Audio VAST Remote URI

This page explains how to add an Audio VAST remote URI creative: an audio ad hosted by a third party and delivered through its VAST tag. One thing to remember: an audio creative supports only an audio track, video creatives can’t be used, and the creative should not contain VPAID or OMID clients.

How to Create an Audio VAST Remote URI Creative

  1. Log in to your DSP account, go to Creative Sets, and click Add creative set.

Only de-select "Click through tracking" if you know that the main audio creative doesn't have a click-through URL inside the VAST XML (open the creative URL and search for "ClickThrough").

Summary

Audio VAST remote URI creatives are third-party audio VAST tags: create an Audio creative set, choose the Audio VAST remote URI sub-type, set the language and paste the tag.

Keep click-through tracking on unless the VAST XML has no ClickThrough URL.
