Bulk Upload

Zeta DSP allows you to upload Ads in bulk, without any limit on the number of Ads. This feature is available for Video (Vast Tag/File), HTML/Text, and Image Ads. 

1. Click on the DSP logo in the upper left corner. Within the menu that appears for Advertisers and Admin, select the Account that contains your advertiser, and then select your Advertiser.

2. Select Creatives > Ads from the menu on the left to display the Ad Cards.

3. Click on Bulk Upload and select an Ad Type from the drop-down. Click on Browse File on the right.

  • For Video (VAST Tag), only .xlsx format is supported.

  • For Video (Video File), only .zip format is supported.

  • For HTML/Text, most third-party ad tag formats of .xls, .xlsx, .csv, and .txt are supported.

  • For Images, only .zip format is supported.

If a file is not supported, click on Download Template to manually fill in the template before dragging and dropping it again once complete.

4. After uploading the file(s), click on Send.

  • Your Bulk Upload will start being processed.

  • Click on View Status in the notification to navigate to the Bulk Upload Status page, where you can check on the status of your recent upload, or any previous uploads for this Advertiser.

Click on the icon at the upper left to access and modify the available Grid Columns.

The table below reflects the individual columns that may be displayed on the Bulk Upload Status page, along with the different values that could appear.

Will display Queued or Processing if either of these is displayed under the Status column, otherwise will indicate the total number of ads created, the total number of ads that were in the attachment, along with any errors that occurred during the validation process.

Ads cannot be set live until any errors have been corrected. Be sure to check the ad names listed to view what the specific error is.
