Integration Types
AscendX fits into your app in one of the ways below. Most publishers start with the custom adapter for the mediation platform they already use.
Mediation adapters
Add AscendX as a custom network inside your existing mediation. Your mediation keeps running the waterfall, and AscendX competes in it through the line items you configure.
| Mediation | Adapter | Android | iOS | Unity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AppLovin MAX | Dynamic Adapter | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Google AdMob | Dynamic Adapter | ✓ | ✓ | |
| Unity LevelPlay V9+ | Dynamic Adapter | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Unity LevelPlay V8 | Dynamic Adapter | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
Dynamic fetching
Dynamic adapters let a single AscendX bid serve several line items: line items with fetch: true request a
fresh bid, and the others reuse the cached bid with no extra network call. Each dynamic adapter guide ends
with a recommended line-item setup.
Unity SDK
| Integration | Use it when |
|---|---|
| Unity SDK Integration (SDK 1.x) | You want full control: fetch AscendX demand, compare its price with your mediation and notify AscendX of wins and losses yourself. |
| LevelPlay Backfill Example (SDK 2.x) | LevelPlay stays your primary source and AscendX fills the ad breaks LevelPlay cannot. |
