I. Setting up Integration

In order to integrate, do the following steps:

  1. In Voluum, go to the AUTOMIZER module.
  2. Go to the Traffic sources tab.

  3. Click the Add traffic source button.

  4. Click the Add integration link under the NewsBreak traffic source.

  5. Provide your API key.

  6. Click the Add integration button.

Your accounts are now integrated.

Voluum Note: With the full API traffic source integrations, the cost information passed via the integration will OVERRIDE any cost value set in a campaign setup in Voluum. Analogically, if you have turned on cost estimations, they will also override cost settings set in a campaign form. Without cost estimations, values passed in a cost token will be used between cost updates. When an update occurs, it will replace values passed in a token.
