Font size options in Report Studio
While exporting a report, customers stated the font size for widget titles or labels was too small. In this release, TapClicks has introduced 3 options to Report Studio for font size, which is similar to the dashboard settings.
Users can select font without impacting the column headers. A predefined template will use medium font size by default.

Google Ad Manager Enhancements
We have added multiple field enhancements in this release. They are:
- Line Item Custom Ad Size Support
We can now enter custom ad sizes in the TapClicks platform and push them over to the Google Ad Manager. The workflow remains the same as before, but users would now be able to enter a value that is not standard and save it as custom. The new value will be indicated as such by adding a (Custom) next to the value. For example, if users enter 123x123, they would be able to save this value and it will be shown as 123x123 (Custom) in the list. Additionally, once a custom value is used in a Line Item, it will be stored in TapClicks and available in the list of standard values for repeated use.
To configure this field, the field name should be dfp_adsizes and the input type should be multi select-custom. No other changes are required in the product configuration.
- Line Item Device Targeting - Manufacturer / Device (mobile apps only)
Line Items can be targeted based on the manufacturer of mobile devices. Users can include or exclude specific devices for targeting from the available items on the list.
If the build already exists with field name as devices, it is not required to add a new configuration to it. If not, users need to add a field with devices as the Field name. Input type should also be devices.
- Line Item Device Targeting - Device Capability
Users can now target Line Items based on mobile device capabilities such as MRAID v1 Or MRAID v2 by including or excluding specific capabilities from the available list.
This can be configured by adding a field with devices as the Field name. Input type should also be device-capability.
- Line Item Targeting - Mobile Application
Users can target claimed mobile apps from the Tap system now. This functionality is not built to claim apps from the Play Store or the Apple Store. It has been built to target the already claimed apps. The apps that have already been claimed for the user account would be available in the Mobile App targeting block in TapClicks.
This can be configured in the product form by adding a field with a mobile-app as the Field name. The input type should also be mobile-app.
Order workflow across Business Unit (BU)
Currently, Order workflows can be assigned to a single Business Unit (BU). This works perfectly for clients who need different workflows across their business but two clients have the same workflow across all of their order BUs. If the number of their BUs is large, creating a new workflow for a new BU is not practical for them. In case of any changes, the team was forced to carry it out across all the workflows. This feature has been created for the clients who need order workflow across all BUs.
Please Note:
- This functionality is available to Super Admin users only.
- This functionality applies only to Workflows for the time being. Order forms across BUs functionality are coming out shortly.
- If you are creating your first workflow for a new instance and you want that Workflow to span all existing and future BUs, the user can select the ALL BU option.
- The All BU option will only work if creating the first workflow. There will be a pop-up error message if the is a BU already associated with another workflow.
- The BUs that currently have an order workflow associated with it will still show up in the drop-down, but will not be re-assignable as it would severe any active workflows.
- If creating an order workflow and others exist, the user can assign individual or multiple BUs to this workflow.
- Is the BU already has a workflow assigned to it, you will receive an error stating the BU(s) that have the workflow associated with it and then the user can re-assign the BU’s as needed.
- Users can add more BUs to the existing workflow after creating them.
- Currently, only individual BUs are available for selection. Group BUs will not show up for selection.
To access this feature,
- Navigate to Administration Workflows
- Click the + sign on the top ribbon
- In the Create New Workflow window, under Business Units dropdown, you can see the option All Business Units.
- Select All Business Units option if you want to select all BUs across the workflow.
This feature will save many many man-hours utilized in creating a similar individual workflow for different BUs.

Multilevel Smart Connector
Source platforms usually don’t have required fields on the Parent or Child level Data Source. To create cumulative Reports, customers are forced to request the Source platform to create a separate customer port or depend on the engineering team to create a connector for that particular Data Source. To tackle this issue, TapClicks is introducing the Multilevel Smart Connector feature, which will allow users to inherit fields and pull data from a Parent and Child data view. Users can pull data in CSV, TSV and Excel format. You can also pull data housed in a database, which is helpful for some business units. Previously, Smart Connector was capable to pull data either from the Parent or Child level.
Once you pull data in TapClicks, you can create Widgets and present the data in any way you want. Please note that you can create multiple levels on existing Smart Connectors as well.
Multilevel Smart Connector will help all businesses which don’t have a readily available native connector or customer port. As of now, the Multilevel Smart Connector feature is available for Pro and Elite users by request only.
To create a Multilevel Smart Connector,
- Click Administration Data Settings Smart Connector in the left pane.
- Click the + icon next to the header.
- A New Smart Connector screen appears.
- Fill in the required details, select & upload your Sample File and scroll down.
-
Save your Smart Connector... line appears on the screen.
- Click Save Changes.
- The screen refreshes. Scroll down to find Smart Connector Sublevels.
- Click the + icon next to the header.
- Select the Delivery Type, select & upload your Sample File and scroll down.
- Select appropriate options from the available fields.
- For detailed description any field, hover over the + icon next to the option.
- Click Save to save your Multilevel Smart Connector.
Please contact your Success Manager for more details regarding field information.
