Prerequisites for Adobe Analytics-only implementations

Complete the general prerequisites

Whether you implement the Streaming Media Collection Add-on for Adobe Analytics-only implementations or for Edge implementations, ensure that you meet the general prerequisites.

Confirm that you have an Adobe Analytics implementation

When implementing the Streaming Media Collection Add-on with an Analytics-only implementation, an Adobe Analytics basic implementation is also required. See Implement Adobe Analytics for more information.

Obtain the media tracking server URL

Ask your Adobe Analytics Representative for the media tracking server URL. This is the collection-api-server URL for the Mobile SDK, the JavaScript SDK, and the non-collection-api tracking server for Roku. Domain names for API implementation is: [your_namespace].hb-api.omtrdc.net.

Download the current Media SDK or implement the required Extensions

Depending on the implementation path, download the current SDK for web, mobile, or over-the-top platforms. The required extensions must be implemented to enable the Streaming Media Collection Add-on extensions paths.

Enable Adobe Analytics Reports

To enable reports in Analytics and to view the content and ad data that you’re collecting, you must enable reports in Analytics. See Media reports enablement.
