Your dashboard shows "Active," yet your fill rates are abysmal, or the eCPM is suspiciously static. In 90% of cases, this is not an issue with your traffic quality or the InMobi demand. It is a configuration silent failure. Modern programmatic bidding relies on passing encrypted data objects—"signals"—from the client device to the mediation server. For InMobi, Google AdMob requires an explicit opt-in for these signals to be ingested. Without enabling "Secure Signals," the InMobi bidder receives a bid request without the necessary context to value the impression, resulting in a no-bid or a floor-price bid. This guide details the technical root cause of this failure, the mandatory UI configuration to fix it, and the code required to ensure the signal pipeline remains open. The Root Cause: The Opaque...
