/Video Ad

Add the following lines of code to show an interstitial ad in your game:

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.ShowInterstitial();

OR

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.ShowInterstitial(ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName);

** BEST PRACTICE: A common effective way to display ads is by calling loadInterstitial in onInterstitialAdClosed **

PlaceholderName: enum of the placeholder (such as ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.Default, ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.MainMenu) from the ‘Placeholders’ tab in your app details of the ConsoliAds dashboard. No placeholder value is required if you do not have your own placeholders added.

Display Rewarded Video Ad

Load Rewarded Ad

Showing rewarded video requires loading it beforehand. Use the following to load a rewarded ad:

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.LoadRewardedVideo();

OR

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.LoadRewardedVideo(ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName);

It is highly recommended to call LoadRewarded() as early as possible e.g. in the Start() method of a script to allow videos to be pre-loaded.

PlaceholderName: enum of the placeholder (such as ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.Default, ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.MainMenu) from the ‘Placeholders’ tab in your app details of the ConsoliAds dashboard. No placeholder value is required if you do not have your own placeholders added.

Check Rewarded Ad Availability

Despite having the ad load called, rewarded video availability should be explicitly checked. Check rewarded video ad availability by using following method:

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.IsRewardedVideoAvailable ();

OR

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.IsRewardedVideoAvailable (ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName);

PlaceholderName: enum of the placeholder (such as ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.Default, ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.MainMenu) from the ‘Placeholders’ tab in your app details of the ConsoliAds dashboard. No placeholder value is required if you do not have your own placeholders added.

Return value (boolean):

  • True if the ad is available
  • False if the ad is not available

Check Rewarded Ad Clicked

To listen to the Interstitial ad click callback, implement the following block of code

In the Start() method of your script use the following code to attach your functions with ConsoliAds Rewarded Video Ad Clicked callback:

ConsoliAdsSDK.onRewardedVideoAdClicked += onRewardedVideoAdClick;

Provide the following definition of the method to use the Ad Clicked callback:

void onRewardedVideoAdClick(object sender, ConsoliAdsSdkEventArgs e)
{
     Debug.Log("Sample: onRewardedAdClicked called with featureId: " + e.featureId);
}

FeatureID is used to identify the In App feature clicked. 

NOTE: Please make sure that the placeholder is also added on the  dashboard before using

Show Rewarded Video

Add the following lines of code to show a rewarded ad in your game:

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.ShowRewardedVideo();

OR

ConsoliAdsSDK.Instance.ShowRewardedVideo(ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName);

ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName: enum of the placeholder (such as ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.Default, ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.MainMenu) from the ‘Placeholders’ tab in your app details of the ConsoliAds dashboard. No placeholder value is required if you do not have your own placeholders added.

NOTE: Please make sure that the placeholder is also added on the  dashboard before using

Reward Users

In order to reward your user, a callback needs to be implemented with your lines of code to incentivize the user. 

In the Start() method of your script use the following code to attach your functions with ConsoliAds Rewarded Video Completed callback:

ConsoliAdsSDK.onRewardedVideoAdCompleted += onRewardedVideoCompleted;

Provide the following definition of the method to reward your users: 

void onRewardedVideoCompleted(object sender, ConsoliAdsSdkEventArgs e)
{
// Write your code to reward your user here
}

Display Banner Ad

To show banner ad you need to first create a ConsoliAdsBannerView object: 

ConsoliAdsSdkBannerView consoliAdsBanner;

Initialize the object as follows:

consoliAdsBanner = new ConsoliAdsSdkBannerView(ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsBannerSize.BANNER, ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsBannerPosition.Top);

ConsoliAdsBannerSize: enum of the Banner Size (such as ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsBannerSize.BANNER)

ConsoliAdsBannerPosition: enum of the BannerPosition (such as ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsBannerPosition.Top, ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsBannerPosition.Bottom)

Show Banner Ad

Now use the following code to display the banner:

consoliAdsBanner.ShowBanner();

OR

consoliAdsBanner.ShowBanner(ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName);

ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName: enum of the placeholder (such as ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.Default, ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName.MainMenu) from the ‘Placeholders’ tab in your app details of the ConsoliAds dashboard. No placeholder value is required if you do not have your own placeholders added.

Check Banner Ad Clicked

To listen the Interstitial ad click callback implement the following block of code

In the Start() method of your script use the following code to attach your functions with ConsoliAds Banner Ad Clicked callback:

consoliAdsBanner.onBannerAdClicked += onBannerAdClicked;

Provide the following definition of the method to use the Ad Clicked callback:

void onBannerAdClicked(object sender, ConsoliAdsSdkEventArgs e)
{
    Debug.Log("Sample: onBannerAdClick called with featureId : "+ e.featureId);
}

FeatureId is used to identify the In App feature clicked. 

NOTE: Please make sure that the placeholder is also added on the  dashboard before using

Hide Banner Ad

To hide Banner, use the following:

consoliAdsBanner.DestroyBanner();

NOTE: If the destroy banner function is not called it will be visible throughout the scenes.

Display NativeAd

Creating 3D NativeAd GameObject

If you are using 3D Native Ad Prefab then do the following steps:

  • Drag the 3D Native Ad Prefab from the ConsoliAdsSDK/Prefabs to the scene.
  • Adjust it where you want to show Native Ad.

If you are not using 3D Native Ad Prefab then do the following steps:

Note:  You must have to register every gameobject.

Every GameObject must have a Box Collider.

Please refer to Sample App for better understanding.

Creating 2D NativeAd GameObject

When integrating 2D Native ads please keep the following prerequisites in mind:

If you are using 2D Native Prefab then do the following steps:

  • Drag the Prefab to the scene.
  • Change the Order Layer to 10.
  • Adjust the View if needed.

If you are not using 2D Native Prefab , then follow the below steps:

  • Create a new Canvas in the scene.
  • You have to create a 2D Structure by adding following components on the new Canvas: 
    • Title Text (Type: Text )
    • SubTitle Text (Type: Text)
    • Description Text (Type: Text)
    • Icon Image (Type: Image)
    • Body Image (Type: Image)

Now your 2D Native object is ready to be used.

Active this NativeCanvasObject where you want to show.

Show Native Ad

Create the following game objects:

  1. Create a script “NativeAdManager”.
  2. Create the following GameObjects, a NativeAd view and a boolean value in your script
GameObject instantiatedNativeAd;
private ConsoliAdsNativeAdHelper nativeAdHelper;
public GameObject nativeAdGameObject;
public GameObject nativeAdPrefab;
public GameObject nativeAdContainer;
public ConsoliAdsSdkNativeAdView consoliAdsSdkNativeAdView;

public List nativeAdBodyImageGameObjects;
public GameObject nativeAdAdChoicesGameObject;
public GameObject nativeAdAdvertiserTextGameObject;
public GameObject nativeAdBodyTextGameObject;
public GameObject nativeAdCallToActionGameObject;
private bool nativeAdLoaded = false;

    3. Instantiate and show native ad through the following code:

instantiatedNativeAd = Instantiate(nativeAdPrefab, nativeAdGameObject.transform.position, nativeAdGameObject.transform.rotation, nativeAdContainer.transform);
nativeAdHelper = instantiatedNativeAd.GetComponent();
if (nativeAdHelper != null)
{
   nativeAdIconGameObject = nativeAdHelper.nativeAdIconGameObject;
   nativeAdAdChoicesGameObject = nativeAdHelper.nativeAdAdChoicesGameObject;
   nativeAdAdvertiserTextGameObject = nativeAdHelper.nativeAdAdvertiserTextGameObject;
   nativeAdBodyTextGameObject = nativeAdHelper.nativeAdBodyTextGameObject;
   nativeAdCallToActionGameObject = nativeAdHelper.nativeAdCallToActionGameObject;
   nativeAdTitleTextGameObject = nativeAdHelper.nativeAdTitleTextGameObject;
   nativeAdBodyImageGameObjects = nativeAdHelper.nativeAdBodyImageGameObjects;
   nativeAdIconGameObject = nativeAdHelper.nativeAdIconGameObject;
   nativeAdIconGameObject = nativeAdHelper.nativeAdIconGameObject;
   Debug.Log("NativeAdHelper is not null");
}
else
{
   Debug.Log("NativeAdHelper is null");
   return;
}
instantiatedNativeAd.SetActive(true);
consoliAdsSdkNativeAdView = new ConsoliAdsSdkNativeAdView();
SetupNativeAdCallbacks();
consoliAdsSdkNativeAdView.showNativeAd(ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName);

    4. Register all the Native Ads callbacks and in Native Ad Loaded callback set the boolean value to true.

private void SetupNativeAdCallbacks()
{
    consoliAdsSdkNativeAdView.onNativeAdClicked += ConsoliAdsSdkNativeAdView_onNativeAdClicked;
    consoliAdsSdkNativeAdView.onNativeAdClosed += ConsoliAdsSdkNativeAdView_onNativeAdClosed;
    consoliAdsSdkNativeAdView.onNativeAdFailedToLoad += ConsoliAdsSdkNativeAdView_onNativeAdFailedToLoad;
    consoliAdsSdkNativeAdView.onNativeAdLoaded += ConsoliAdsSdkNativeAdView_onNativeAdLoaded;
    consoliAdsSdkNativeAdView.onNativeAdShown += ConsoliAdsSdkNativeAdView_onNativeAdShown;
}

private void ConsoliAdsSdkNativeAdView_onNativeAdLoaded(object sender, ConsoliAdsSdkEventArgs e)
{
     Debug.Log("Sample: ConsoliAds NativeAdLoaded");
     nativeAdLoaded = true;
}

    5. In Update(), check for the boolean value if it’s loaded then show it.

if (nativeAdLoaded)
{
     nativeAdLoaded = false;
     if (nativeAdHelper != null)
     {
         consoliAdsSdkNativeAdView.RegisterNativeAd(nativeAdIconGameObject, nativeAdAdChoicesGameObject, nativeAdAdvertiserTextGameObject, nativeAdBodyTextGameObject, nativeAdCallToActionGameObject, nativeAdTitleTextGameObject, nativeAdBodyImageGameObjects);
     }
     else
     {
          Debug.Log("nativeAdHelper is null!");
     }
     Debug.Log("Sample NativeAd Register Called.");
}

    6.  Attach this script to any active gameobject and drag your native ad prefab or the native ad object you created on canvas to this script as reference.

Check Native Ad Clicked

To listen the native ad click callback implement

 private void onNativeAdClicked(object sender, ConsoliAdsSdkEventArgs e)
 {
      Debug.Log("Sample: NativeAd_OnNativeAdClickedEvent called with feature_id : " + e.featureId;
 }

Destroy Native Ad

To Destroy the Native Ad use the following piece of code:

 consoliAdsSdkNativeAdView.destroyNativeAd();

Display Icon Ad

Use the following steps to integrate icon ad :

  1. Create a simple UI Image Object on Canvas.
  2. Adjust its size position rotation according to your need.
  3. Create a script “IconAdManager”.
  4. Create a Gameobject, a boolean and CAMediatedIconAd. 
    ConsoliAdsSdkIconView consoliAdsSdkIconView;
public GameObject iconAdGameObject;
private bool iconAdLoaded = false; 
  5. To Load Icon Ad: 
    consoliAdsSdkIconView = new ConsoliAdsSdkIconView(ConsoliAdsIconAnimationType.SHAKE, true);
consoliAdsSdkIconView.showIcon(ConsoliAdsSDK.ConsoliAdsPlaceholderName);
  6. Register Icon Ad loaded callback and set the boolean value true. 
    consoliAdsSdkIconView.onIconAdLoaded += onIconAdLoaded;
    private void onIconAdLoaded(object sender, ConsoliAdsSdkEventArgs e)
{
   Debug.Log("Sample: ConsoliAds IconAdLoaded");
   iconAdLoaded = true;
}
  7. In Update(), check for the boolean value if it’s loaded then show it. 
    if(iconAdLoaded)
{
   iconAdLoaded = false;
   iconAdGameObject.SetActive(true);             consoliAdsSdkIconView.registerIconImageGameObject(iconAdGameObject);
}
  8. Attach this script to any active gameobject and drag your icon ad image object you created on canvas to this script as reference.

Check Icon Ad Clicked

To listen to the Immersive ad click event implement the following block of code

In the Start() method of your script use the following code to attach your functions with ConsoliAds Interstitial Ad Clicked callback:

consoliAdsSdkIconView.onIconAdClicked += onIconAdClicked;

Provide the following definition of the method to use the Ad Clicked callback:

private void onIconAdClicked(object sender, ConsoliAdsSdkEventArgs e)
{
     Debug.Log("Sample: onIconAdClicked called with featureId: " + e.featureId);
}

featureId is used to identify the In App feature clicked. 

Icon Ad is successfully integrated.

Display Immersive AdsTM

Please follow the steps to integrate Immersive Ads:

  • Right click in the hierarchy tab and from the drop down menu select ConsoliAds  -> ImmersiveAd. 
  • From the dropdown select the desired aspect ratio for ImmersiveAds. ConsoliAds supports five aspect ratios (1:1, 3:2, 4:3, 16:9, 18:6)

  • Once the ImmersiveAd gameobject is added into the hierarchy, it will load and display the Ad automatically.
  • While changing the size of the immersive ad the color of the immersiveAd notifies if the size of the immersiveAd will be supported or not. (Green color means that the size selected is supported.)
  • Another way to adjust the size of the immersiveAd is by using the scale. The scale will automatically maintain the aspect ratio.
  • Aspect ratio of the immersive is maintained by two different points that are:
  • Maintain aspect ratio by WIDTH  
  • maintain aspect ratio by HEIGHT

Note : By default the aspect ratio will be set by the WIDTH. You can change that by unchecking the checkbox on the inspector of the selected gameobject of the immersiveAd, in the AspectRatioHandler component.

  • ImmersiveAds are clickable if they are in the view of the Unity camera in a close distance. Once the ImmersiveAd is close enough and fully displayed on the screen it will start animating, showing the user that the ad is clickable(ClickMe button).
  • ImmersiveAd Audio is played whenever the user is in the effective area of the immersiveAd. Graphical representation has been added for the ease of the client so that while placing immersiveAd it is ensured that the audio of multiple ImmersiveAds don’t play at once.

  • ImmersiveAd contains both image and/or video and will refresh after 30 seconds.
  • ImmersiveAd will not play if the Time.TimeScale is 0 and video will be paused.
  • ImmersiveAd gives an impression after 2 seconds if the Ad is still being viewed after 2 seconds.
  • The impression and click of the immersiveAd will work as per the scale/size of the ImmersiveAd.

The Standards click/impression units measurement are :

  • 2-5 Scale / Size : 7 unit distance.
  • 6-10 Scale / Size : 14 unit distance.
  • 11-50 : 35 unit distance.
  • 51-100 : 50 unit distance.
  • 100+ : 100 unit distance.

Note : 1 unit in Unity is equal to 1 Meter so if the Ad is 2 meters in width and 5 meters  height the distance to make it clickable will be 7 meters and vice versa.

**NOTE: For better performance it is recommended to use maximum 5 immersive ads in one scene.**

Using Immersive Ad with Multiple Cameras

While using multiple cameras it needs to be ensured that “CAAssignImmersiveCamera” script is attached to the camera which is being used currently.
**You can attach the “CAAssignImmersiveCamera” script to multiple cameras but only one of the cameras should be enabled at a time.**

Immersive Ad Clicked Event

To listen to the Immersive ad click event implement the following block of code

In the Start() method of your script use the following code to attach your functions with ConsoliAds Interstitial Ad Clicked callback:

CAImmersiveAdScript.immersiveAdClicked += CAImmersiveAdScript_immersiveAdClicked;

Provide the following definition of the method to use the Ad Clicked callback:

private void CAImmersiveAdScript_immersiveAdClicked(object sender, ConsoliAdsSdkEventArgs e)
{
     Debug.Log("Sample: ImmersiveAd_onImmersiveAdClickedEventHandler with feature id : " + e.featureId);
}

Note : featureId is used to identify the In App Feature clicked. 

We need to attach Camera Script to Active Camera picture is required

Build and Run

Enable the Dev Mode checkbox in “ConsoliAds” prefab. Build and Run your project, this will sync your project settings with the application on the portal. There is no more Configure Server.

More About ‘Dev Mode’
