The purpose of this article is to guide publishers who want to add Google Ad Manager as an ad network for mediation with DT.
Google Ad Manager currently supports the following ad types:
- Banner

To integrate Google Ad Manager as a DT mediated network:
- Step 1: Retrieve Google Ad Manager parameters.
- Step 2: Add Google Ad Manager as a DT mediated network.
- Step 3: Add the Google Ad Manager SDK to your integration.
- Step 4: Test your integration.
Step 1. Retrieve Google Ad Manager Parameters
Before retrieving Google Ad Manager parameters, ensure that you have Google Ad Manager ad unit inventory that you want to mediate with DT. For more information about creating Google Ad Manager inventory, see the following Google Ad Manager articles:
- Create your Google Ad Manager Account.

To set up Google Ad Manager as a DT mediated network, locate the following Google Ad Manager parameters:
| PARAMETER | DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|
App ID |
Unique ID for your app in the Google Ad Manager. |
Ad Unit ID |
Unique identifier for the ad unit in Google Ad Manager. |
Bundle ID |
Unique identifier for your app in the store. |
For more information about how to locate Google Ad Manager parameters, see Find an app ID or ad unit ID. Once you locate the indicated Google Ad Manager parameters, copy and store these parameters in a text file to reference these values when you add the network to your app in the DT Console. Delete the text file once you finish adding the network in the DT Console.
Step 2: Add Google Ad Manager as a DT Mediated Network
Before you add Google Ad Manager as a mediated network in DT FairBid:

- Ensure that you set up a DT Placement for each Google Ad Manager ad type you want to mediate with DT.
