What is the Google Drive Creative Upload Assistant?
The Google Drive Creative Upload Assistant automates the transition of creative assets from production to the "Manage Creative" section in your Mintegral dashboard.
- Efficiency: Automated scans run every week, or immediately upon urgent request
- Versatility: Supports Video, Static Banners, and Playable Creatives (via .zip)
- Real-time Tracking: Automatic Slack notifications provide instant success/failure reports
- History & Backtracking: Maintains a 30-day execution log and a database of all previously uploaded files to prevent duplicates
How to Prepare Your Assets
To ensure your creatives are uploaded successfully, please follow these naming and formatting standards.
Technical Requirements
- Playable Creatives: Must be compressed into a .zip file before uploading to Google Drive.
- File Location: Creatives can be organized in the same Google Drive folder as your other creative assets.
- Google Drive Link: Please confirm that the Google Drive folder or Shared Drive you’re using is the one shared with you by your account manager.
Naming Conventions (You must adhere to these rules!)
The bot will automatically fail if the following naming rules are not met:
- Characters: Use only letters, numbers, hyphens (-), underscores (_), plus signs (+), or dollar signs ($).
- Special Characters: We suggest avoiding special characters as they will be changed to underscores in the final file name.
- Length: Keep file names under 100 characters.
- No Spaces: Do not include blank spaces in the file name.
Common Error
-
Unsupported Resolution: Ensure your creative dimensions are supported by the Mintegral Portal, or the upload will fail with a "Resolution not supported" error.
