GoogleMobileAds Framework Reference

  • GADErrorCode is an enum representing error codes for the Google Mobile Ads SDK (GAD).

  • These error codes provide specific reasons for failures within the ad request and delivery process, such as invalid requests, network issues, and server errors.

  • Mediation-related error codes offer insights into issues encountered with ad network adapters and their responses.

  • Some errors, like GADErrorAdAlreadyUsed and GADErrorApplicationIdentifierMissing, highlight usage constraints and setup requirements for ad requests.

  • Developers can utilize these error codes to diagnose and handle ad-related problems in their applications, ensuring a smoother ad experience.
