Intégrer Meta Audience Network aux enchères

Note: Facebook Audience Network is now Meta Audience Network. See Meta's announcement for more information.

This guide shows you how to use the Google Mobile Ads SDK to load and display ads from Meta Audience Network using mediation, covering bidding integrations. It covers how to add Meta Audience Network to an ad unit's mediation configuration, and how to integrate the Meta Audience Network SDK and adapter into an Android app.

Supported integrations and ad formats

Key Point: Meta Audience Network only supports bidding ads. Waterfall mediation ad requests no longer serves.

The AdMob mediation adapter for Meta Audience Network has the following capabilities:

Integration
Bidding
Waterfall
Formats
Banner
Interstitial
Rewarded
Rewarded Interstitial
Native

Requirements

• Android API level 19 or higher

• Meta Audience Network adapter 5.10.0.0 or higher (latest version recommended)

• Latest Google Mobile Ads SDK

Step 1: Set up Meta Audience Network

Sign up and log in to the Business Manager Start page.

Click Get started then Create new account.

Fill out the required fields with your business details and click Next.

Create a property

After you've filled out the required information, you're prompted to create a property for your app. Enter the desired name of the property for your app and click Next.

Next, select Android as the platform to monetize.

Add your app details and click Next.

Set up your payment account by clicking Add a new payment account. You will be redirected to a new page to enter your payment information. Fill out the necessary details, then click Next.

Select Google AdMob as the Mediation platform, then click Create placement.

Select a format, fill out the form and click Create.

Select Banner for all banner sizes, including for 300x250. Meta Audience Network does not support the Medium Rectangle display format, but does support a flexible width banner with a height of 50, 90, or 250 when using the Banner display format.

Take note of the Placement ID.

Click Done.

Step 2: Configure mediation settings for your AdMob ad unit

You need to add Meta Audience Network to the mediation configuration for your ad unit. First sign in to your AdMob account.

Navigate to the Mediation tab. If you have an existing mediation group you'd like to modify, click the name of that mediation group to edit it, and skip ahead to Add Meta Audience Network as an ad source.

To create a new mediation group, select Create Mediation Group.

Enter your ad format and platform, then click Continue.

Give your mediation group a name, and select locations to target. Next, set the mediation group status to Enabled. Then click Add Ad Units, which will open up the ad unit selection overlay.

Associate this mediation group with your existing AdMob ad unit, then click Done.

You should now see the ad units card populated with the ad units you selected.

Add Meta Audience Network as an ad source

Under the Bidding card in the Ad Sources section, select Add Ad Source. Then select Meta Audience Network.

Next, enter the Placement ID obtained in the previous section and click Done.

Finally, click Save.

Rewarded ads

In the settings for your rewarded ad unit, provide values for the reward amount and reward type. Then, to ensure you provide the same reward to the user no matter which ad network is served, check the Apply to all networks in Mediation groups box.

If you don't apply this setting, the Meta Audience Network adapter defaults to a reward of type "" (empty string) with a value of 1. The Meta Audience Network SDK does not provide specific reward values for its rewarded ads.

For more information on setting reward values for AdMob ad units, see Create an ad unit.

Step 3: Import the Meta Audience Network SDK and adapter

Android Studio integration (recommended)

Add the following implementation dependencies with the latest versions of the Meta Audience Network SDK and adapter in the app-level build.gradle file:

repositories {
    google()
    mavenCentral()
}

...
dependencies {
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:22.0.0'
    implementation 'com.google.ads.mediation:facebook:6.13.7.0'
}
...

Manual integration

• Download the latest version of the Meta Audience Network SDK for Android. Extract the AudienceNetwork.aar under the AudienceNetwork/bin folder and add it to your project.

• Navigate to the Meta Audience Network adapter artifacts on Google's Maven Repository. Select the latest version, download the Meta Audience Network adapter's .aar file, and add it to your project.

Step 4: Additional code required

No additional code is required for Meta Audience Network integration.

Step 5: Test your implementation

See the Testing Audience Network Implementation guide for detailed instructions on how to enable Meta Audience Network test ads. You can then use ad inspector to verify if your implementation is correct.

Key Point: When testing, ensure that you have the Facebook app installed on the test device and be logged in with a valid Facebook login. See Meta's documentation for more details.

That's it! You now have a working mediation integration with Meta Audience Network.

Optional steps

Important: Please verify you have Account Management permission to complete configuration for EU Consent and GDPR, CCPA, and User Messaging Platform. To learn more please see the following new user roles article.

EU consent and GDPR

Under the Google EU User Consent Policy, you must ensure that certain disclosures are given to, and consents obtained from, users in the European Economic Area (EEA) regarding the use of device identifiers and personal data. This policy reflects the requirements of the EU ePrivacy Directive and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). When seeking consent, you must identify each ad network in your mediation chain that may collect, receive, or use personal data and provide information about each network's use. Google currently is unable to pass the user's consent choice to such networks automatically.

Please review Meta's guidance for information about GDPR and Meta advertising.

Add Facebook to GDPR ad partners list

Follow the steps in GDPR settings to add Facebook to the GDPR ad partners list in the AdMob UI.

CCPA

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) requires giving California state residents the right to opt out of the "sale" of their "personal information" (as the law defines those terms), with the opt-out offered via a prominent "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" link on the "selling" party's homepage. The CCPA preparation guide offers the ability to enable restricted data processing for Google ad serving, but Google is unable to apply this setting to each ad network in your mediation chain. Therefore, you must identify each ad network in your mediation chain that may participate in the sale of personal information and follow guidance from each of those networks to ensure compliance with CCPA.

Please review Meta's documentation for data processing options for users in California.

Add Facebook to CCPA ad partners list

Follow the steps in CCPA settings to add Facebook to the CCPA ad partners list in the AdMob UI.

Native ads

Some Meta Audience Network native ad assets don't map one-to-one to Google native ad assets. Such assets are passed back to the publisher in a bundle in the getExtras() method in NativeAd. Here's a code example showing how to extract these assets:

Example:

Java

Bundle extras = nativeAd.getExtras();
if (extras.containsKey(FacebookAdapter.KEY_SOCIAL_CONTEXT_ASSET)) {
    String socialContext = extras.get(FacebookAdapter.KEY_SOCIAL_CONTEXT_ASSET);
    ...
}

Kotlin

val extras = nativeAd.getExtras()
if (extras.containsKey(FacebookAdapter.KEY_SOCIAL_CONTEXT_ASSET)) {
   var socialContext = extras.get(FacebookAdapter.KEY_SOCIAL_CONTEXT_ASSET)
   ...
}

Using Meta Audience Network native ads without a MediaView

Meta Audience Network's native ad format requires rendering the MediaView asset. If you plan to render native ads without that asset, make sure to use Meta Audience Network's native banner ad format.

To use Meta Audience Network's native banner ads instead, you must:

• Select the Native Banner format when setting up Meta Audience Network.

• Use Meta Audience Network adapter 5.4.1.0 or higher.

Note: The adapter automatically loads the ad format you defined when setting up Meta Audience Network.

Ad rendering

The Audience Network adapter returns its native ads as NativeAd objects. It populates the following Native ads field descriptions for a NativeAd.

Field	Populated by Meta Audience Network adapter
Headline
Image	1
Body
App icon
Call to action
Advertiser Name
Star rating
Store
Price

¹ The Meta Audience Network adapter does not provide direct access to the main image asset for its native ads. Instead, the adapter populates the MediaView with a video or an image.

Impression and click tracking

The following table highlights when native ad impressions and clicks are recorded by the Google Mobile Ads SDK.

Impression recording	Click recording
1px of Meta Audience Network native ad asset on screen + asset rendering requirements	Meta Audience Network SDK callback

Meta Audience Network has specific asset rendering requirements in order for an impression to be considered valid, depending on whether you selected the Native or Native Banner format when setting up Meta Audience Network.

Meta Audience Network native format	Required asset	Required rendering class
Native	Media View	MediaView
Native Banner	App icon	ImageView

Caution: Meta Audience Network impressions are not recorded if the above asset rendering requirements are not met.

Error codes

If the adapter fails to receive an ad from Audience Network, you can check the underlying error from the ad response using ResponseInfo.getAdapterResponse() under the following classes:

com.google.ads.mediation.facebook.FacebookAdapter
com.google.ads.mediation.facebook.FacebookMediationAdapter

Here are the codes and accompanying messages thrown by the Audience Network adapter when an ad fails to load:

Error code	Reason
101	Invalid server parameters (e.g. missing Placement ID).
102	The requested ad size does not match a Meta Audience Network supported banner size.
103	The publisher must request ads with an Activity context.
104	The Meta Audience Network SDK failed to initialize.
105	The publisher did not request for Unified native ads.
106	The native ad loaded is a different object than the one expected.
107	The Context object used is invalid.
108	The loaded ad is missing the required native ad assets.
109	Failed to create a native ad from the bid payload.
110	The Meta Audience Network SDK failed to present their interstitial/rewarded ad.
111	Exception thrown when creating a Meta Audience Network AdView object.
1000-9999	The Meta Audience Network returned an SDK-specific error. See Meta Audience Network's documentation for more details.
