GoogleMobileAds Framework Reference

AI-generated Key Takeaways

• GADRTBAdapter facilitates communication between your bidding logic and the Google Mobile Ads SDK for real-time bidding.

• It enables the collection of signals, which are crucial data points used in the auction process to determine ad placements.

• The collectSignalsForRequestParameters:completionHandler: method is the primary way to provide these signals, and it's essential to implement it efficiently to avoid timeouts.

• Initialization of the adapter is done through the standard init method.

GADRTBAdapter

@protocol GADRTBAdapter <GADMediationAdapter>

Adapter that provides signals to the Google Mobile Ads SDK to be included in an auction.

• -init

  Returns an initialized RTB adapter.

  Declaration

  Swift

  init()

  Objective-C

  - (nonnull instancetype)init;

• -collectSignalsForRequestParameters:completionHandler:

  Asks the receiver for secure signals. Signals are provided to the 3PAS at request time. The receiver must call completionHandler with signals or an error.

  This method is called on a non-main thread. The receiver should avoid using the main thread to prevent signal collection timeouts.

  Declaration

  Swift

  func collectSignals(for params: RTBRequestParameters) async throws -> String

  Objective-C

  - (void)
      collectSignalsForRequestParameters:(nonnull GADRTBRequestParameters *)params
                       completionHandler:(nonnull GADRTBSignalCompletionHandler)
                                             completionHandler;
