Feature Additions
Revenue Per Second Optimization
SpringServe allows you to select the optimization metric that best fits your particular use case.
When using the revenue per second optimization metric, we prioritize your demand based on their RPM divided by the duration of the ad. Employing this optimization strategy allows for selection of the demand that will give you the highest revenue per second, which means that you can serve more ads and generate more revenue in a single broadcast call.
We recommend using this metric for your pod supply tags.
Macro Overrides
You can now set macro overrides on both supply and demand tags in SpringServe. When you set a macro override on a tag, SpringServe will populate the macro with your specified value or a mapped value.
In the Advanced section of the settings tab, clicking +Macro Override will reveal your options.
Due to inconsistencies between systems, you may want to override app information using the app name, app bundle, or app store url macros. The value inputted below the selected macro will be passed to your demand partner in place of the original macro’s value. SpringServe will also pass the value when the macro is not replaced.
You can also replace your custom keys with macro overrides. These keys are created on the Targeting page. When you select Custom Key, a dropdown of your SpringServe keys will appear. If the key is free, enter the override value. If the key is predefined, the SpringServe will retrieve the override value based on the key.
For example, the Genre map key has the following mapping:
When the macro has the value “ca”, SpringServe will replace it with the value ‘Comedy’ in the request we pass to the demand partner.
Core Improvements
Custom VAST Extensions
Custom VAST extensions allow you to append a VAST extension to the VAST response. In the Advanced section of a demand tag you can click the +Custom VAST Extension button to set the name and value of the extension.
For demand that runs on VAST only supply, any extensions added to the demand tag will be displayed in the vast response for the ad(s) that the demand tag returns.
Note that this feature is not available for DC demand tags.

Pod Metrics
While you cannot define pod settings on a DC supply tag, underlying demand may return a pod through a DC supply tag. We now display pod metrics for both managed and DC supply in reporting.
Alerts
SpringServe is fully TCF 2.0 compliant. We expect to receive a consent string for all traffic coming in from the European Union and if it is not there we will strip Device IDs and IP addresses from the demand request.Additionally, we provide an option to obfuscate the IP address for all GDPR flagged requests in the Advanced section of the supply tag page. You could choose to obfuscate IP for a COPPA flag as well.
