Keywords

Keywords allow key-value pairs to enable real-time targeting of line items.

Set Keywords

To set keywords, you will need to first create a Mediation ad object, then use the setKeyword method to add key-value keywords pair.

// Create an Ad object.
ChartboostMediationInterstitialAd interstitialAd = ChartboostMediation.GetInterstitialAd(PLACEMENT_INTERSTITIAL);

ChartboostMediationRewardedAd rewardedAd = ChartboostMediation.GetRewardedAd(PLACEMENT_REWARDED);

ChartboostMediationBannerAd bannerAd = ChartboostMediation.GetBannerAd(PLACEMENT_BANNER, BANNER_SIZE);

// Set a Keyword
this.interstitialAd.SetKeyword("i12_keyword1", "i12_value1");
this.rewardedAd.SetKeyword("rwd_keyword1", "rwd_value1");
this.bannerAd.SetKeyword("bnr_keyword1", "bnr_value1");

Remove Keywords

To remove keywords, use the removeKeyword method and pass the key you would like to remove.

// Remove Keyword.
this.interstitialAd.RemoveKeyword("i12_keyword1");
this.rewardedAd.RemoveKeyword("rwd_keyword1");
this.bannerAd.RemoveKeyword("bnr_keyword1");

📘

Note

Keywords has restrictions for setting keys and values. The maximum characters allowed for keys is 64 characters. The maximum characters for values is 256 characters.

Setting User Identifier

The user identifier property is found on the ChartboostMediation class. This property may be set anytime after SDK initialization.

ChartboostMediation.SetUserIdentifier("user");

Setting Fullscreen Placements Custom Data

The custom data property is found on the IChartboostMediationFullscreenAd instance, and has a maximum character limit of 1000 characters. In the event that the limit is exceeded, the customData property will be set to null.

Custom data may be set at any time before calling Show().

var loadResult = await ChartboostMediation.LoadFullscreenAd(loadRequest);
...
// after checking proper load result
_fullscreenAd = loadResult.Ad;
var bytesToEncode = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("{\"testkey\":\"testvalue\"}");
var encodedText = Convert.ToBase64String(bytesToEncode);
_fullscreenAd.CustomData = encodedText;
