This article introduces the different parts of the Ad Tag Details page to help you find your way around the Wowza Video user interface.
Note: You’ll use this page only if you use VAST or SSAI ad schedule in Wowza Video. Ad tags for Google Ad Manager DAI are handled directly in Google Ad Manager.
Note: The SSAI ad schedule feature is currently offered under limited availability, meaning the functionality is available to select Wowza Video users. If you need this functionality, please email us at customerservice@wowza.com.
The Ad Tag Details page helps you to see the following details of your created ad tag:
- Name – A short, descriptive identifier for the ad tag that differentiates it from other ad tags.
- URL – The full URL of the VAST adTag you received from your ad network partner.
- Timeout (ms) – The ad timeout measures the time the player will wait for an ad to be returned from the ad server before starting the feature clip. A higher value may increase the chances of an ad fill if your ad server does waterfalling/redirects, but a value that's too high could impact user experience.
You can edit your ad tag through the Ad Tag Details page.
