What Is a Delivery Matrix?

A delivery matrix is a spreadsheet where each row defines one deliverable. It tells Versionary what to produce — the aspect ratio, platform, codec, overlay, logo, and filename for every version of your spot. Upload a CSV or Excel file. Versionary’s flexible column detection reads any column order and handles variations in column naming.

Column Detection

You don’t need exact column names. Versionary recognizes common variations:
  • Ad-ID: ad-id, adid, isci, id, ad_id
  • Title: title, name, description, spot_name
  • Format: format, aspect_ratio, ratio, size
  • Platform: platform, destination, network, placement
Columns can appear in any order. Empty rows and header variations are handled automatically.

Multi-Video Batches

If your campaign has multiple master videos (e.g., a 30-second and a 15-second cut), upload all videos at once. Versionary matches each matrix row to the correct source video using intelligent filename matching. The matching system uses three passes:
  1. Exact match — filename matches the Video column exactly
  2. Substring match — Video column value appears within the filename
  3. Prefix match — first segment of the filename matches
