Extra data

Bidon SDK goes beyond standard ad integration by offering the ability to pass extra data (key, value pairs) with each ad request. This feature allows you to enhance your ad targeting, analytics, and reporting capabilities, giving you greater control and flexibility over your advertising campaigns.

SDK Level Extra​

SDK enables you to attach SDK-level data to your ad requests. This means you can include specific information related to the SDK configuration, version, user or any other relevant details that help you monitor and optimize your SDK usage.

// Set extras values
BidonSdk.setExtraValue("SOME_STRING_VALUE", for: "SOME_STRING_KEY")
BidonSdk.setExtraValue(10.00, for: "SOME_NUMERIC_KEY")
BidonSdk.setExtraValue(true, for: "SOME_BOOLEAN_KEY")

// Remove previous value
BidonSdk.setExtraValue(nil, for: "SOME_KEY_TO_REMOVE")

// Get extras
let extras: [String: AnyHashable]? = BidonSdk.extras

AdType Level Extra​

SDK also allows you to include ad type-specific data with your ad-requests. Whether you're dealing with banner ads, interstitials, rewarded videos, you can provide additional context or attributes associated with that particular ad type.

// Set extras values
adObject.setExtraValue("SOME_STRING_VALUE", for: "SOME_STRING_KEY")
adObject.setExtraValue(10.00, for: "SOME_NUMERIC_KEY")
adObject.setExtraValue(true, for: "SOME_BOOLEAN_KEY")

// Remove previous value
adObject.setExtraValue(nil, for: "SOME_KEY_TO_REMOVE")

// Get extras
let extras: [String: AnyHashable]? = adObject.extras
