Google IMA and DAI (iOS)
Enable Google IMA and Google DAI ad requests in your iOS app
If you are not using Google DAI or Google IMA to serve your ads, skip to Schedule VAST ads.
The JWX SDK for iOS integrates several ad client SDKs that you can use to request ads:
- Google DAI
- Google IMA
To use a supported ad client, you must add its dependency to your app. After meeting the prerequisites below, you can add the dependency using Swift Package Manager (SPM) or manual installation.
Prerequisites
| Ad Client | Requirements |
|---|---|
| Google DAI | All the JWX iOS SDK requirements Google's Ad Manager 360 Advanced |
| Google IMA | All the JWX iOS SDK requirements |
