Type or Namespace 'GoogleMobileAds' could not be found.

Hi.. So I'm pretty much ready to release a 2D project I've worked on and after importing the latest admob release file, changing the manifest, copying my google-play-services_lib file onto the corresponding folder when everything seems to be ready to go, I get this error saying the GoogleMobileAds type or namespace cannot be found.

I've copied the script below in case I'm just being a nutter and missing something obvious. The whole error says the following: (3,7):error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'GoogleMobileAds' could not be found. Are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using GoogleMobileAds.Api;

public class UnhappyAds : MonoBehaviour
{

// Use this for initialization
void Start()
{
RequestBanner();
}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{

}

private void RequestBanner()
{
#if UNITY_ANDROID
string adUnitId = "The App ID";
#elif UNITY_IPHONE
string adUnitId = "INSERT_IOS_BANNER_AD_UNIT_ID_HERE";
#else
string adUnitId = "unexpected_platform";
#endif

// Create a 320x50 banner at the top of the screen.
BannerView bannerView = new BannerView(adUnitId, AdSize.Banner, AdPosition.Bottom);
// Create an empty ad request.
AdRequest request = new AdRequest.Builder().Build();
// Load the banner with the request.
bannerView.LoadAd(request);
}
}

 

Nobody? Really?

 

I'm getting the same issue. Do let me know how you resolved it

 

Just visit https://github.com/googleads/googleads-mobile-unity/releases and download the latest. You'll end up with a Unity package. Import it to resolve all Google AdMob related assembly issues. Goog Luck!

 

I'm also getting the same issue. Also the latest release did not resolve it.
GoogleMobileAds could still not be found.
Does anybody has a solution for this?

 

I have the same issue, even when I use the latest version of the Unity Admob Plugin!
can anyone help, please?

 

i have the same issue ..plz help me

 

I have the same issue. too

 

I found the solution. In the Monodevelope, at the search text box, type "GoogleMobileAds.Api" then select it. And try again with using GoogleMobileAds.Api.

 

Did anyone fixed that? I have same problem

 

It doeanot works

 

Same did you fixed that?

 

Thanks it works for me!!

 

You need to import a package to the unity project:
1- click this link and click DOWNLOAD THE PLUGIN: https://developers.google.com/admob/unity/start
2- DOWNLOAD the about 400 kb file with .unitypackage extension
3- go to unity : Assets => import package and select the file you downloaded in step 2. check all boxes and import

 

Ok through much trial and error I think I got it. After importing the latest package, Go to directory Assets/GoogleMobileAds/Editor and select GoogleMobileAds.Editor. In the inspector check "Use GUIDs" and platforms below that. After that just click the Apply button. I also force resolved packages and restarted the editor after applying these settings for the error message to go away.

 

this doesn't work, I am having the same issues after updating all the plugins and adding google play billing.

 

In case it happens in VSCode, check your version of C# extension, 1.23.4 & 1.23.3 have AsmDef support broken. Downgrade to 1.23.2 resolved my issues. Details https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-vscode/issues/4113

 

Thanks, it fixed the problem

 

thank you. ıt is work

 

I was facing this problem too and my solution was as follows;
Assets -> Reimport All (Wait a few minutes)
My problem fixed with that way, i hope it will help to you too.

 

Hi all, I tried all the above, and still had the problem. Then I found this google mobile package for unity here: https://github.com/googleads/googleads-mobile-unity/releases/tag/v5.4.0
I downloaded it, imported in unity and there it goes!! finally worked with this.

 

Thank you so much ,this Worked for me

 

I faced the same issue, but this package version works for me, thanks, man!

 

It works! So simple

 

https://developers.google.com/admob/unity/rewarded
Check the Webpage so all problem is solve.

Example:-
using GoogleMobileAds.Api;
...
public class GoogleMobileAdsDemoScript : MonoBehaviour
{
private RewardedAd rewardedAd;
...

public void Start()
{
string adUnitId;
#if UNITY_ANDROID
adUnitId = "ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/5224354917";
#elif UNITY_IPHONE
adUnitId = "ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/1712485313";
#else
adUnitId = "unexpected_platform";
#endif

this.rewardedAd = new RewardedAd(adUnitId);

// Called when an ad request has successfully loaded.
this.rewardedAd.OnAdLoaded += HandleRewardedAdLoaded;
// Called when an ad request failed to load.
this.rewardedAd.OnAdFailedToLoad += HandleRewardedAdFailedToLoad;
// Called when an ad is shown.
this.rewardedAd.OnAdOpening += HandleRewardedAdOpening;
// Called when an ad request failed to show.
this.rewardedAd.OnAdFailedToShow += HandleRewardedAdFailedToShow;
// Called when the user should be rewarded for interacting with the ad.
this.rewardedAd.OnUserEarnedReward += HandleUserEarnedReward;
// Called when the ad is closed.
this.rewardedAd.OnAdClosed += HandleRewardedAdClosed;

// Create an empty ad request.
AdRequest request = new AdRequest.Builder().Build();
// Load the rewarded ad with the request.
this.rewardedAd.LoadAd(request);
}

public void HandleRewardedAdLoaded(object sender, EventArgs args)
{
MonoBehaviour.print("HandleRewardedAdLoaded event received");
}

public void HandleRewardedAdFailedToLoad(object sender, AdFailedToLoadEventArgs args)
{
MonoBehaviour.print(
"HandleRewardedAdFailedToLoad event received with message: "
+ args.Message);
}

public void HandleRewardedAdOpening(object sender, EventArgs args)
{
MonoBehaviour.print("HandleRewardedAdOpening event received");
}

public void HandleRewardedAdFailedToShow(object sender, AdErrorEventArgs args)
{
MonoBehaviour.print(
"HandleRewardedAdFailedToShow event received with message: "
+ args.Message);
}

public void HandleRewardedAdClosed(object sender, EventArgs args)
{
MonoBehaviour.print("HandleRewardedAdClosed event received");
}

public void HandleUserEarnedReward(object sender, Reward args)
{
string type = args.Type;
double amount = args.Amount;
MonoBehaviour.print(
"HandleRewardedAdRewarded event received for "
+ amount.ToString() + " " + type);
}
}

The OnUserEarnedReward event provides special event arguments. It passes an instance of Reward with a Type and Amount describing the reward given to the user:

public void HandleUserEarnedReward(object sender, Reward args)
{
string type = args.Type;
double amount = args.Amount;
MonoBehaviour.print(
"HandleRewardedAdRewarded event received for "
+ amount.ToString() + " " + type);
}

 

thx my friend =)

 

This fixed it for me as well. After looking at all of the packages that came after this one, they seem to be missing most of the scripts.
