For debugging and logging purposes, successfully loaded ads provides a ResponseInfo
object. This object contains information about the ad it loaded,
in addition to information about the mediation waterfall used to load the ad.
For cases where an ad loads successfully, the ad object has a GetResponseInfo()
method. For example, interstitialAd.GetResponseInfo()
gets the response info for a loaded interstitial ad.
For cases where ads fail to load and only an error is available, the response
info is available through LoadAdError.GetResponseInfo()
.

Methods on the ResponseInfo
object include:
Method
Description
GetAdapterResponses
Returns the list of
AdapterResponseInfo
containing metadata
for each adapter included in the ad response. Can be used to debug the
waterfall mediation and bidding execution. The order of the list matches the
order of the mediation waterfall for this ad request. See Adapter Response Info for more information.
GetLoadedAdapterResponseInfo
Returns the
AdapterResponseInfo
corresponding to the adapter
that loaded the ad.GetMediationAdapterClassName
Returns the mediation adapter class name of the ad network that loaded
the ad.
GetResponseId
The response identifier is a unique identifier for the ad response. This
identifier can be used to identify and block the ad in the Ads Review Center (ARC)
.
GetResponseExtras
Returns extra information about the ad response. Extras can return the
following keys:
-
mediation_group_name: Name of the mediation group -
mediation_ab_test_name: Name of the mediation A/B test , if applicable -
mediation_ab_test_variant: Variant used in the mediation A/B test, if applicable

Adapter response info
AdapterResponseInfo
contains metadata for each adapter included in the ad
response, which can be used to debug the waterfall mediation and bidding
execution. The order of the list matches the order of the mediation waterfall
for the ad request.
Here is a sample output returned by AdapterResponseInfo
:
Android
{ "Adapter" : "com.google.ads.mediation.admob.AdMobAdapter" , "Latency" : 328 , "Ad Source Name" : "Reservation campaign" , "Ad Source ID" : "7068401028668408324" , "Ad Source Instance Name" : "[DO NOT EDIT] Publisher Test Interstitial" , "Ad Source Instance ID" : "4665218928925097" , "Credentials" : {}, "Ad Error" : "null" }

For each ad network, AdapterResponseInfo
provides the following methods:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
AdError
|
Gets the error associated with the request to the network. Returns null
if the network successfully loaded an ad or if the
network was not attempted. |
AdSourceId
|
Gets the ad source ID associated with this adapter response. For campaigns, 6060308706800320801
is returned for a mediated ads campaign goal type
,
and 7068401028668408324
is returned for impression and click
goal types. See Ad sources
for the list of possible ad source IDs when an ad network serves the ad. |
AdSourceInstanceId
|
Gets the ad source instance ID associated with this adapter response. |
AdSourceInstanceName
|
Gets the ad source instance name associated with this adapter response. |
AdSourceName
|
Gets the ad source representing the specific ad network that serves the
impression. For campaigns, Mediated House Ads
is returned for a mediated ads campaign goal type
,
and Reservation Campaign
is returned for impression and click
goal types. See Ad sources
for the list of possible ad source names when an ad network serves the
ad. |
AdapterClassName
|
Gets a class name that identifies the ad network. |
AdUnitMapping
|
Gets the network configuration set from the Admob UI. |

|
Gets the amount of time the ad network spent loading an ad.
