Prerequisites

Ensure that you correctly integrate Rewarded Video, Interstitial ads, or Banner ads into your application. Refer to the following platform-specific guides for integration instructions:

Step 1. Create a Meta account

  • First time setup
    • Go to Meta for Developers and register with your Meta account.
    • Follow the procedure and set your application name.
    • Click 'Register'.
  • Registered users
    • Sign into your Meta account.
    • On the right sidebar click on ‘My Apps’.
  • Choose your app

Step 2. Create Business

A Business is the top entity through which you can manage your business on Meta including Meta advertising and Audience Network monetization. To create your business go to Monetization Manager

Step 3. Create Property

A Property in Monetization Manager is a group of products with the same brand. If you have different products for different operating systems, platforms or devices, you can group them into a Property for combined reporting and management in Monetization Manager.
  1. Go to Monetization Manager
  2. Choose your business or create a new business
  3. Click Create Property
  4. Name your Property based on the brand for the group of apps or websites you'll be adding to it
  5. Click Create Property

Step 4. Choose your platform and display format

Platforms are the various types of products and surfaces you can monetize with Audience Network. After you created your property your next step is to add the platform you want to monetize.

Step 5. Create Ad Space

Ad Spaces help you organize ad placements in a way that accurately reflects what a person is doing when they see an ad in your app. To create an ad placement, you'll need to create an Ad Space first. You can create up to 4 Ad Spaces per platform.
  1. Go to Monetization Manager.
  2. Search for your Property in the search bar using your property name or property ID, then click on Manage Property next to the Property you want to create an Ad Space for.
  3. Select the Platform for where you want to create an Ad Space. If the Platform you want to use does not exist, click on Add Platforms (located on the upper right hand corner) to create it.
  4. Add a video and description of when your ad would be triggered. Click **Create Ad Space.
  5. Now that you've created your Ad Space, you can create ad placements by clicking on the edit icon and Create placement.

Step 6. Create ad placement

Audience Network offers different types of ad units. Each ad unit in your app or mobile website is identified using a unique placement ID.
  1. Go to Monetization Manager.
  2. Find and select the Property for which you want to create an ad placement. Click Manage Property on the right.
  3. Scroll down to the Placements section and click Create placement. You can also create ad placements by clicking on the edit icon and Create placement as mentioned on Step 5.5 above.
  4. Type in your placement name, select the Ad Space, select the ad Display format and add an optional description.
  5. Choose how you want to optimize your ad placement. The optimization determines how we run the auction for each impression on your app or site.
  6. Click Create placement to finish.

Add Placements to your app

  1. Go to Monetization Manager.
  2. Click on Managed property
  3. Click on Ad Spaces then scroll down to Placements, or filter to find the placement that you need
  4. In the Placement ID column click Get Code
  5. Copy the Placement ID until the underscore (_). You’ll need this later for the App ID parameter on LevelPlay
  6. Copy the entire Placement ID. You’ll need this later for the Placement ID parameter on LevelPlay

Step 7. Activate Meta Audience Network on the LevelPlay platform

Complete the following steps to activate Meta Audience Network as a mediated network on LevelPlay. You’ll be required to add the app ID parameter on the app level and the placement ID on the instance level.
  • Log into your ironSource account and go to ‘Monetize‘ > ‘Setup‘ > ‘SDK Networks‘.
  • Click on Manage Networks
  • Select Meta Audience Network from the list of available ad networks
  • Click Login with Facebook

  • Enable read Audience Network insights
  • Select the app where you'd like to run interstitial, rewarded video, or banner ads from Meta Audience Network
  • Select Meta Audience Network from the Setup list of Ad Networks, click on the Define icon and insert the App ID and Placement ID in the relevant fields. See step 6.
Click ‘Save’, you will then see Meta Audience Network as Active for the ad unit of choice on your Mediation Dashboard.

Connect a property to the logged-in user

  1. Go to Business settings
  2. Click Users then People in the side menu
  3. Search for the user you want to be linked to the relevant properties
  4. Click the 3 dots and then Add Assets
  5. In the pop-up, select Properties

  7. Under Full Control, toggle on Manage Property then click Save Changes
As long as your Meta developer account remains active, with at least 1 application generating impressions, no additional action is required on the platform If you’re asked to log in again because of a session timeout or for any other reason, follow these steps:
  • From the SDK Networks page, select Meta Audience Network from the list of available ad networks
  • Click Reset login
  • Repeat the login process outlined above
  • Ensure that you sign in with your approved Meta developer account

Add the Meta Audience Network adapter to your build

Continue your integration using native adapters for Android and iOS. If you are using Meta Audience Network's server-to-server callbacks and are leveraging the DynamicUserID parameter to verify AdRewarded events, you will see this parameter reflected in their server-side callbacks. In addition, you can also see this parameter in the LevelPlay server-to-server callbacks. You can now deliver Meta Audience Network Ads through the Unity LevelPlay Mediation platform.

Next steps

To leverage additional ad networks through Unity LevelPlay, integrate the adapters and follow our integration guides.
