Android Google Ad Manager (GAM) Mediation Adapter supports all display.io ad units.

Google Ad Manager/ display.io ad units mapping:

	display.io	GAM
	Interscroller	Banner
	Headline	Banner
	Interstitial	Interstitial
	Infeed	Banner
	Medium Rectangle	Banner
	Banner	Banner

To set it up:

1. Add the adapter to your project:

Edit your project’s build.gradle file in order to declare our maven repository:

 repositories {
    google()
    mavenCentral()
    maven { url "https://maven.display.io/" }
 }

Add the following dependencies to your app-module’s build.gradle file:

implementation ‘com.brandio.ads:sdk:4.7.8’
implementation ‘com.brandio.ads:google-ads-adapter:4.7.8'

Follow guide to initialize DisplayIO SDK.

2. Create new Company in Admin – Companies section, choose “Other company” and turn on “Mediation” toggle.

3. Create a new Yield Group (Banner or Interstitial) and add Yield Partner (DisplayIO) to the Yield Group. Link created Yield Group to the ad unit you want to mediate. If you require more instruction on this please consult the link below: https://support.google.com/admanager/answer/7390828

4. Add Yield Partner to Yield Group and define a Custom  Event using settings:

Define Custom Class Name:

com.brandio.ads.adapters.googleads.DisplayIOCustomEvent

Define  JSON formatted string as Parameter where put your <APP_ID> and <PLACEMENT_ID>. Both can be found on display.io platform.

{"appID" : "6494", "placementID" : "6430"} //example

5. Create a new ad unit and specify the newly created network as a source. Disable auto-refreshing option.

6. Make sure that DisplayIO network has a higher priority than any other sources (usually Google adds its own source by default).

7. Use Banner or Interstitial tutorials to get ads from Google Ad Manager.

8. Interscroller ad unit support additional customisation. You can set ad unit behaviour using next parameters:

{"appID" : "6494", "placementID" : "6430", "isReveal" : false , "showHeader" : false, "showTapHint" : false} //example

Note: above parameters are optional and has true value by default.

9. Deep customisation is also possible for Interscroller as well as for others ad units. To customise ad unit on placement level retrieve Placement object after DIO SDK initialisation:

Placement placement = 
     Controller.getInstance().getPlacement(placementId);
