How to manage your ad units
Once you’ve added your app to your account, you can manage all your ad units settings from the Ad Units page. This article will take you through how to manage each ad unit’s settings so you can start monetizing with them.
To start monetizing with your selected ad units, you’ll need to integrate the ad unit into your code:
Select your app
- From the dropdown menu at the top of the Ad units page, select the app you want to manage. You’ll then see the ad units that are live, along with the following info:
- Status – active or paused
- Ad unit name
- Ad unit ID (beneath the ad unit name)
- Ad format
- Networks – The number of networks that the ad unit is configured for. Hover over the number to see the networks the ad units are configured for. Click on the number to be taken to the Instances page
- Mediation groups – The number of mediation groups the ad unit ID is configured for. Hover over the number to see the mediation groups associated with the ad unit. Click on the number to be taken to the Mediation management page

Create multiple ad units in LevelPlay
To create additional ad units:
- Click the Create ad unit button in the top right corner of the Ad units page
- Give the new ad unit a unique name, and select the ad format you want to create
- Choose if you want to set up the ad unit as new or if you want to duplicate settings from the same existing ad unit
- Click save, and the ad unit will appear on the Ad units page
Loading ads with specific ad units requires using the new APIs that require an ad unit ID as a parameter.
Follow the integration guides to start using multiple ad units in your app:
Minimum requirements: ironSource SDK 8.4.0
Pause and hide an ad unit
Click on the action button at the end of an ad unit’s row to:
- Edit the ad unit’s settings
- Add the ad unit to an A/B test
- Pause/Resume delivery of the ad unit
- Hide the ad unit from the set-up pages. Be aware that hiding the ad unit will not stop ad delivery, and you will still see it in your reports.

LevelPlay reward-based ad units support server-side events to notify you of rewards that must be granted to your users after successful ad completion events. Learn more about how to set your server-to server callbacks here.
