Auction packages

You can use the
auctionPackages
resource to do the following:
You can’t use the Marketplace API to create new auction packages, or view their
targeting details. You can create auction packages and configure targeting
in the Authorized Buyers Marketplace
UI.
When you subscribe a buyer or client to an auction package, you receive
Real-time Bidding bid requests based on a combination of your pretargeting
configurations,
and the targeting details in the auction package.
Unlike pretargeting configurations, auction packages don't impact the
number of bid requests you receive. Bid requests for auction packages are a
subset of the total requests you receive based on your pretargeting
configuration.
In bid requests, auction packages are identified similarly to deals with either
of the following fields:
- Google:
BidRequest.adslot[].matching_ad_data[].direct_deal[].direct_deal_id
- OpenRTB:
BidRequest.imp[].pmp.deals[].id
The preceding fields are populated with the auction package resource ID found
in the auction package's name
.
Auction packages are different from
deals in the following ways:
- Auction packages are targeting that can be shared between buyers and clients.
- Auction packages don’t involve negotiation between a buyer and publisher,
and are in effect after a buyer or client subscribes to them.
- Bids for auction packages directly compete on the open auction.
