Activate First Look

Before you activate

---

You can only use First Look with your primary linked Ad Exchange account. If you don't have a linked account, contact your account manager or learn how to link accounts to Ad Manager.

You must be an administrator for your Ad Manager network to link accounts and to activate First Look. If you are not an administrator, the settings below are unavailable. Learn more about user role permissions.

To activate First Look, you must set the primary linked Ad Exchange account as the "default for Dynamic Allocation" for each inventory type you use in Ad Manager. For example, if you only have Display inventory type, then you only need to set the Ad Exchange account for one of them. If you have multiple inventory types associated with your network (for example, Mobile app, Video, and Display), then you must set this for each type individually.
