¶ Before You Start
Make sure you have your MyBid account active before creating a campaign on the side of BeMob.
¶ BeMob Settings
As MyBid is already listed in BeMob templates all the required fields will be completed automatically when this traffic source is selected.
To add MyBid from templates:
- Press Traffic Sources.
- Click on New from Template.
- Type MyBid into the search bar.
- Select MyBid.
- Click on Next.
If you are an experienced BeMob user or have tracking background, you can simply click Save button to store the traffic source for your future campaign.
However if you are at the stage of getting familiar with BeMob or even tracking in general, we strongly recommend to read this guide till the end.
The traffic source template consists of two sections: Traffic Source Details with postback settings and Parameters.
¶ Postback Settings
Setting up a postback between tracker and traffic source is extremely important if you require to pass the conversions data to your traffic source.
The MyBid pre-configured postback on the side of BeMob looks the following way:
https://server.bidder-postback.tcb.infrapu.sh/api/v1/postback?cost={payout}&click_id={externalId}
{externalId} is BeMob dedicated token which will pass the ID of conversion.
{payout} will forward the amount of revenue received from the conversion.
Always make sure the {externalId} token is available in the postback URL as this token is required to pass the ID of conversion from BeMob to MyBid.
On the side of BeMob Approved status should be selected to pass conversions data to the side of MyBid.
¶ Parameters
The list of parameters and tokens supported with MyBid are already preconfigured in the template.
These parameters and tokens are required to transfer the additional details on traffic to your report in tracker, e.g. source IDs, creative IDs, ad types etc.
If you pass the data on conversions to the MyBid side, make sure that External ID field is completed.
If you wish to receive the cost data automatically from MyBid, it is required to assure that cost token is available in the template.
All the tokens available with traffic source settings will be automatically added at the end of Campaign URL once you select MyBid in campaign settings.
The data will be available in report on Custom parameters and can be used for further optimization and targeting of your campaigns.
Press Save to store the traffic source settings for your future campaign.
