Hi Support Team, 

I am getting 400 responses while requesting ads in IMA SDK and not able to find why this is showing this 400 response. 

Can you please review the screenshot and URL and advise the issue?

Hi,

Thanks to getting back us

Based on the VAST tag you shared, the issue was with the sz (size) parameter format. You had used sz=400x300%257C640x480, which is incorrect due to the encoded pipe character. When passing multiple ad sizes, the correct format is sz=400x300|640x480 using a plain pipe (|) character. After making this change, the request works as expected. You can refer to the official documentation for more details on how to correctly pass multiple ad sizes.

Thanks,
