Then we authenticate by using `dfp_auth()`. Any existing cached token would be used or we will be prompted to authenticate via the browser. ```{r load-package, eval=FALSE} library(rdfp) options(rdfp.network_code = 123456789) dfp_auth() ``` ```{r auth, include = FALSE} library(here) library(rdfp) token_path <- here::here("tests", "testthat", "rdfp_token.rds") suppressMessages(dfp_auth(token = token_path, verbose = FALSE)) options_path <- here::here("tests", "testthat", "rdfp_options.rds") rdfp_options <- readRDS(options_path) options(rdfp.network_code = rdfp_options$test_network_code) ``` #### Setup Custom Labels for Items Custom labels are helpful for "tagging" DFP items with metadata that can later be used frequency capping, doing competitive exclusion or other specific actions. See the following link for Google's explanation on their uses: (https://support.google.com/admanager/answer/190565?hl=en&ref_topic=30224) ```{r, eval=FALSE} # this creates a label called "Auto - Competitive Exclusion" that we can add # to any line item or order that we might want to use to prevent from clashing # where two different car advertisers ads should not be shown at once. request_data <- data.frame(name="Auto - Competitive Exclusion", description=paste0("A label to prevent two different car ", "companies from showing ads together"), types='COMPETITIVE_EXCLUSION') request_data <- list('labels'=hypothetical_label) result <- dfp_createLabels(request_data) ``` #### Setup Custom Fields for Items Custom fields are helpful for "tagging" DFP items with metadata that can later be used filtering or reporting. See the following link for Google's explanation on their uses: (https://support.google.com/admanager/answer/2694303?hl=en) ```{r, eval=FALSE} # this creates an extra field on the CREATIVE entity type that denotes the time of # day that the creative typically runs. First we create the field, then populate # with potential options since it is a dropdown field. request_data <- data.frame(name='Timing', description='The time of day that this creative usually runs.', entityType='CREATIVE', dataType='DROP_DOWN', visibility='FULL') dfp_createCustomFields_result <- dfp_createCustomFields(request_data) request_data <- data.frame(customFieldId=rep(dfp_createCustomFields_result$id, 3), displayName=c('Morning', 'Afternoon', 'Evening')) dfp_createCustomFieldOptions_result <- dfp_createCustomFieldOptions(request_data) ``` #### Setup Custom Targeting Keys and Values DFP allows traffickers to create custom tags to better target line items on their site. For example, a certain section of the site or search term used by a visitor can be encoded as custom targeting keys and values that can later be used when creating orders and line items, and evaluating potential inventory. See the following link for Google's explanation on their uses: (https://support.google.com/admanager/answer/188092?hl=en) ```{r} # create the key unique_numb <- as.integer(runif(1,1,100000)) request_data <- list(keys=list(name=paste0('Test', unique_numb), displayName=paste0('TestKey', unique_numb), type='FREEFORM')) dfp_createCustomTargetingKeys_result <- dfp_createCustomTargetingKeys(request_data) dfp_createCustomTargetingKeys_result # create the values request_data <- data.frame(customTargetingKeyId=rep(dfp_createCustomTargetingKeys_result$id,2), name=c('TestValue1','TestValue2'), displayName=c('TestValue1','TestValue2'), matchType=rep('EXACT', 2)) dfp_createCustomTargetingValues_result <- dfp_createCustomTargetingValues(request_data) dfp_createCustomTargetingValues_result ``` ```{r cleanup2, include = FALSE} request_data <- list(customTargetingValueAction='DeleteCustomTargetingValues', filterStatement=list('query'=sprintf("WHERE customTargetingKeyId = %s", dfp_createCustomTargetingKeys_result$id))) res <- dfp_performCustomTargetingValueAction(request_data, as_df=FALSE) request_data <- list(customTargetingKeyAction='DeleteCustomTargetingKeys', filterStatement=list('query'=sprintf("WHERE Id = %s", dfp_createCustomTargetingKeys_result$id))) res <- dfp_performCustomTargetingKeyAction(request_data, as_df=FALSE) ```
