I. Create a Campaign in Voluum

The first thing you need to do is to create a campaign in Voluum. This will provide you with a campaign URL that you will submit to RUNative in the next step. In order to do so, perform the following steps:

  1. Create an offer element. Read the Add an Offer to Voluum article to learn how to do that.
  2. (Optionally) Create a lander element. Read the Add a Lander Element article to learn more.
  3. Create a traffic source element. Voluum provides you with the RUNative traffic source template, so you can use it and skip most of the manual setup. In order to use this template, perform the following steps:

    1. In Voluum, go to Traffic sources.
    2. Click the Create button and select the Traffic source option from the drop-down menu.

    3. Select the RUNative template.
    4. Click the Next button. The New traffic source form will appear.

    5. You can change or adjust any option in the New traffic source form. Once you have done so, click the Save button.

  4. Create a campaign

    In Voluum, go to Campaigns, click the Create button and select the Campaign Simple or Campaign Advanced option from the drop-down menu.

    1. In the new campaign form, select the Private Workspace that you want this campaign to be assigned to from the Workspace drop-down menu.
    2. Select the RUNative traffic source that you have just created from the Traffic source drop-down menu.
    3. Provide a name for the campaign in the Campaign name text field.
    4. Define the cost model that you will use.
    5. (Optionally) Select a lander you have previously created from the Landers drop-down menu.
    6. Select an offer that you have just created from the Offers drop-down menu.
    7. Click the Save button.

    8. Click the Copy button next to the campaign URL to copy it to the clipboard and paste it to any text editing tool.

    9. Click the Done button.

Congratulations, you have now obtained a campaign URL.
