Springserve has partnered with Streaming to enable seamless sharing of publisher content metadata. To facilitate this integration, the content metadata must be provided in a CSV or RSS file format, which needs to be added in the Streaming platform for access by Springserve.
For detailed instructions on how to import CSV files or add RSS feeds, please refer to the following guide [insert link or reference here]. This will walk you through the necessary steps to ensure that your content metadata is properly configured and accessible.
How to acces the meta data in Springserve:
Once the data is available in streaming, have your account manager enable the content ingestion
feature setting in your Springserve account. With this flag, your account will be enabled to call an API to fetch the meta data associated to the content_id={{CONTENT_ID}}
value that must be present in each request.
Setting up content targeting in Springserve can be found here: Content Attribute Targeting
The following content attributes will be targeted on based on the value of the content_id macro.
content_id content_title content_series content_season content_episode Duration content_categories rating content_genre content_producer_name network_name channel_name content_livestream production_quality cuepoints
Using the below sample row of meta data:
seatId | seriesName | videoTitle | contentRating | producer | genre | network | channel | content_id |
78910 | Bluey | Hats | TVG | Brumm | kids | Net1 | ch-12 | 12345 |
If the request contains content_id
parameter, call the API and populate all of the meta data associated to the content_id in outbound requests for ads
