Sizmek

The Sizmek app allows you to use your Oracle Data Cloud platform mobile advertising ID (MAID) audiences in Sizmek's digital advertising platform.

This app was updated in August, 2018. The new version includes the ability to specify the advertiser ID during app installation. Advertiser IDs specified during app installation are included automatically in new campaigns that use the app.

If you installed the Sizmek app before the update, you can continue to use the old version and specify the advertiser ID each time you create a campaign.

If you want to use the new version, delete the old one first. (Deleting the old app does not affect campaigns you have created previously.) Then install the new version using the instructions in this document. Campaigns you create using the new version automatically include the advertiser ID you specify during installation.

To send your audiences to the Sizmek platform:

  1. Install the Sizmek app.
  2. Create an audience.
  3. Create a campaign.
