Bidders - Bid request

Important

  • Not Supported: The AppNexus Bidding Protocol is no longer supported; this documentation is for legacy purposes only. We will deprecate this protocol on December 1, 2018.
  • If you're a new bidder integrating with AppNexus, please see the OpenRTB 2.4 Bidding Protocol.

A Bid Request is sent to bidders whenever an ad call reaches the Impression Bus. It contains all the necessary information for a bidder to produce a bid price and a creative to serve.

The Bid Request includes information from sellers that specifies which advertisers and creatives are allowed to win an auction and run on a page. This information is stored into an ad approval profile, which bidders can use to make sure that their bids are accepted.

Throttling bid requests

You may not wish to receive all bid requests that pass through the AppNexus platform. You can either throttle requests by some percentage, or filter requests by preset criteria such as geography.

Multi-tag bid requests

We sometimes send "multi-tag bid requests" where one Bid Request may include multiple tag IDs with potentially different sizes, ad quality standards, reserve prices, etc. For now, these requests should be handled with individual responses for each tag as if they were independent requests. However, in the near future, these multi-tag requests will be the foundation for takeovers, full page buyouts, and many other premium inventory features.

Each individual tag in a multi-tag request has a unique auction ID.

Implementation

Request headers

Field Scope Type Description
Connection all string Always set to "keep-alive" to ensure persistent TCP connections.
Content-Length all int Length of the body of the HTTP request (which includes all fields described below).
Host all string IP address to which the bid request has been sent.

X-DMA some int Code for the designated market area of the user based on IP address, if it can be determined.
X-Exclusive some int Indicates whether or not the auction is exclusive by default. An exclusive auction is one in which only the placement owner can serve an ad. The exclusive default may be overridden by the owner during the owner phase of the auction.
X-Segment some string A comma-separated list of segments that the user is in. Segments available include those owned by your members and those owned by 3rd party data providers (to whom AppNexus has granted your bidder access).

Auction info

General data

Field Scope Type Description

members all array of objects An array of members that are eligible to bid on this call. A member is an entity that has a financial buying or selling relationship with AppNexus and is associated with a bidder. Some bidders may have multiple members; if you are building a bidder for your own exclusive use, you will be the only member. The member object has the id of the member. See Members below for more information.

Note: This is not an array of numbers, it is an array of objects. The exact syntax is given in the example below.
tags all array of objects An array of the tags that are being auctioned in this call. An auction will have at least one, but may have several tags. See Tags below for more information.

Owner-specific data

Field Scope Type Description
allow_exclusive some Boolean If the bidding member owns the inventory (i.e. member_id of tag = member ID of the bidder) then the member can serve into it without allowing other bidders to participate.

site_id some int The ID of the site. Sites are the second-largest groupings of inventory for members that sell their inventory through AppNexus. A site is a subset of inventory for a publisher. Bidders cannot lookup what site the ID corresponds to, but these IDs can be used as anonymous, optimizeable chunks of inventory.

General data

Field Scope Type Description

tag_format some enum("iframe", "js", "wp7", "vast", "json", "xml") For "iframe" tags, the impression bus will return HTML to display the winning creative on the publisher's page (if necessary, the HTML will contain an IFrame tag.) For "js" tags, the impression bus will return javascript to be executed on the publisher's page. (The javascript returned will typically contain document.write commands to generate the HTML for displaying the creative.) This distinction is only relevant to bidders in the case where a creative will not display properly in one or more tag formats.

Deals

Each object in the deals array contains the following fields.

Field Type Description
ad_quality_override int Specifies how the deal handles creatives:
- 1: Creatives use existing ad quality settings. (Default)
- 2: Creatives in "pending" audit status will serve. Once these creatives are audited, the existing ad quality settings are used.
- 3: No ad profile restrictions will be applied to this deal. (Maximum trust)
allowed_media_subtypes array of integers. Specifies the IDs of the media subtypes that are allowed on this deal. Use the Media Subtype Service to view a list of media subtypes. If there are no unique media subtypes for this deal as compared to the main bid request object, this field will be an empty array. This does NOT mean the deal does not allow any media subtypes, instead it just means that the media subtypes on the main bid object should be used when bidding on this deal.
allowed_media_types array of integers. Specifies the IDs of the media types that are allowed on this deal. Use the Media Type Service to view a list of media types. If there are no unique media types for this deal as compared to the main bid request object, this field will be an empty array. This does NOT mean the deal does not allow any media types, instead it just means that the media types on the main bid object should be used when bidding on this deal.
floor_cpm double The price the seller has set for the deal. Use this amount plus any applicable fees as your minimum bid in order to compete for this inventory. Note that bidding this amount plus any applicable fees will help ensure that you are eligible for the deal but will not guarantee that your bid wins.
This amount will always be in US dollars. Ask prices entered in another currency will be converted to dollars.
id int The ID of the deal that applies to the impression. You can use the Deal Buyer Access Service to view the deal's details including deal name, description, start and end date, and associated inventory.
member_id int The ID of the buyer member for whom the deal was created.
sizes array of strings. Allowable creative sizes for this deal, given in "widthxheight" format. If there are no unique sizes for this deal as compared to the main bid request object, this field will be an empty array. This does NOT mean the deal does not allow any sizes, instead it just means that the sizes on the main bid object should be used when bidding on this deal.

Bid_Info

User

Field Scope Type Description
user_id_64 all int The unique 64-bit ID for the user. It will be the same for all requests from this user until cookies are cleared.

Note: This value is only populated when the field no_cookies is false.

This field is 0 when AppNexus does not have a match for this user or the user's browser doesn't accept cookies. It will be -1 for opt-out users.
user_agent some string The "User-Agent" header from the browser. (In other words the type of browser.)

no_flash all boolean Informs the bidder if we have detected that the user's browser does not have flash installed.
no_cookies all boolean If the no_cookies field is set to false
- AppNexus is able to track the user via a user id that is placed in a cookie in the user's browser.
- The user id will be contained in the user_id_64 field on the bid request.

If the no_cookies field is set to true AND the user_id_64 field is set to 0
- AppNexus is not able to track the user since the user's browser does not accept cookies.
- You should not bid for such an auction on behalf of campaigns that require user data (e.g. frequency capping, recency capping).

If the no_cookies field is set to true AND the user_id_64 field is nonzero
- AppNexus is able to track the user via cookies, and the user_id_64 field contains the user id.
- However, a problem occurred while looking up user information in the AppNexus server-side user data store.
- As a result, the bid request will not include user data, nor can AppNexus reliably update user data based on commands sent in the bid response.
- You should not bid for such an auction on behalf of campaigns that require user data (e.g. frequency capping, recency capping).
gender some enum "male" or "female" - This data may be supplied by the publisher at auction time.
age some int This data may be supplied by the publisher at auction time.
