Setup

This section shows how to configure your Prebid.js integration to work with the Glimpse module.

Prerequisites

Before you start to configure Glimpse, you will need to build a prebid.js file with the Glimpse module included, and include both gpt.js and prebid.js in the head of each page with supply. An example of a typical pair of script tags might be:

<script
  async
  src="https://securepubads.g.doubleclick.net/tag/js/gpt.js"
></script>

<script
  async
  src="https://<PUBLISHER_DOMAIN>/prebid.js"
></script>

Bid Requests

Our adapter captures the following values in the params block of each bid request:

Name Scope Type Description Example
placementId Required string A unique identifier associated with a publisher and ad unit, provided by the Glimpse Publisher Portal when registering a unit ‘glimpse-placement-id’
keywords Optional Record<string, any> Audience targeting data (applies to the single ad unit) { sticky: true }

Example

const units = [{
    code: "ad-unit-0",
    mediaTypes: {
        banner: { sizes: [[300, 250]] },
    },
    bids: [{
        bidder: "glimpse",
        params: {
            placementId: "glimpse-placement-id",
            keywords: {
              sticky: true,
            },
        },
    }],
}]

Bidder Config

Our adapter captures the following values in the glimpse block of the BidderConfig object:

Name Scope Type Description Example
demo Optional boolean Triggers Glimpse to respond with dummy bids (defaults to false) true
account Optional number Your Glimpse account id 1234
demand Optional string The target demand source (defaults to ‘glimpse’) ‘xandr’
keywords Optional Record<string, any> Audience targeting data (applies to all ad units) { sticky: true }

Example

pbjs.que.push(() => {
  pbjs.setBidderConfig({
    bidders: ["glimpse"],
    config: {
      glimpse: {
        demo: true,
        account: 1234,
        demand: "glimpse",
        keywords: {
          "language": "en",
        },
      },
    },
  })

  ...
})

FAQs

Can I test my setup without a Publisher Portal Account?

Yes, you can test your setup by setting demo: true in the glimpse block of the BidderConfig object. This will trigger Glimpse to respond with randomly-generated bids for all bid requests you make to Glimpse.

Can you provide additional support?

Of course! You can check the Glimpse Prebid Adapter documentation, here, or reach out to us at publisher@glimpseprotocol.io.
