Requesting Native Ads – Android SDK without Helper Libraries

It is recommended to use the VMAX Helper Library.

Alternatively, you can use getter functions to get Ad Elements and then render Native Ad. Once the native ad is cached, success callbacks is received as adViewDidCacheAd() in sdk version below 3.6.0 and onAdReady() in sdk version 3.6.0 onwards.

To Fetch Native Ad always use only cacheAd().
showAd() or loadAd() apis are not supported for invoking Native Ads.

For your reference purpose, We have created VMAX Sample App for Native adspot. This app is open source and uploaded on Github where you can download and read example code for requesting Native Ads

Note: For all ad partners except AdMob follow below table.

Parameter	Recommended	Description
nativeAd.getTitle();	Yes	the title property of the ad
nativeAd.getDesc();	Yes	the description property of the ad
nativeAd.getCtaText();	Yes	the call to action title property of the ad
nativeAd.getRating();	Optional
nativeAd.getMediaView();	Yes	to be used only for Facebook and Vserv Ads
nativeAd.getNativeAdPartner();	Yes	to get Ad partner
nativeAd.getAdChoiceUrl();	Yes	to be used only for Facebook
nativeAd.getObjective();	Optional
nativeAd.getVastVideoTag();	Optional
nativeAd.getDesc2();	Optional
nativeAd.getPrice();	Optional
nativeAd.getDownloads();	Optional
nativeAd.getAdChoiceView();	Yes	getAdChoiceView() used only for Facebook. While using this Adchoice view of Facebook than ignore getAdChoiceUrl().It automatically handles click on it.
nativeAd.getNativeAdType();	Optional
nativeAd.getSalePrice();	Optional
nativeAd.getSponsored();	Optional
nativeAd.getLikes();	Optional
nativeAd.getPhone();	Optional
nativeAd.getAddress();	Optional
nativeAd.getDisplayurl();	Optional

nativeAd.getIcon().getUrl();	Yes
nativeAd.getIcon().getWidth();
nativeAd.getIcon().getHeight();

nativeAd.getImageMain().getUrl();
nativeAd.getImageMain().getWidth();
nativeAd.getImageMain().getHeight();

nativeAd.getImageMedium().getUrl();
nativeAd.getImageMedium().getWidth();
nativeAd.getImageMedium().getHeight();

nativeAd.getImageTile().getUrl();
nativeAd.getImageTile().getWidth();
nativeAd.getImageTile().getHeight();

nativeAd.getImageAdChoice().getUrl();
nativeAd.getImageAdChoice().getWidth();
nativeAd.getImageAdChoice().getHeight();

Additional notes for InMobi Native Ads

From InMobi version 6.0.0 (supported from VMAX Android SDK v3.5.19), InMobi returns a ‘screenshots’ element on their dashboard as shown in the accompanying image.

screenshots = {
aspectRatio = “1.91”;
height = 313;
url = “http://xyz.jpeg”;
width = 600;
};

screenshots = {

aspectRatio = “1.91”;

height = 313;

url = “http://xyz.jpeg”;

width = 600;

};

If you select an image with aspectRatio ‘1.91’, this is mapped to the ‘imageMain’ element of the Native Ad object. Thus, requesting for imageMedium will result in a nil value.
If you select an image with aspectRatio ‘1’, this is mapped to the ‘imageMedium’ & ‘imageTile’ elements of the Native Ad object. Thus, requesting for imageMain will result in a nil value.

As a best practice, you should always check if the requested element is nil or not and for non-nil, use the native ad element in rendering your custom native ad layout.

Ad Network Policies

In addition, you need to adhere to the policies shared by AdMob and Facebook here:

If using any ad network other than AdMob or Facebook, be sure to include an Ad symbol so that app users can identify that it’s an ad. The below example shows a test ad from VMAX having an icon, large image, title, CTA button and the ad attribution symbol in the top right.

Once all elements are assigned to Ad parentview and just when your Ad parentView is visible use below function to track impressions and clicks. No need to set any listener on Ad. This function is very important used only when native Ads rendering is without helper libraries.

// very important function used only when native Ads render without helper libraries.

Add vmax_custom_native_layout.xml in your Layouts

In this snippet, registerViewForInteraction() api is mandatory and is used to track impression and clicks. It should be called as shown below.

vmaxNativeAd.registerViewForInteraction(VmaxAdView adView, RelativeLayout vgroup, View view, List listview);

1	vmaxNativeAd.registerViewForInteraction(VmaxAdView adView, RelativeLayout vgroup, View view, List listview);

Parameters:

adView is mandatory for proper handling of Native Ads.
vgroup is main Ad parnetView and is compulsory to be of type RelativeLayout.
view is mandatory so as to set listener, it should be CTA view or any other Native Ad element view.
listview is Optional if click on multiple views required. If listview is provided than third argument View view should be parent of the view available in list.

Note: For AdMob AdChoice View icon, pass second parameter in above function that is Ad container Layout and keep top right space empty say 15px. VMAX SDK will handle to render AdMob Adchoice icon for AdMob.

In this snippet, registerViewForInteraction() api is mandatory and is used to track impression and clicks. It should be called as shown below.

vmaxNativeAd.registerViewForInteraction(VmaxAdView adView, ViewGroup vgroup, View view, List listview);

1	vmaxNativeAd.registerViewForInteraction(VmaxAdView adView, ViewGroup vgroup, View view, List listview);

Parameters:

adView is mandatory for proper handling of Native Ads.
vgroup is main Ad parnetView and it is mandatory.
view is mandatory so as to set listener, it should be CTA view or any other Native Ad element view.
listview is Optional if click on multiple views required. If listview is provided than third argument View view should be parent of the view available in list.

Make sure to handle Activity life cycle callbacks with VmaxAdview for proper functioning of Ads
