Admob requires marketplace url for not published app (need MY_AD_UNIT_ID)

Question

I want to place ads on my new application. I imported the Google Admob SDK but couldn't initiate a new AdView object since it requires "MY_AD_UNIT_ID".

To receive my MY_AD_UNIT_ID I have to add my app to admob. Admob requires the maket://-link to my app. But I don't want to release the app without ads. Am I doing this wrong?

EDIT: I just noticed that you can delete the market:// and leave the field completely empty. This way you can add your app without any market url. Since there have been lots of questions about the MY_AD_UNIT_ID I will leave this open.

Sincerly, Wolfen

You can easily predict what your app's market URI will be by adding the package name in the basic URI format. For example, if your app has the package com.example.app, it's market:// link will be market://details?id=com.example.app.
