Ad Filtering Options
- Justin Shackelford
In your Ad Editor, you will have access to edit the Source Settings for your ad. After assigning a data source, you are able to add filters via selecting “Add Filter Preset”.
Make sure to name your preset before proceeding with filters. This preset can be applied to any ads that you create in the future.
Each individual product criteria is defined by a single filter group. Within each filter group, attributes are added and stacked to create unique filter combinations.
Example: You may want your ad to contain new Nissan Sentras. So, within your first filter group, you might add the attributes of “Condition contains New” and “Model contains Sentra”.
Since we’ve added both of these attributes to the Filter Group, both criteria must be met in order for a product to appear in the ad.
Your attributes will depend on your data source fields. If you would like to filter for a field that is currently missing from your data source, please contact our support team on the best way to add it.
After deciding on filters, you have the option to tell the system how you want it to prioritize sorting. Under each of the Filter Groups, there will be an option to Order Data.
An ad does not have to be limited to a single Filter Group. New Filter Groups can be added to define new products, or existing Filter Groups can be edited. Adding additional filter groups will add additional products into the video ad while also setting a pattern in which these products appear.
Once you are satisfied with your filter choices, you can save as a draft or hit the “Save” button.
After submission, you will be able to preview your inventory selections and verify that your filters were set up properly. To do this, hit the Preview Source Data button.
