Navigate to **Account** \> **API Tools** . Take note of your **Skey** and **Secret**. ![](https://developers.google.com/static/admob/images/mediation/mintegral/locating_api_key.png) ### Update your app-ads.txt [Authorized Sellers for Apps app-ads.txt](https://iabtechlab.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/app-ads.txt-v1.0-final-.pdf) is an IAB Tech Lab initiative that helps ensure your app ad inventory is only sold through channels you've identified as authorized. To prevent a significant loss in ad revenue, you'll need to implement an `app-ads.txt` file. If you haven't done so already, [set up an app-ads.txt file for your app](https://support.google.com/admob/answer/9363762). To implement `app-ads.txt` for Mintegral, see [How app-Ads.txt Can Help Fight Ad Fraud](https://www.mintegral.com/en/blog/how-app-ads-txt-can-help-fight-ad-fraud). ## Step 2: Set up Mintegral demand in AdMob UI ### Configure mediation settings for your ad unit ### Android For instructions, see step 2 in the guide for [Android](https://developers.google.com/admob/android/mediation/mintegral.md.txt#step-2). ### iOS For instructions, see step 2 in the guide for [iOS](https://developers.google.com/admob/ios/mediation/mintegral.md.txt#step-2). ### Add Mobvista/Mintegral to GDPR and US state regulations ad partners list > [!IMPORTANT] > **Important:** Verify that you have **Account Management** permission to complete the configuration for EU Consent and GDPR, US State regulations, and User Messaging Platform. See [Manage user access to your > account](https://support.google.com/admob/answer/2784628) for details. Follow the steps in [European regulations settings](https://support.google.com/admob/answer/10113004#adding_ad_partners_to_published_gdpr_messages) and [US state regulations settings](https://support.google.com/admob/answer/14125907) to add **Mobvista/Mintegral** to the European and US state regulations ad partners list in the AdMob UI. ## Step 3: Import the Mintegral SDK and adapter > [!NOTE] > **Note:** Failure to integrate the compatible Mintegral and Google Mobile Ads SDK for React Native versions might lead to build issues. In your project's root directory, install the Google Mobile Ads SDK for React Native mediation adapter for Mintegral. Complete the following: 1. Copy the Google Mobile Ads SDK for React Native adapter tar file from the `gma-sdk-react-native/adapters/mintegral/` directory into your project's `local_packages/` directory. If you don't have the `adapters` folder, see [Prerequisites](https://developers.google.com/admob/react-native/mediation/mintegral.md.txt#prerequisites). ```bash mkdir -p local_packages cp EXTRACT_DIR/gma-sdk-react-native/adapters/mintegral/gma-mediation-mintegral-0.1.0.tgz local_packages/ ``` Replace EXTRACT_DIR with the path to the directory where you extracted the archive. 2. Install the adapter package using your preferred package manager: ### npm ```bash npm install ./local_packages/gma-mediation-mintegral-0.1.0.tgz ``` ### yarn ```bash yarn add ./local_packages/gma-mediation-mintegral-0.1.0.tgz ``` 3. If you're building for Android, add the following repository to the `build.gradle` file in your project's `android` directory: ```groovy repositories { google() mavenCentral() maven { url = uri("https://dl-maven-android.mintegral.com/repository/mbridge_android_sdk_oversea") } } ``` ## Step 4: Implement privacy settings on Mintegral SDK ### EU consent and GDPR To [comply with the Google EU User Consent Policy](https://www.google.com/about/company/consentstaging.html), you must make certain disclosures to your users in the European Economic Area (EEA), the UK, and Switzerland, and obtain their consent for the use of cookies or other local storage where legally required, and for the collection, sharing, and use of personal data for ads personalization. This policy reflects the requirements of the EU ePrivacy Directive and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). You are responsible for verifying that consent is propagated to each ad source in your mediation chain. Mintegral React Native adapter version 0.1.0 and later supports passing GDPR consent signals from consent management platforms that integrate with IAB's Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF) to Mintegral SDK. For more information, see Mintegral's [Android](https://dev.mintegral.com/doc/index.html?file=sdk-m_sdk-android&lang=en#sdkprivacycompliancestatement) and [iOS](https://dev.mintegral.com/doc/index.html?file=sdk-m_sdk-ios&lang=en#sdkprivacycompliancestatement) SDK Privacy Compliance Statement documentation. ## Step 5: Add required code ### Android No additional code is required for Mintegral integration. ### iOS ### SKAdNetwork integration Follow [Mintegral's documentation](https://dev.mintegral.com/doc/index.html?file=sdk-m_sdk-ios&lang=en) to add the SKAdNetwork identifiers to your project's `Info.plist` file. ## Step 6: Test your implementation ### Enable test ads Make sure you [register your test device](https://developers.google.com/admob/react-native/test-ads.md.txt#enable_test_devices) for AdMob. To get Mintegral test ads for banners, interstitials, rewarded and native ad formats, Mintegral recommends using the App Keys, App IDs, Placement IDs and Ad Unit IDs provided in the [Mintegral Test ID page](https://dev.mintegral.com/doc/index.html?file=sdk-m_sdk-ios&lang=en#testid). > [!IMPORTANT] > **Important:** Disable test mode for AdMob and Mintegral before releasing your app. ### Verify test ads To verify that you are receiving test ads from Mintegral, enable [single ad source testing](https://developers.google.com/admob/react-native/ad-inspector#single_ad_source_testing) in ad inspector using the **Mintegral (Bidding) and Mintegral (Waterfall)** ad source(s). ## Error codes If the adapter fails to receive an ad from Mintegral, you can check the underlying error from the ad response using [`ResponseInfo`](https://developers.google.com/admob/react-native/response-info.md.txt) under the following classes: ### Android ```java com.mbridge.msdk com.google.ads.mediation.mintegral.MintegralMediationAdapter ``` ### iOS ```objective-c GADMediationAdapterMintegral ``` Here are the codes and accompanying messages thrown by the Mintegral adapter when an ad fails to load: ### Android | Error code | Domain | Reason | |---|---|---| | 100 | com.mbridge.msdk | The Mintegral SDK returned a failure callback. | | 101 | com.google.ads.mediation.mintegral | Invalid server parameters (e.g. Missing app ID or placement ID). | | 102 | com.google.ads.mediation.mintegral | The requested ad size does not match a Mintegral supported banner size. | | 103 | com.google.ads.mediation.mintegral | Missing or invalid bid response. | | 104 | com.google.ads.mediation.mintegral | Mintegral SDK returned a no fill error. | | 105 | com.mbridge.msdk | Mintegral SDK failed to initialize. | | 106 | com.google.ads.mediation.mintegral | An ad for the Mintegral slot is already loaded and is yet to be shown. | ### iOS | Error code | Domain | Reason | |---|---|---| | 101 | com.google.mediation.mintegral | Invalid server parameters (e.g. Missing app ID or placement ID). | | 102 | com.google.mediation.mintegral | Mintegral SDK returned a no fill error. | | 103 | com.google.mediation.mintegral | Mintegral SDK failed to show an ad. | | 104 | com.google.mediation.mintegral | The requested ad size does not match a Mintegral supported banner size. | #### Version 0.1.0 - Initial release. - Supports [Mintegral Android adapter version 17.1.61.1](https://github.com/googleads/googleads-mobile-android-mediation/blob/main/ThirdPartyAdapters/mintegral/CHANGELOG.md#version-171611). - Supports [Mintegral iOS adapter version 8.1.7.0](https://github.com/googleads/googleads-mobile-ios-mediation/blob/main/adapters/Mintegral/CHANGELOG.md#version-8170). - Built and tested with the Google Mobile Ads React Native Plugin version 0.1.0.
