Deal List service

  • Artikel

A deal is an agreement between a buyer and a seller that provides special access to inventory and/or data. Deals are primarily used to access preferred premium inventory or negotiated inventory. A deal list is a group of deals IDs categorised under a heading for targeting across line items. Deal lists allow inventory specialists to curate deals inventory for traders as well as streamline trader workflows like targeting the same set of deals across line items. If deal grouping requirements change, only making required changes in the deal list will automatically update all line items accordingly.

Deal List API facilitates search, add, modify, and fetching a specific or different deal lists. It allows you to create, append and replace a deal list with comma-separated deal IDs.

Note

All query parameters in Deal List service support a list of comma separated values. For example, to delete a set of deal lists, a comma separated list of IDs can be passed as query parameters.

JSON fields

Field Type Description
id int The ID of a deal list.

Required On: PUT, in the JSON payload.
name string The name of the deal list.

Required On: POST, in the JSON payload.
deals array of objects The deals that are to be included in the deal list. The deal IDs of the deals are included here. See Example for this field.

Required On:POST, PUT
advertisers array of objects The advertisers for whom the deal list is meant for. The advertiser IDs are included here. See Example for this field.

Note:
On POST calls, if the advertisers field is either set to an empty array or set without any value, it defaults to all the advertisers to whom the user has access to. In other words, if the user has access to all the advertisers under a member, this field defaults to an empty array because there is no advertiser specific restriction present.

Similarly on PUT calls, if the advertisers are set to empty arrays, it defaults to all advertisers to whom the user has access to (not setting a field value on PUT calls have no effect).
last_modified timestamp Time of last modification made to the deal list.

Read Only.
created_on timestamp Time of creation of the deal list.
line_items array of objects The line items that are targeting the deal list (line items that have a profile attached to them and that profile is targeting the deal list). See Example for this field.
