Tag Variables

Owned by Matteo Beccati
Last updated: Aug 03, 2018

Passing variable values to Invocation tags.

Revive Adserver's Site - Variable delivery rule allows banners to be targeted to named variable values. 

The table below shows the different way to pass in a named variable (userType) and value (premiumUser) by invocation tag type.

Changes from the default tag are highlighted in bold red.

Naturally, more than one variable may be passed into Revive Adserver via the same method - simply add more named variable/value pairs to the invocation tag as required.
