Invalid configuration request for gameId:

Unity Services
,

I have been working on a project and decided to add ads. I was following unity’s tutorial. I started in InitializingTheUnitySDK; once I ran the project I get this error:

" Unity Ads Initialization Failed: INTERNAL_ERROR - Invalid configuration request for gameId: XXXXXXX
UnityEngine.Debug:Log (object)
AdsInitializer:OnInitializationFailed (UnityEngine.Advertisements.UnityAdsInitializationError,string) (at Assets/scripts/ADS/AdsInitializer.cs:31)
UnityEngine.Advertisements.Utilities.CoroutineExecutor:Update () (at Library/PackageCache/com.unity.ads@4.4.1/Runtime/Advertisement/Utilities/CoroutineExecutor.cs:17)"

Hello,

Please DM me or reach out to our support form with the Game ID you’re using and your code snippet so that we can investigate further :slight_smile:

I have a very familiar error. Can you help me?

Could you please tell me what Game ID you’re using so that I can investigate further?

SOLVED:
If anyone is having this “Invalid configuration request for gameId:” error. Double check that Android ID and IOS ID are filled in under Project Settings > Services > Ads (You get these IDs from the Unity Dashboard > Monetization >Ad Units) .
Then after that double check your Ads Initializer Script. If the Android and IOS game ID fields are public or serialized fields, then check the game component that your Ads Initializer Script is attached too. If the fields are empty fill them in with the IDs from the Unity Dashboard.

If that doesn’t work, switch the platform that you are building to something else for example Windows, then switch the build platform back to Android or IOS.

Hope this helps.

Try
File---->Build Settings---->Player Settings---->Player---->Identification---->Target API Level switch from 34 to 35 and restart the project. In your case maybe the Target API Level will be different. Put it on highest

This resolved my issue with ads, now they work just fine
