This feature allows you more flexibility when configuring where your Orders will deliver. When creating an order with multiple ad slots and using the "Or" selection, your Order will fill any available ad slot, even if all the desired slots can’t be filled. Selecting “And” will result in the default behavior where the Order would only run if all selected ad slots were available to be filled. Below is more information on how to use this.

To start, click on the "Campaigns" tab on the left-hand side of the platform. Next create a new Campaign or select an existing Campaign. Once in a Campaign, select an existing Order or create a new Order. Now that you are in an Order, you can start using the And/Or selection.

And/Or Selection

"And" will be the default selection on the Order page and also for any Orders that contain a single ad slot (pre, mid, post) to be filled. If the Order only have a single ad slot you must make sure "And" is selected. For orders with more than one ad slot to be filled, there are two choices depending on your desired outcome:

  • AND (default) – the Order will only execute if all selected ad slots are available to be filled

  • OR – the Order will execute if any of the ad slots are available to be filled. Please note: OR can only be selected after first adding an ad slot to at least two out of the three columns – pre roll, mid roll, post roll.

Where can you find this option?

And/or can only be applied at the order-level and can be found within the “delivery details” section within the “order details” tab when setting up an order. You will only be able to select one.
