Intégrer une ligne à la médiation (bêta)

This guide shows you how to use the Google Mobile Ads SDK to load and display ads from Line using AdMob Mediation, covering waterfall integrations. It covers how to add Line to an ad unit's mediation configuration, and how to integrate the Line SDK and adapter into an iOS app.

The dashboard interface for Line uses Japanese text for its labels, buttons, and descriptions. The screenshots in this guide have not been translated. In this guide's descriptions and instructions however, labels and buttons are translated with their English language equivalents in parentheses.

Optional steps

Network-specific parameters

The Line adapter supports an additional request parameter which can be passed to the adapter using the GADMediationAdapterLineExtras class. This class includes the following properties:

adAudio
Specifies the default sound start state of banner, interstitial and rewarded ads.

Here's a code example of how to create an ad request that sets these parameters:

Swift

import LineAdapter
// ...

let request = GADRequest()
let extras = GADMediationAdapterLineExtras()
extras.adAudio = GADMediationAdapterLineAdAudio.unmuted
// ...
request.register(extras)

Objective-C

#import <LineAdapter/LineAdapter.h>
// ...

GADRequest *request = [GADRequest request];
GADMediationAdapterLineExtras *extras = [[GADMediationAdapterLineExtras alloc] init];
extras.adAudio = GADMediationAdapterLineAdAudioUnmuted;
// ...
[request registerAdNetworkExtras:extras];

Using native ads

Ad rendering

The Line adapter populates the following Native ads advanced field descriptions for a GADNativeAd.

Field Assets always included by Line adapter
Headline
Image
Body
App icon 1
Call to action
Star rating
Store
Price

1 For native ads, the Line SDK does not provide an app icon asset. Instead, the Line adapter populates the app icon with a transparent image.

Error codes

If the adapter fails to receive an ad from Line, you can check the underlying error from the ad response using GADResponseInfo.adNetworkInfoArray under the following classes:

GADMediationAdapterLine

Here are the codes and accompanying messages thrown by the Line adapter when an ad fails to load:
