IMPORTANT! It is mandatory to select a list of ad units managed by Clickio on your site in the Line Item targeting.

We recommend that you always add all available ad units and then use other targeting criteria. However, if you know the exact position of the ad unit on your site (you can check the code on the page, match the ad unit ID and name on the Clickio Publisher Platform, or ask your Clickio account manager), then you can select that specific ad unit.

    • smart_position: smart-banner instance number (from 1 to 20),
    • unit_type: ad unit type as defined internally (smart / sticky / fixed),
    • unit_position: used for unit_type=fixed ad units in Prism mobile version (BelowTitle / AbovePost / BelowPost).
