Question

I have setup prebid.js with single adaptor configured on test page. I am getting the ad response from adaptor and I can see the pbjs.getBidResponses() object is present still ad is not getting rendered on the page.

you can visit test page

standard prebid setup as follows

JAVSCRIPT

var sizes = [
  [300, 250]
];
var PREBID_TIMEOUT = 1000;
var FAILSAFE_TIMEOUT = 3000;

var adUnits = [{
  code: '/19968336/header-bid-tag-1',
  mediaTypes: {
    banner: {
      sizes: sizes
    }
  },
  bids: [{
    bidder: 'incrementx',
    params: {
      placementId: 'PNX-HB-R787915V41024E'
    }
  }]
}];

// ======== DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE =========== //
var googletag = googletag || {};
googletag.cmd = googletag.cmd || [];
googletag.cmd.push(function () {
  googletag.pubads().disableInitialLoad();
});

var pbjs = pbjs || {};
pbjs.que = pbjs.que || [];

pbjs.que.push(function () {
  pbjs.addAdUnits(adUnits);
  pbjs.requestBids({
    bidsBackHandler: initAdserver,
    timeout: PREBID_TIMEOUT
  });
});

function initAdserver() {
  if (pbjs.initAdserverSet) return;
  pbjs.initAdserverSet = true;
  googletag.cmd.push(function () {
    pbjs.setTargetingForGPTAsync && pbjs.setTargetingForGPTAsync();
    googletag.pubads().refresh();
  });
}

// in case PBJS doesn't load
setTimeout(function () {
  initAdserver();
}, FAILSAFE_TIMEOUT);

googletag.cmd.push(function () {
  googletag.defineSlot('/19968336/header-bid-tag-1', sizes, 'div-1')
    .addService(googletag.pubads());

  googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs();
  googletag.pubads().enableSingleRequest();
  googletag.enableServices();
});

pbjs.getAllPrebidWinningBids() & pbjs.getAllWinningBids() output

[]

this is the output I am getting

not able to find the issue, there is only 1 adaptor integrated so in all cases the bid should win, not sure am I missing something in setup?. Any help would be appreciated, thank you

Did you create the line items on the Google Ad Manage UI ? https://docs.prebid.org/adops/step-by-step.html — rabsom, Jul 08 '22 at 08:12

Because this line is a copy from the prebid.org docs:

  googletag.defineSlot('/19968336/header-bid-tag-1', sizes, 'div-1')

I don't think you have your own GAM account configured correctly. You'll need to have a GAM account and switch the first parameter of defineSlot to be your own GAM ad unit code.

You'll want to follow the postbid instructions if you want to avoid using GAM.
