AdMob testing key

[Alex Erne]

I remember when I started using AdMobs there was a testing key in one of the packages I used at the time. And as time goes and old/obsolete packages are deleted from my system, so also that testing key...

Anyone still knows where to find/get that testing key? I really need it because of an upcoming project where I want to implement a lot of extra options (get rewards for watching a daily video ad and such - is that even allowed?) which I need to test if they work as intended..

Hi Alex,

I assume that you mean the Device ID, which is you can use to add as a testing device to only load test ads. To get this - 

• For Android, you need to build the app on your device and open up Android Studio and look into the logcat. On boot of the app, the SDK would log the connected device's ID, which you can use while making the AdRequest here.
• The same goes for iOS, where you would get your connected Device ID, when you launch the app with Xcode.

The format would be like  - addTestDevice("XXXX - YOUR DEVICE ID - XXXXX");

Thanks,

Thanks Veer.

One more question though. The YOUR DEVICE ID you're referring to, that's the SystemInfo.deviceUniqueIdentifier (from .NET/C#) or can I just drop ANY string there that I'd like?

nvm... got it working with the SystemInfo.deviceUniqueIdentifier in place there.
