These errors occur when the Unity Ads SDK can't fetch ad content. If ads don't successfully load, they can't be shown, therefore the ad request won't be filled. Use this guide to quickly identify and fix issues that might occur when loading an ad.
Symptoms
When you try to load an ad using the Unity Ads SDK, the following error message is returned:This error message indicates that the ad load failed because the ad load request by the Unity Ads SDK to Unity's servers didn't receive a response within the expected time limit.[2] Unity Ads SDK ad load failed : Request timed out. Check your network connection and try again later.
Causes
Common reasons for this error include:- Weak network connectivity (for example, weak wi-fi, or offline device)
- Temporary network delay
- Server response delay
Resolution
To resolve this issue, ensure your device has a reliable internet connection and try loading the ad again later.Symptoms
When you try to load an ad using the Unity Ads SDK, the following error message is returned:This error message indicates that the ad load failed because the Unity Ads network was unable to complete an ad fill.[52100] Unity Ads SDK ad load failed : No ad fill available for the requested placement.
Causes
A reason for this error can be because the Unity Ads network was unable to complete an ad fill.注
Ad requests aren't guaranteed to be filled every time. Fill rates depend on region, campaign availability, and the advertising market price, which can fluctuate over time.
Resolution
If there's no ad fill and the ad fails to load, try reloading the ad later.If you're seeing consistently low fill rates with Unity Ads, consider setting up the app-ads.txt file (or confirming it's configured correctly). Many advertising partners will only bid on games that have correctly implemented anapp-ads.txtSymptoms
When you try to load an ad using the Unity Ads SDK, the following error message is returned:This error message indicates that the ad load failed because the SDK was not initialized before loading was attempted.[52101] Unity Ads SDK ad load failed : The Unity Ads SDK is not initialized. Initialize the SDK before loading ads.
Causes
Common reasons for this error include:- The SDK initialization method wasn't called before loading an ad
- The SDK initialization failed, which led to the load method never running
Resolution
To resolve this issue, ensure the Unity Ads SDK is initialized successfully before loading an ad.Symptoms
When you try to load an ad using the Unity Ads SDK, the following error message is returned:This error message indicates that the ad load failed because the placement ID used in your code doesn't match any placement defined for your Unity Ads project.[52102] Unity Ads SDK ad load failed : Placement not found. Use the correct placement ID from your Unity Ads Monetization dashboard.
Causes
Common reasons for this error include:- Case sensitivity or spelling typo for the placement ID
- The placement was never added in the Monetization dashboard
- The placement exists but for the other platform (for example, loading an iOS placement while testing an Android build)
- Using a Game ID for another app, so the placements don't correspond
Resolution
To resolve this issue, confirm the placement exists and is active in your Unity Ads Monetization dashboard, ensure you're using the correct platform-specific placement ID, and double-check spelling and case sensitivity.If you recently added a new placement, restart the app or clear the SDK cache. If you recently changed a placement ID, perform a clean rebuild to ensure the change is updated.注
Placements are defined per project and platform. Verify that both your Game ID and placement ID belong to the same Monetization dashboard configuration.
Symptoms
When you try to load an ad using the Unity Ads SDK, the following error message is returned:This error message indicates that the ad load failed because the SDK encountered an unexpected or malformed response while communicating with Unity's ad servers.[52103] Unity Ads SDK ad load failed : Internal protocol error occurred. Try again later.
Causes
Common reasons for this error include:- Malformed or incomplete server response
- The SDK couldn't parse the backend's protocol

- Using the wrong type of placement (for example, a waterfall placement is used for bidding)
- Setting the incorrect dashboard configuration to a different ad type than expected
- Having a platform mismatch where the placement type may be correct but it belongs to another platform
- Referencing a deleted or modified placement in the dashboard
Resolution
To resolve this issue, ensure in the Unity Ads Monetization dashboard that your placement's ad format matches the API call you're using, and ensure you're loading the correct platform-specific placement ID.Symptoms
