In Yieldbird Platform, the final setting for a given ad request is taken from as low level as possible.
The gradation of the settings is the following:
This means that if a certain setting is set on e.g. Device and Domain level, the Device level setting will be used on a given ad request.
Example: Setting Prebid auction timeout per Layout
What will be the timeout setting used for an Ad unit from Domain a.com?
We have the following settings:
- Default Prebid Auction timeout (workspace): 1500ms
- Prebid Auction timeout set for a Domain a.com: 1200ms
- Prebid Auction timeout set for a Layout that contains the given Ad unit: 500ms
In this example, the Ad unit gets:
- 500ms timeout if the user enters from an URL that triggers the Layout that has Prebid timeout setting defined
- 1200ms timeout if the user enters from different URL
