IMPORTANT

Taboola integration via Google Ad Manager has numerous drawbacks.

Whenever possible, consider using an alternative method - e.g. standard integration (aka JS Tag integration).

Editing Params

This section describes how to create/edit a Taboola code snippet yourself, for Google Ads Manager.

πŸ“˜

To add the code snippet as a creative in Google Ads Manager, see Google Ad Manager (DFP) (above).

πŸ“˜

If you received a prefilled code snippet from Taboola, you can copy and paste it into GAM 'as is', without editing any Taboola params.

After copying the prefilled code snippet, make sure to edit the width of the <div> element.

A standard code snippet follows:

<!--

Taboola content will load in the <div> element below.
You can use any ID for the <div> - just make sure to update ALL references in the JS (below).

Taboola modules served via GAM are NOT responsive. Style the width of the <div> to match your needs.
-->
<div id="taboola-slot" style="width:<<width>>px"></div>

<!-- Use YOUR OWN param values, as provided by Taboola -->
<script type="text/javascript">
   window._taboola = window._taboola || [];
   _taboola.push({article:'auto', url : top.location.href}); // for a page_type of 'article', use 'article:'auto'
   _taboola.push({listenTo: 'render', handler : function(){
   var wdgc = document.getElementById('taboola-slot'); // Pass the ID of the <div> container (see above).
     window.frameElement.width = "" + wdgc.scrollWidth;
     window.frameElement.height = "" + wdgc.scrollHeight;
   }});
   _taboola.push({
     mode: '<mode>',
     container: 'taboola-slot', // The ID of the <div> container (see above).
     placement: '<placement>',
     target_type: 'mix'
   });
</script>

<!--  Fill in your Publisher ID, as provided by Taboola -->
<script src= '//cdn.taboola.com/libtrc/<publisher-id>/loader.js'></script>

🚧

Use your own param values, as provided by Taboola.

Param/default valueInstructionsNotes

Possible values:

video (video='auto')
article (article='auto')
photo (photo='auto')
search (search='auto')
category (category='auto')
home (home='auto')

----
The 'auto' directive auto-generates an ID for the page.
modeFill in the UI Mode ID for this placement, as provided by Taboola:
- E.g. '<<mode>>'.
containerFill in the ID of the <div> container:
- E.g. 'taboola-slot'.
placementFill in the placement name, as provided by Taboola:
- E.g. '<<placementName>>'.
publisherFill in your alphabetic Publisher ID, as provided by Taboola
- E.g. '<<publisherID>>'
Your Publisher ID is a unique, alphabetic String. It might contain dashes - but not spaces.
target_typeFill in the target type, as provided by Taboola:
- E.g. '<<targetType>>'.

Tracking clicks

To track the clicks, adjust your code snippet to include a listenTo:'click' directive.

A full, updated code snippet follows:

<!--

Taboola content will load in the <div> element below.
You can use any ID for the <div> - just make sure to update ALL references in the JS (below).

Taboola modules served via GAM are NOT responsive. Style the width of the <div> to match your needs.
-->
<div id="taboola-slot" style="width:<<width>>px"></div>

<!-- Use YOUR OWN param values, as provided by Taboola -->
<script type="text/javascript">
   window._taboola = window._taboola || [];
   _taboola.push({article:'auto', url : top.location.href}); // for a page_type of 'article', use 'article:'auto'
   _taboola.push({listenTo: 'render', handler : function(){
   var wdgc = document.getElementById('taboola-slot'); // Pass the ID of the <div> container (see above).
     window.frameElement.width = "" + wdgc.scrollWidth;
     window.frameElement.height = "" + wdgc.scrollHeight;
   }});

  // (Optional) Code snippet for tracking clicks
  // Generates an <img> pixel that uses the GAM URL for tracking clicks.
  _taboola.push({
    listenTo: 'click',
    handler: function (e) {
      var i = document.createElement("img");
      i.src = "%%CLICK_URL_ESC%%";
    }
  });
  
   _taboola.push({
     mode: '<mode>',
     container: 'taboola-slot', // The ID of the <div> container (see above).
     placement: '<placement>',
     target_type: 'mix'
   });
