Integrating via Unity Package Manager

Using Package Manager in the Project Settings tab of the Unity editor with the OpenUPM public registry allows you to integrate Yandex Mobile Ads dependencies without manual .unitypackage imports. With this approach, you can install the main SDK package and any individual packages of ad network adapters from the supported list, if needed. To enable mediation, use the package Yandex Mobile Ads Mediation plugin for Unity.

Note

An adapter is a module that serves as a mediator between the Yandex Advertising Network and a third-party ad network.
