Starting September 8, 2025, every new line item will need to declare whether or not they will serve Eurpoean Union (EU) political ads. Display & Video 360 API and SDF uploads that don't provide declarations will fail. See our deprecations page for more details on how to update your integration to make this declaration.

The Display & Video 360 API is built on HTTP and JSON, so any standard HTTP client can
send requests to it and parse the responses.
However, the Google API client libraries can provide better language
integration, improved security, and support for making calls that require user
authorization. By using these client libraries, you can avoid the need to
manually process HTTP requests and responses.
In the tables below, the first column shows each library's stage of
development; note that some are still in early stages. The second column
links to the main page for each library.
