To access this page click on Creatives while on an Ad's Summary Page.
The Creatives tab lists all the creatives associated with the current ad. When the creative file properties are collapsed to a single row, only the summary data for that creative file is displayed. To see all properties, click the right arrow. If a creative file does not have a media file uploaded or URL defined, it appears in orange.

Description |
|
Creative Name |
(Required) We suggest choosing a unique name. |
|
Start and End Date |
The start and end dates are required fields. These fields default to the ad start and end dates (first flight start date and last flight end date). Note: It is possible to pick start and/or end dates where there are no active flights, which will prevent the creative from playing. In order to be played on a certain day, that day needs to be in an active flight and be within the creative start and end date. |
|
Weighting |
When the Weighting field is set to Even, the creatives will be selected evenly with the other creatives. When the Weighting field is set to Custom, the value in the Weighting field is a relative weighting compared to other creatives. |
|
Status |
The status can either be Enabled or Paused. A paused creative is removed from ad selection, and the remaining creatives are selected evenly or in proportion to their relative weighting. |
|
Tracking URL |
Enter one or more URLs for 3rd party tracking services, if you are using them. You can click on "Add 3rd Party Ad Tracking Macros" to see a selection of macros you can use in building your tracking URL if you have not been provided one by the client. |
|
Companion Banner |
Add a companion banner, if you have one. |
|

Upload a media file to use as the creative. You may also enter a VAST or VPAID URL via the VAST Url tab. |
