For the following reasons, be sure that the URL used for the playlist[].file is consistent with the media content registered with Google DAI for your videoID or assetKey:

If the DAI request fails, the video URL will play as a fallback.

Analytics will be attributed to correct media item.

Use the following steps to set up dynamic ad insertion for a single playlist item:

For a specific playlist item, define a daiSetting object with your Google account information.
- If you are displaying a video on demand (VOD), define cmsID and videoID
- If you are displaying a live stream, define assetKey.
If your content is protected, set the apiKey property within the daiSetting object.

In the advertising object, set "client": "dai".
