Methods


addEventListener

addEventListener(type: google.ima.AdEvent.Type, listener: ((event: AdEvent) => void), optCapture?: boolean, optHandlerScope?: object): void
Adds a listener for ad events.
Parameters
type: google.ima.AdEvent.Type The type of event to listen for.
listener: ((event: AdEvent) => void) A function called each time an event of this type occurs.
Optional optCapture: boolean Deprecated and a no-op; retained for backward compatibility.
Optional optHandlerScope: object Deprecated: Listener scope object. Use arrow functions or bind listener instead.
addEventListener(type: AD_ERROR, listener: ((event: AdErrorEvent) => void), optCapture?: boolean, optHandlerScope?: object): void
Adds a listener for ad error events.
Parameters
type: AD_ERROR The type of event to listen for.
listener: ((event: AdErrorEvent) => void) A function called each time an event of this type occurs.
Optional optCapture: boolean Deprecated and a no-op; retained for backward compatibility.
Optional optHandlerScope: object Deprecated: Listener scope object. Use arrow functions or bind listener instead.

collapse

collapse(): void
Collapse the current ad. This is no-op for HTML5 SDK.

configureAdsManager

configureAdsManager(content: object, adsRenderingSettings?: AdsRenderingSettings): void
Sets required parameters for getting a reference to this AdManager from the AdsManagerLoaded event.
Parameters
content: object Object that plays back publisher's content.
Optional adsRenderingSettings: AdsRenderingSettings Optional settings to control the rendering of ads.

destroy

destroy(): void
Removes ad assets loaded at runtime that need to be properly removed at the time of ad completion and stops the ad and all tracking.

discardAdBreak

discardAdBreak(): void
If an ad break is currently playing, discard it and resume content. Otherwise, ignore the next scheduled ad break. For example, this can be called immediately after the ads manager loads to ignore a preroll without losing future midrolls or postrolls. This is a no-op unless the ad request returned a playlist or VMAP response.

expand

expand(): void
Expand the current ad. This is no-op for HTML5 SDK.

focus

focus(): void
Puts the focus on the skip button, if present. If not present, focus is put on interactive elements, including icons or interactive creatives.

getAdSkippableState

getAdSkippableState(): boolean
Returns true if the ad can currently be skipped. When this value changes, the AdsManager fires an AdEvent.SKIPPABLE_STATE_CHANGED event.
Returns
boolean True if the ad can currently be skipped, false otherwise.

getCuePoints

getCuePoints(): number[]
Returns an array of offsets in seconds indicating when a scheduled ad break will play. A preroll is represented by 0, and a postroll is represented by -1. An empty array indicates the ad or ad pod has no schedule and can be played at any time.
Returns
number[] List of time offsets in seconds.

getRemainingTime

getRemainingTime(): number
Get the remaining time of the current ad that is playing. If the ad is not loaded yet or has finished playing, the API would return -1.
Returns
number Returns the time remaining for current ad. If the remaining time is undefined for the current ad (for example custom ads), the value returns -1.

getVolume

getVolume(): number
Get the volume for the current ad.
Returns
number The volume of the current ad, from 0 (muted) to 1 (loudest).

init

init(width: number, height: number, viewMode: ViewMode, videoElement?: HTMLVideoElement): void
Call init to initialize the ad experience on the ads manager.
Parameters
width: number The chosen width of the ad.
height: number The chosen height of the ad.
viewMode: ViewMode The chosen view mode.
Optional videoElement: HTMLVideoElement The video element for custom playback. This video element overrides the one provided in the AdDisplayContainer constructor. Only use this property if absolutely necessary - otherwise we recommend specifying this video element while creating the AdDisplayContainer.

isCustomClickTrackingUsed

isCustomClickTrackingUsed(): boolean
Returns true if a custom click tracking element is being used for click tracking on the current ad. Custom click tracking is only used when an optional click tracking element is provided to the AdDisplayContainer, custom playback is used, and the current ad is not an AdSense/AdX ad.
Returns
boolean Whether custom click tracking is used.

isCustomPlaybackUsed

isCustomPlaybackUsed(): boolean
Returns true if a custom video element is being used to play the current ad. Custom playback occurs when an optional video element is provided to the AdDisplayContainer on platforms where a custom video element would provide a more seamless ad viewing experience.
Returns
boolean Whether custom playback is used.

pause

pause(): void
Pauses the current ad that is playing. This function will be no-op when a static overlay is being shown or if the ad is not loaded yet or is done playing.

removeEventListener

removeEventListener(type: google.ima.AdEvent.Type, listener: ((event: AdEvent) => void), optCapture?: boolean, optHandlerScope?: object): void
Removes a listener for ad events. The listener must be equal by reference to the one previously passed to addEventListener.
Parameters
type: google.ima.AdEvent.Type The type of event for which to remove the listener.
listener: ((event: AdEvent) => void) The function to remove as a listener.
Optional optCapture: boolean Deprecated and a no-op; retained for backward compatibility.
Optional optHandlerScope: object Deprecated: Listener scope object. Use arrow functions or bind listener instead.
removeEventListener(type: AD_ERROR, listener: ((event: AdErrorEvent) => void), optCapture?: boolean, optHandlerScope?: object): void
Removes a listener for ad error events. The listener function must be equal by reference to the one previously passed to addEventListener.
Parameters
type: AD_ERROR The type of event for which to remove the listener.
listener: ((event: AdErrorEvent) => void) The function to remove as a listener.
Optional optCapture: boolean Deprecated and a no-op; retained for backward compatibility.
Optional optHandlerScope: object Deprecated: Listener scope object. Use arrow functions or bind listener instead.

resize

resize(width: number, height: number, viewMode: ViewMode): void
Resizes the current ad.
Parameters
width: number New ad slot width.
height: number New ad slot height.
viewMode: ViewMode The new view mode.

resume

resume(): void
Resumes the current ad that is loaded and paused. This function will be no-op when a static overlay is being shown or if the ad is not loaded yet or is done playing.

setVolume

setVolume(volume: number): void
Set the volume for the current ad.
Parameters
volume: number The volume to set, from 0 (muted) to 1 (loudest).

skip

skip(): void
Skips the current ad when AdsManager.getAdSkippableState() is true. When called under other circumstances, skip has no effect. After the skip is completed the AdsManager fires an AdEvent.SKIPPED event. AdsManager.skip() only skips ads if IMA does not render the 'Skip ad' button.

start

start(): void
Start playing the ads.

Developers must call AdDisplayContainer.initialize() first.

stop

stop(): void
Stop playing the ads. Calling this will get publisher back to the content.

updateAdsRenderingSettings

updateAdsRenderingSettings(adsRenderingSettings: AdsRenderingSettings): void
Updates the ads rendering settings. This should be used specifically for VMAP use cases between ad breaks when ads rendering settings such as bitrate need to be updated.
Parameters
adsRenderingSettings: AdsRenderingSettings The updated ads rendering settings.
