All Placement in a Single 'Display' Channel

Step #1:  Add The C3 Metrics View Tag

The following tag needs to be appended to all Creative and called as a JavaScript tag: 

https://cdn-view.c3tag.com/v.js?cid=XXX&c3ch=Display&c3nid=[%siteName%]-[%creativeName%]-[%placementName%]&creative=[%creativeName%]&size=[%placementWidth%]x[%placementHeight%]&placement=[%placementName%][noCachebuster]

(where XXX is your assigned C3 Metrics CID)

In the event of Secure creative, the tag can be called as a Secure tag as follows: 

https://cdn-view.c3tag.com/v.js?cid=XXX&c3ch=Display&c3nid=[%siteName%]-[%creativeName%]-[%placementName%]&creative=[%creativeName%]&size=[%placementWidth%]x[%placementHeight%]&placement=[%placementName%][noCachebuster]


Step #2:  Append C3 Metrics Variables to the URL Suffix

Append the following to the destination URL:

c3ch=Display&c3nid=[%siteName%]-[%creativeName%]-[%placementName%]&c3creative=[%creativeName%]&c3size=[%placementWidth%]x[%placementHeight%]&c3placement=[%placementName%][noCachebuster]

IMPORTANT:  the above configuration will automatically classify ALL Flashtalking placements in the Display channel.  If you wish to set-up different channels, such as Display, Retargeting, etc, use the tagging as shown below.
