Configure the server

The DOOHPlayBackImporter UDC plugin transmits booked DOOH spot instances to the player, regardless of which player you use. You must activate and configure the UDC importer to enable the player to play DOOH content. This happens on the server.

2. Go to Administration > Global > Customer management.
