VAST Tag Contains

Learn what details are needed when using VAST Tags.

Within the media library, you can create VAST tags. When doing so, the tag details will need to contain the following information:

  • ID Number – which cannot be changed
  • Name – which can be changed on the left side of the screen, by clicking the red “Rename” button
  • Media Type – select whether this is a linear video ad, non-linear banner ad, or 3rd part VAST URL
  • Video File URL – enter the video file URL or upload a video by clicking on the upload icon
  • Destination URL – enter the destination click or URL link for the ad
  • Video Duration – set the amount of time the ad will play for

There are also advanced features available, which are enabled by clicking the corresponding checkboxes. These features are:

  • Skippable
  • Video Scalable
  • Maintain Aspect Ratio

You can also select the delivery type (progressive or streaming), input the video bitrate, or enable up to five companion ads – as shown above.
