For VAST Video Tags, after selecting Size, you only set Creative Name and VAST Tag URL.

The rest of the parameters for video, Destination URL, etc. is handled inside the VAST Tag.

Video Creative statuses

New video creatives are shown with status

When you Checkout and pay, the status of your creatives changes from Draft to Under Review and a notification is sent to the publisher to review and approve your ad.

When the publisher starts the approval process, you will see your video status change from Under Review to Processing.

After your creative has been reviewed you will get a notification that your video is either Approved or Rejected. If rejected, you will see the reason for rejection. If approved, your video is shown to your audiences.

During the time your video is shown, the status is Active and you can see statistics updated daily.

Video creative error messages

In case your video file or VAST Tag does not meet the requirements, you will see a message describing the problem.

When this happens, you need to upload a different video file or provide a different VAST Tag.
