Steps 1, 2 and 3

For details on how to create an InMobi account, create an app and a placement, follow the instructions here.

Step 4: Retrieve the Parameters from InMobi

To enable InMobi to work as an Ad Network on the FairBid Mediation Platform, you must obtain four from your InMobi account and later insert the details in the Fyber FairBid SDK integration.

The parameters required depend on whether you are configuring the network at the App Level or Placement Level in the Fyber console.
