This week’s platform improvements are a cut above the rest!
Dear smartxers,
While the cryptocurrency connoisseurs of the world were busy mining for Bitcoin, your smart, dedicated, (and good looking) Product Marketing Team bravely spent all night doing some mining of our own ⛏️. Deep in the trenches of Jira, we were able to dig up some of the best platform updates — dusted and polished just for you!
These are some gems that Supply, Demand, and ATV teams will find extra fascinating 💎🤩!
We upgraded our Flashtalking transcoding service from a custom integration to the Flashtalking Standard API. This will give us the opportunity to be at the forefront of Flashtalking’s cutting-edge technology. This improvement also lifts restrictions in campaign management that previously limited creatives from being assigned to more than one campaign.
It is now possible to copy Line Item Bundles in the Direct Campaign editor. Just head over to the Line Item / Bundle tab, select the bundle, hover over the copy icon, and click, click, click away! (Ok, not that fast 😉). Each copied bundle will be inactive by default and labeled with ‘COPY of’ so you don’t have to worry about your excessive clicking ruining a campaign.
Users often shift booked impressions between line items within Auto-Stop bundles during a campaign flight. If the sum of the booked impressions for each line item are less than the total booked impressions for the line item bundle, a warning icon appears to signal that the line item bundle is underbooked. To drive this message home, a new dialogue box will appear once users select Save, giving users a friendly reminder to just use a calculator next time.
It’s a thing of the past! Similar to the macro replacement feature in smaracd, cachebuster macros that are present in third-party tracking or creative URLs will be automatically replaced with the smartclip macro in smartx.
While we aimed to have this macro replacement feature apply to all creatives, we may have missed one in the platform. If we missed one, please let us know, then you can claim your prize once the offices are open again 🎁.
The following dimensions are now available in smartx Reporting as well as the reporting API:
Yours in smartx updates and shining bright like a diamond,
smartclip Product Marketing Team
