  • Debug IDs will only be used when your Godot app is run in debug mode
  • Real IDs will only be used when the is_real field of the node is set to true

• register listeners for one or more of the following signals of the Admob node:

  • initialization_completed(status_data: InitializationStatus)
  • banner_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • banner_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
  • banner_ad_refreshed(ad_id: String)
  • banner_ad_clicked(ad_id: String)
  • banner_ad_impression(ad_id: String)
  • banner_ad_opened(ad_id: String)
  • banner_ad_closed(ad_id: String)
  • interstitial_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • interstitial_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
  • interstitial_ad_impression(ad_id: String)
  • interstitial_ad_clicked(ad_id: String)
  • interstitial_ad_showed_full_screen_content(ad_id: String)
  • interstitial_ad_failed_to_show_full_screen_content(ad_id: String, error_data: AdError)
  • interstitial_ad_dismissed_full_screen_content(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
  • rewarded_ad_impression(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_clicked(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_showed_full_screen_content(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_failed_to_show_full_screen_content(ad_id: String, error_data: AdError)
  • rewarded_ad_dismissed_full_screen_content(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_user_earned_reward(ad_id: String, reward_data: RewardItem)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_impression(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_clicked(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_showed_full_screen_content(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_failed_to_show_full_screen_content(ad_id: String, error_data: AdError)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_dismissed_full_screen_content(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_user_earned_reward(ad_id: String, reward_data: RewardItem)
  • consent_form_loaded
  • consent_form_dismissed(error_data: FormError)
  • consent_form_failed_to_load(error_data: FormError)
  • consent_info_updated
  • consent_info_update_failed(error_data: FormError)

• initialize the plugin

  • call the initialize() method of the Admob node
  • wait for the initialization_completed signal

• use one or more of the following load_*() methods to load ads from the Admob node:

  • load_banner_ad(ad_request: LoadAdRequest)
  • load_interstitia_adl(ad_request: LoadAdRequest)
  • load_rewarded_ad(ad_request: LoadAdRequest)
  • load_rewarded_interstitial_ad(ad_request: LoadAdRequest)

• the Admob node will emit the following signals once ads have been loaded or failed to load:

  • banner_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • banner_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
  • interstitial_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • interstitial_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
  • rewarded_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)

• once ads have been loaded, call corresponding show_*() method from the Admob node with the ad_id received:

  • show_banner_ad(ad_id: String)
  • show_interstitial_ad(ad_id: String)
  • show_rewarded_ad(ad_id: String)
  • show_rewarded_interstitial_ad(ad_id: String)

Android Export

• Make sure that the scene that contains the Admob node is selected in the Godot Editor when building and exporting for Android
  • Close other scenes to make sure
  • Admob node will be searched in the scene that is currently open in the Godot Editor

Troubleshooting

adb logcat is one of the best tools for troubleshooting unexpected behavior

• use $> adb logcat | grep 'godot' on Linux
  • adb logcat *:W to see warnings and errors
  • adb logcat *:E to see only errors
  • adb logcat | grep 'godot|somethingElse' to filter using more than one string at the same time
• use #> adb.exe logcat | select-string "godot" on powershell (Windows)
