# How to set up Pubstack's Refresh module

## Summarize how to set up Pubstack's Refresh module

In order to get started with Pubstack's refresh module, you'll have to follow the steps below :

- Share your GAM Network ID: send it to [support@pubstack.io](mailto:support@pubstack.io)..
- Note that if you already have integrated AdX data in Pubstack, you can skip steps 1 to 4 and go directly to step 5.
  
  Within Gam: 
    1. Create a new Role "Pubstack" with the following rights.![](https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn.freshdesk.com/data/helpdesk/attachments/production/48142479943/original/CaKx8N5_WZCVaw0MooStxFZ7gkenQm5aRQ.png?1632223316)![](https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn.freshdesk.com/data/helpdesk/attachments/production/48142480451/original/q2JEBmsBqT0-k_6wm_Vae0GmmHZF7WDooA.png?1632223422)
    2. Add "[help@pubstack.io](mailto:help@pubstack.io)" as a new user.[mailto:support@pubstack.io](mailto:support@pubstack.io)
    3. Add the Pubstack Role to the new user.
    4. Make sure the account has access to the inventory. Set "All Entities" as the teams.![](https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn.freshdesk.com/data/helpdesk/attachments/production/48055489007/original/-rASgT7Ib7NUbPLc6D2ArbQTN97tabaMYg.jpg?1598282511)
    5. **Create the following Key value:**  
       Name: "pbstck\_refresh"  
       Targeting Values: "1"  
       Type: Predefined  
       Reporting: Include values in reporting & add key as custom dimension  
       If you cannot add a new custom dimension, just including values in reporting is possible, but it will limit the possible analyses.  
       Pubstack will target this key with value 1 on every refresh auction, allowing you to keep track of the refresh performance in GAM, according to our commitment on full transparency.  
       Our billing for refresh is also based on GAM's data.  
       ![](https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn.freshdesk.com/data/helpdesk/attachments/production/48157466630/original/15h0RUQQ6leGN5dlCMxwbBYLa8g5MbiLHg.png?1636551632)
    6. This step is optional. It will let you keep track of the refresh rank within GAM.  
       Create the following Key value:  
       Name: "pbstck\_refresh\_rank"  
       Targeting Values: "1", "2", "3", etc, up to "10"  
       Type: Predefined  
       Reporting: Include values in reporting & add key as custom dimension  
       If you cannot add a new custom dimension, just including values in reporting is possible, but it will limit the possible analyses.
    7. Get in touch with the Pubstack team through your usual contact or at [support@pubstack.io](mailto:support@pubstack.io) to let us know you're ready to get started!
