Bootcamp Widget Inventory Test
Testing which ESY bootcamp category IDs have ad inventory. Each widget below loads independently — green border = rendered ads, red border = empty/no inventory.
Widgets auto-detect rendering after 8 seconds. Check the status badges for results.
Inventory Status Dashboard
1. Category ID Widgets (Bootcamp Categories)
Using category_id parameter — these are ad-hoc category-based widgets.
ESY will only return results if they have advertisers matching each category.
2. Pre-Configured Widget IDs
Using widget_id parameter — these are pre-configured in the ESY dashboard
with their own category targeting. They should always return results if the widget is active.
3. Head-to-Head: Data Science category_id vs widget_id
Same content, different ESY API approach. This reveals whether the widget_id has different targeting than the category_id.
4. Control Group (Known Working — Non-Bootcamp)
These degree-program category IDs are known to have inventory. If these work but bootcamp IDs don't, the issue is ESY inventory coverage.
