AdPlayerTag APIs - iOS
Obtaining AdPlayerTag Instance
Instances of AdPlayerTag
can be obtained in one of two ways:
Obtaining them right after the initialization (this is the earliest point at which the instance is available)
AdPlayer.initializePublisher(publisher) { result in
switch result {
case .success(let tag):
// tag instance available here
case .failure(let error):
// tag initialization failed
}
}
2. Requesting them from AdPlayer
AdPlayer.getTagWhenReady(tagId: tagId) { result in
switch result {
case .success(let tag):
// tag instance available here
case .failure(let error):
// tag initialization failed
}
}
3. In order to perform an action only if a tag is ready now and otherwise skip it, you may request the tag now if present using the following API
guard let tag = AdPlayer.getTagNowOrNil(tagId: tagId) else {
// no tag
}
A common use for this API is when launching interstitial ads.
Events
As the player is playing its content, the AdPlayerTag
emits relevant events describing the process.
To receive the events you should assign an observer that confirms to the AdPlayerTagEventsObserver
protocol
by one of the following methods:
Add an observer as part of the tag initialization process
Or add an observer to an instance of AdPlayerTag
after obtaining it using method 2 of the previous section

Configurations
While most of the configurations are available on the dashboard, the AdPlayerTag
provides some configurations to the player that can be changed in code. The configurations should be provided as part of the initialization process.
Some of the configurations also appear as assignable fields on the AdPlayerTag
and can be changed at any time while others can be provided only at initialization and cannot be changed later.
