Vungle

Keep using the platform integration guides for SDK installation and ad loading:

• Android integration guide
• iOS integration guide

For iOS-specific Vungle adapter requirements, see the Vungle Adapter page.

​

Overview

Use the following values:

• Vungle App ID in CloudX app mapping
• Vungle Placement ID in CloudX ad-unit mapping
• CloudX app_key and CloudX ad unit identifiers in app code

CloudX uses the bidder name Vungle in the dashboard. If you see Liftoff branding in external network materials, it refers to the same network here. CloudX collects Vungle bidder tokens internally, so you do not need to fetch Vungle bidder tokens in your app code.

​

Step 1. Complete Vungle-side setup

1. Sign in to your Vungle or Liftoff Monetize publisher account.
2. Add the app you want to monetize.
3. Copy the Vungle App ID for that app.
4. Create placements for each format you want to use.
5. Copy each placement ID.
6. Complete Vungle review and payout setup before expecting live demand.

​

Step 2. Enable Vungle in CloudX

Go to Operations -> Bidder Configuration and make sure Vungle is enabled for your account. If Vungle is disabled, CloudX will not request bids even if your mappings are correct.

​

Step 3. Configure your CloudX app

Go to Inventory -> Apps and create or open the app that matches your mobile application. Also copy the CloudX app_key from the app details page. Use the CloudX app_key in Android or iOS code.

​

Step 4. Configure CloudX ad units

Go to Inventory -> Ad units and add the mapping below for each eligible ad unit.

• Treat Vungle Placement ID as required on both platforms.
• Match the placement to the correct CloudX ad-unit format.
• Use a separate placement for each CloudX ad unit or format as needed.

​

Step 5. Add Vungle line items

Create line items for bidder Vungle on each CloudX ad unit where Vungle should compete.

• Use bidder Vungle
• Match the line item to the correct ad format
• Repeat the setup for each ad unit where Vungle should bid

​

Step 6. Finish app integration

Use the CloudX platform guides and the iOS Vungle adapter page:

• Android integration guide
• iOS integration guide
• Vungle Adapter page

In app code:

• Initialize CloudX with the CloudX app_key
• Load ads using CloudX ad unit identifiers
• Do not pass Vungle App IDs or Placement IDs into app code
• For Interstitial and Rewarded ads, call show() only after the ad is ready

​

Step 7. Test and validate

1. Enable test mode for your device in CloudX.
2. Build and run the app with the CloudX app_key and the correct CloudX ad unit identifiers.
3. Request an ad from each mapped ad unit.
4. Confirm that the ad loads and that Vungle participates or wins where expected.

​

Troubleshooting

​

Vungle is not bidding

Check the following first:

• Vungle is enabled in Operations -> Bidder Configuration
• The app has a valid Vungle App ID
• The ad unit has a valid Vungle Placement ID
• A Vungle line item exists for the ad unit

​

Vungle bids but the ad does not render

Check the following:

• Your app is using the CloudX app_key, not a Vungle ID
• Your app is loading the intended CloudX ad unit
• The placement belongs to the correct Vungle app and format
• On iOS, the requirements from the Vungle Adapter page are complete

​

The placement looks correct but loads still fail

The mobile adapters require a valid Vungle Placement ID at load time. Re-check the ad-unit-level placement mapping in CloudX.
