Same correlator value for each ad break

[raphael-herblot]

Hello,

I have an issue with my ad breaks. I have a VMAP with 6 different ads : 2 pre-rolls, 2 mid-rolls, 2 post-rolls
Everything is working fine with my 2 pre-rolls, but when my video do the request for the 2 mid-rolls or the 2 post-rolls, the VAST response is empty.

I checked and I noticed that every ad has the same correlator value and this is why my 4 other ads have an empty VAST response.
I should have a different value for every ad break right ?

You can have a look into my current VMAP : VMAP link

Would you have any ideas to how I could have a different correlator value for each of my ad break ?
I use the IMA SDK, I think it should generate a random correlator value for each ad, but I might be wrong on this one.

Thank you in advance for your answer

Hello @raphael-herblot ,

The IMA SDK and Google Ad Manager expect the correlator value to be the same for all ad requests for the same page view. See this correlator documentation for more details.

Based on that, I think this is working as expected. This behavior isn't specific to the videojs-ima plugin, so if you have additional questions, please reach out on the IMA technical forum.

Thank you,
Jackson
