To display outstream video ads, you need a video ad unit that allows a video ad to run inside of it. You have the following options to display outstream video ads:
| Scenario | Outstream video display option |
|---|---|
You do not have your own outstream ad unit to display outstream video ads | You can use Index Exchange (Index)’s outstream video ad unit to display outstream video ads. We recommend this option, which is available in Prebid.js version 6.25 or later. We recommend this option. For more information about Index’s outstream ad unit, see Configure outstream video ads in Prebid.js using Index's outstream ad unit. |
You want to display outstream video ads using your own custom ad unit | You can use your custom video ad unit to display outstream video ads as long as it can support standard protocols like VAST and measurement frameworks like VPAID/OMID. |
You want to use a third party integration option such as JW Player or Vlyby to display outstream video ads | Your third-party provider displays outstream video ads.
