Manage creatives for bidders

You can do the following as a bidder:

• List submitted creatives
• Watch for status changes to submitted creatives
• View and acknowledge status changes to submitted creatives

List submitted creatives

There are two ways you can view a list of submitted creatives:

• bidders.creatives.list: Supports powerful filtering options.
• Pub/Sub integration: Includes the latest creative status.

List method

The following describes how you can retrieve a list of creatives for a given bidder with bidders.creatives.list.

This method supports list filtering. If you don't use filtering, buyers.creatives.list returns all creatives from all buyers associated with the bidder account.

Unless the view parameter is specified as FULL, the response excludes most fields other than creativeServingDecision.

This call may take several hours to complete for large numbers of creatives. This is common for Open Bidding. You may need to configure a longer timeout for this call, up to five minutes.

This method returns a snapshot of the creatives at the time you make the request. For large, paginated requests the snapshot is taken at the time of the request for the first page. Due to the time it takes to process large, paginated requests, the creativeServingDecision and lastStatusUpdate fields may change for creatives on sequential pages by the time you get the response.

Updates that occur after the snapshot aren't captured in the response. This means the response may not contain the latest information for large, paginated requests. We recommend integrating with Google Cloud Pub/Sub if you need the latest creativeServingDecision and lastStatusUpdate values.

Key Point: We recommend that you watch for creative status changes and use Google Cloud Pub/Sub to be notified of creative approval status changes.

Here are some sample bidders.creatives.list calls:

Pub/Sub integration

Some fields like creativeServingDecision and lastStatusUpdate change over time. If you need to know the latest status of submitted creatives, you can use Google Cloud Pub/Sub.

Integrating your Authorized Buyers solution with Google Cloud Pub/Sub lets you track creative status changes with low latency in real time.

See the following sections on how to watch for and view status changes for more details.

Watch for status changes

The following demonstrates how one can configure their bidder account to watch for creative status changes with bidders.creatives.watch. When configured, Authorized Buyers will create a Google Cloud Pub/Sub subscription for the bidder, and send messages to it for each change in creative status for buyers under the bidder account.

Key Point: The subscription included in the response corresponds to the Google Cloud Pub/Sub API. For example, one can use this to pull the contents of the subscription with projects.subscriptions.pull.

View status changes

The following demonstrates how one can pull and acknowledge messages for a bidder's creative status changes using the Google Cloud Pub/Sub API's projects.subscriptions.pull and projects.subscriptions.acknowledge methods.

Each message received will include the creativeFormat, creativeId, and accountId attributes in order to identify the creative. The data field includes the base64-encoded JSON representation of the creative's creativeServingDecision. You can use the ackId to acknowledge that the message was received with the subscriptions.acknowledge API call.

Warning: When using the Google Cloud Pub/Sub API to access or modify your subscription and its contents, you must step through the OAuth 2.0 flow with a Google Account or Service Account that has access to your Authorized Buyers account. Additionally, you must specify the Pub/Sub API scope: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/pubsub.
