google adslot syntax - is there a way to not specify a criteria?

Question

I am trying to introduce interstitial adverts for a web project but I am confused about how to use an existing adslot without defining a criteria for that (or if it is even possible?)

From the documentation here: https://developers.google.com/publisher-tag/reference https://developers.google.com/publisher-tag/guides/key-value-targeting

There are some examples that show a chosen category of advert to be shown, for example:

googletag.defineSlot('/1234567/sports', [728, 90], 'div-1');

or

googletag.defineOutOfPageSlot('/6355419/Travel/Europe/France/Paris', googletag.enums.OutOfPageFormat.INTERSTITIAL);

when I try to use the sample code with my account ID and the ad-unit name, it does not work. I don't want to define cateogries at this stage, I would prefer that it is done automatically.

For example

    interstitialSlot = googletag.defineOutOfPageSlot('/26*****997/auto',
    googletag.enums.OutOfPageFormat.INTERSTITIAL);

or

    interstitialSlot = googletag.defineOutOfPageSlot('/26*****997/interstitial-unit-name',
    googletag.enums.OutOfPageFormat.INTERSTITIAL);

but neither of these formats are accepted and the documentation seems to be somewhat lacking in other examples.

Any help appreciated.

interstitialSlot = googletag.defineOutOfPageSlot('/26*****997/auto',

googletag.enums.OutOfPageFormat.INTERSTITIAL);

Use this and wait 24 hours only
