SpringServe: Setup guide#

This guide explains how to collect data from SpringServe.

Introduction#

SpringServe is a video and connected TV (CTV) ad serving platform. The SpringServe connector ingests performance reports from SpringServe, enabling automated data fetches for campaign monitoring and optimization alongside your other data sources.

Limitations#

Collecting data from SpringServe comes with the following limitations:

  • Data at Hour granularity is only available for the last 48 hours. To collect data further back, use Day or Cumulative granularity instead.

  • Each report is limited to 500,000 rows. If your selected date range, dimensions, and metrics produce more rows than this, narrow your selection.

Prerequisites#

Before you start collecting data from SpringServe, perform all of the following actions:

  • Ensure you have a SpringServe user account with access to the data you want to fetch.

Creating a datastream to collect data from SpringServe#

The basics of creating a datastream to collect data from any data source are explained in our guide to Collecting data in Adverity. This guide contains information about the specific steps to create a datastream to fetch data from SpringServe.

Authorization: Allow Adverity to access SpringServe#

To set up a new authorization to fetch data from SpringServe, follow these steps:

  1. In the Authorization step of the datastream wizard, click Access SpringServe using your credentials.

  2. In Email, enter the email address for your SpringServe account.

  3. In Password, enter your SpringServe password.

  4. Click Authorize.

As a result, Adverity has access to SpringServe using the credentials you provided.

Configuration: Choose the data you want to collect from SpringServe#

To choose what data to collect and customize the SpringServe datastream configuration, follow these steps:

  1. (Optional) Rename your datastream.

  2. In Dimensions, select the dimensions to include in your data extract. You must select at least one dimension.

    Note

    If you select an ID dimension, such as Campaign ID, Adverity automatically includes the matching name field, such as Campaign Name, in your data extract.

  3. In Metrics, select the metrics to include in your data extract. You must select at least one metric.

  4. In Interval, select the time granularity for the report: Hour, Day (default), or Cumulative.

  5. In Timezone, select the timezone to use for the collected data. The default is UTC.

As a result, Adverity fetches data from SpringServe according to the configuration you set.
