GSAP in Google Banner via cdn – excluded from banner weight?

[jordan-w]

Hi!

 

When creating Google Ads, I know that you have the option to include GSAP via their own cdn.

But is it official that you can exclude this from the total banner weight or do you risk that the banner will count as too heavy?

(For example, if the banner weighs 90kb without the GSAP library, and the GSAP library via CDN weighs 60kb, is the weight 90kb or 150kb when the file size is checked?)

 

(I never upload the banners myself and recently started with GSAP, and it would be so great to be able to use it for banners even when the weight is a tricky thing)

Ultimately, that's a question for wherever you're publishing the ads but yes, my understanding is that every major ad network has whitelisted all the GSAP files so they don't count against your file size calculations (as long as you use their CDN of course). 

 

Enjoy!
