Simulate traffic on a TinyTag
When a TinyTag is created, the API returns its ID.
This ID is used to create the URL that simulates traffic on this TinyTag.
Note
Which URL to call?
If your bidder is set up in the test environment, use this template:
https://ib-test.adnxs.com/ttj?id=(TINY_TAG_ID)&size=(WIDTHxHEIGHT)&debug_member=(YOUR_MEMBER_ID)
If your bidder in the test environment is only buying mobile inventory, use this template:
https://ib-test.adnxs.com/mob?st=mobile_app&id=(TINY_TAG_ID)&size=(WIDTHxHEIGHT)&debug_member=(YOUR_MEMBER_ID)
TT vs. TTJ
The element in the auction URL, /ttj
can also be set to /tt
.
/ttj
denotes a JavaScript tinytag (placement or ad tag).
/tt
denotes an iFrame tinytag (placement or ad tag).
We recommend testing both /tt
and /ttj
to ensure your creatives
Assuming all of the API calls in this section run successfully, running the TinyTag populated with your ID should make a Bid Request from the selling member to all bidders, requesting a bid and a creative sized for the TinyTag's parameters.
Please run the debug auction URL from within a web browser. This will show you the output of the auction and can assist you with troubleshooting your bidder's responses to an auction.
If you want to run a full auction, to generate notification requests, remove the debug_member=(YOUR_MEMBER_ID)
from the URL shown above. You will see a creative render in the browser and your bidder will receive notification requests to the notify_uri
location you specified using the Bidder Service.
Tip
Set objects to active
Make sure you've set your bidder object and bidder instance object to active
(using the Bidder Service and Bidder Instance Service, respectively).
Make sure your ready_uri
is responding with a '1'.
