Monetization is obselete, but Advertisements does not have GetPlacementContent

[itsOgden]

As of a recent update, there are Monetization is obselete warnings anytime you use the Monetization API, however Advertisements does not appear to contain GetPlacementContent(id) like Monetization does. How am I suppose to switch away from the obselete Monetization API if it doesn’t contain the same features? Is this an oversite or am I missing something?

Hi,

GetPlacementContent is part of the Personalized Placements functionality, which has been deprecated. There are no current plans to migrate the functionality to the Advertisements API, as mentioned in this thread:

Is IAP Promo and Personalized Placements deprecated?

I received an email from unity team on 17 Dec, stating that IAP Promo is deprecated and we need to use another tool to show IAP Promo, but i can’t seem to find any information about this deprecation, and my reply to the email hasn’t been answered until now. So, is IAP Promo really deprecated? what’s the reason behind the deprecation? Here’s the content of the email: The Unity Product team would like to inform you on the deprecation of the IAP Promo and Personalized Placement betas. In order …

We recommend you switch your application over to use the standard ads implementation as detailed at the top of this article:

Thanks for the info.

The help page you listed specifically mentions using GetPlacementContent with the Monetization api, hence my confusion. Can the help pages get an update to remove Monetization api information if we are no longer suppposed to use its features?
