Hello

I am trying to run the Admob plugin for Unity (everything works interstitial banner etc) but I am not able to use native ads

With Plugin 7.2.0+
I get the error: "The ad slot cannot handle external impression events. You must be in the allow list to be able to report your impression events" and the plugin becomes unusable. This seems to be a general bug for all plugin users

With Plugin 7.1.0
The plugin works properly, and I am able to receive ads and all assets. When I click on one of the boxcolliders it redirects me correctly to the page BUT in the console appears:

Received log message: <Google:HTML> Invalid click coordinates detected. Click coordinate (222.28569, 16.000100000000003) should be positive and within the ad view boundary.

Unable to append parameter to URL: https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/aclk?ri=1&act=1&fbs_aeid=*URL*

What makes the click not valid and still not working too.

To add more information:

  • I'm using canvas space camera (overlay seems to disable the click event)
  • I tried all types of colliders (box3d, box2d...)
  • Disabled all canvas raycasts and other components (scalers, etc)
  • No matter the version of Unity used (2020, 2021, 2022)
Thank you for your help and your time

Hi,

 

Thank you for your response.

 

We received your sample app project, and was able to test it in our end. Upon checking, I was able to encounter the error of " Invalid click coordinates detected" in your sample app. However, when I've tried to import the version 7.2.0, I wasn't able to replicate the error with "The ad slot cannot handle external impression events". With the error for ad slot, since the Native ad formats are currently in beta, we recommend you to get added onto the allow list for this beta, kindly talk to your account manager.

 

On the other hand, let me share this to the rest of the team to further investigate the error. Rest assured that one of our team will reach out to you.

Hi medioblogger,

 

We have replicated the issue and have a fix scheduled to be included with the next release of the native plugin. We cant give an exact date for the update, but it will be released within the first quarter.

 

Hope this helps,
Nick
