Ad Targeting Facets

The LinkedIn ads platform allows advertisers to target different types of audiences on the professional network.

Use the Ad Targeting Facets API to discover types of targeting available. Use in conjunction with the Ad Targeting Entities API .

Note

Please note that website retargeting facet was named retargetingSegments in the legacy Targeting object. However the name is changed to dynamicSegments in the TargetingCriteria object. Please start using the new facet name if you're managing ad campaigns that use this facet with TargetingCriteria. If you're still managing ad campaigns using Targeting object, old name should be used as before.

Note

In versions before the 202304, the adTargetingFacetUrn field was $URN and the type of the field was urn. Hence for older versions, the name and type should be used as before.
