ConsoliAds Unity Plugin Integration (for v.11.x.x & above)

Getting Started

This documentation will help you integrate ConsoliAds Mediation Unity plugin to get instant access to the best ad networks around the globe for optimized mobile ad analytics and earnings.

A nominal size increase of 4 MB is expected when the following ad networks are integrated; Admob, Unity and ConsoliAds.

In case you are updating to v11.x.x from older versions of ConsoliAds, please see section ‘Updating from Older Versions’ and proceed to ‘Ready to Code’ show

Before you proceed to integrate, make sure you have:

Registered at ConsoliAds (https://portal.consoliads.com)
Logged in to the ConsoliAds dashboard (https://portal.consoliads.com)

Updating from Older Versions

NOTE: You can skip this step if you are integrating ConsoliAds plugin for the first time

Mandatory steps to follow

Before starting to develop on ConsoliAds Unity Plugin 11.x.x, please make sure to:

Completely remove already integrated ConsoliAds: use uninstall ConsoliAds option from your Unity editor if available in your older integrated version Or completely remove relevant files according to the respective plugin documentation
Remove all errors from the Unity project: failure to do so otherwise will not let the prefab refresh and you may still see the old inspector values from the previous SDK. There is no more a Configure Server button on Unity in this SDK
Go through the 11.x.x complete documentation: thoroughly read the new documentation as a lot has been changed to faster implement the new level of ease
Updated Unity Inspector: note that the new SDK only requires Dev Mode, User Signature and Platform configurations in the unity prefab inspector as shown below:

NOTE: Configure Server is NO MORE REQUIRED

The apps details of the versions older than 11.x.x appear on the ConsoliAds dashboard as follows:

Once you develop on the latest version and run your build on the DEV mode, your ConsoliAds dashboard will be updated to the latest mediation features as follows:

Please note that you will be able to add placeholders as per the SDK ENUMs once the dashboard is updated.

Create an App

NOTE: You can skip this step if you’ve already created your app on ConsoliAds dashboard

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

Download & Import SDK

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

Add Prefab to your Scene

In your project explorer, go to “Assets\ConsoliAds\Prefab” or search for “ConsoliAds”
Drag and drop ConsoliAds prefab into your first scene.
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)
App Version name: the identification Version (present in player settings) of your project
App Version code: the Bundle Version Code of your project
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)
userSignature: string to identify the user according to his role and rights provided on the ConsoliAds dashboard
- 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
- Copy the required user signature for the above initialize argument
Platform: enum to specify the build platform such as PlatForm.Google, PlatForm.Apple, PlatForm.Amazon

Ready to Code

Plugin Initialization

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

ConsoliAds.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:

ConsoliAds.Instance.LoadInterstitial();

ConsoliAds.Instance.LoadInterstitial(PlaceholderName);

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

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:

ConsoliAds.Instance.IsInterstitialAvailable();

ConsoliAds.Instance.IsInterstitialAvailable (PlaceholderName);

PlaceholderName: enum of the placeholder (such as PlaceholderName.Default, PlaceholderName.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

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

Show Interstitial Ad

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

ConsoliAds.Instance.ShowInterstitial();

ConsoliAds.Instance.ShowInterstitial(PlaceholderName);

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

Display Static Interstitial Ad

To show an Image Only interstitial ad, enable Static Interstitial option on your desired placeholder from the App Details->Placeholders & Ads section as shown below:

Display Rewarded Video Ad

Load Rewarded Ad

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

ConsoliAds.Instance.LoadRewarded();

ConsoliAds.Instance.LoadRewarded(PlaceholderName);

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.

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:

ConsoliAds.Instance.IsRewardedVideoAvailable ();

ConsoliAds.Instance.IsRewardedVideoAvailable (PlaceholderName);

Return value (boolean):

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

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

Show Rewarded Video

ConsoliAds.Instance.ShowRewardedVideo();

ConsoliAds.Instance.ShowRewardedVideo(PlaceholderName);

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. ConsoliAds mediation implements a single callback regardless of any ad network used.

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

ConsoliAds.onRewardedVideoAdCompletedEvent += onRewardedVideoCompleted;

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

public void onRewardedVideoCompleted(PlaceholderName placeholderName)

{

// Write your code to reward your user here

}

Display Banner Ad

To show banner ad you need to first create a ConsoliAdsBannerView object which can be initialized as:

ConsoliAdsBannerView consoliAdsBannerView = new ConsoliAdsBannerView();

Show Banner Ad

Now use the following code to display the banner:

ConsoliAds.Instance.ShowBanner(consoliAdsBannerView);

ConsoliAds.Instance.ShowBanner(consoliAdsBannerView, PlaceholderName);

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

Hide Banner Ad

To hide Banner, use the following:

ConsoliAds.Instance.HideBanner(consoliAdsBannerView);

//Add note if the hide banner is not called it will be visible throughout the scenes.

NOTE: NATIVE AD AND APP OPEN ADS ARE SUPPORTED SEPARATELY. YOU CANNOT USE BOTH ADS IN THE SAME APPLICATION.

Display 3D Native Ad

ConsoliAdsBannerView object can also be initialized according to the following function definitions:

Using custom size

AdSize size = new AdSize (300,250);

ConsoliAdsBannerView consoliAdsBannerView = new ConsoliAdsBannerView( size );

Using a custom position

AdPosition position = new AdPosition (100 , 200);

ConsoliAdsBannerView consoliAdsBannerView = new ConsoliAdsBannerView( position  );

Using a custom size and position

AdSize size = new AdSize (300,250);

AdPosition position = new AdPosition (100 , 200);

ConsoliAdsBannerView consoliAdsBannerView = new ConsoliAdsBannerView( size  , position  );

Show/Hide Native Ad programmatically

In order to manually manipulate the native ad, remove the script attached with the ‘ConsoliAdsNative’ prefab.
Create a game object variable in your script.
Attach variable with the prefab that you have attached in your scene.

Show Native Ad Using ConsoliAds:

ConsoliAds.Instance.ShowNativeAd(GameObject nativeGameObject, PlaceholderName placeholderName);

Hide Native Ad Using ConsoliAds:

ConsoliAds.Instance.HideNative();

Show Multiple Icon Ads through Prefab

To show multiple Icon Ads, make sure you know all the steps required to display a single Icon Ad. Follow the below mentioned additional steps to display multiple Icon Ads:

Search ‘ConsoliAdsIconAd’ from assets and drag it into Canvas.
To duplicate or add multiple icon ads, select ‘ConsoliAdsIconAd’ in the scene and duplicate it by using the key combination command+D (or control+d on windows) as shown in figure: Point 1.
You can change the X value of prefab (figure: Point 2), by dragging the red arrow horizontally, according to your placement need to show the icon ad.
You can change the Y value of prefab (figure: Point 3), by dragging the red arrow vertically, according to your placement need to show the icon ad.
To show IconAd you need to select the Placeholder Name for each IconAd prefab. (figure: Point 4)
Every prefab has its own script. You just need to add prefab and select the Placeholder Name, icon ad will be automatically shown when the prefab initiates.

Show Multiple Icon Ads Programmatically
