Inventory Package API V4

Overview

The Inventory Package API V4 can create, retrieve, and update inventory packages in your network. Inventory packages consist of standardized inventory (standard attributes) and non-standardized inventory (network items). Once created, inventory packages can be used for campaign targeting.

Marketplace clients can use this API to accomplish the following tasks:

  • Get a list of inventory packages belonging to the current network. Retrieved IDs are essential for further Marketplace Inventory trafficking through Placement API V3
  • Create inventory package that include or exclude standard attributes and networks items
  • Update inventory packages with new targeting goals
  • Activate or deactivate existing inventory packages

ParameterTypeDescription
namestringSpecify filtering criteria by inventory package name. Filtering can match names composed of continuous characters with specified strings. Maximum character length is 255.

statusenumSpecify filtering criteria by inventory package status.

  • ACTIVE
  • INACTIVE

Default value = 1

Maximum value = 1000
per_pageint32Specify the number of items shown on each page.
Default value = 20

Valid value range = 5-50
updated_atstringUse the following syntax to filter inventory packages by last updated time:
  • At or earlier an updated timestamp: prefix an ellipsis (..) to the timestamp. E.g. updated_at=..2021-03-01T13:47:00Z
  • At or later an updated timestamp: append an ellipsis (..) to the timestamp. E.g. updated_at=2021-03-01T13:47:00Z..
  • A closed interval period: put an ellipsis (..) between two timestamps. E.g. updated_at=2021-03-01T00:00:00Z..2021-03-31T23:59:59Z


Use the following syntax to sort the list of inventory packages by the time of last updated:
  • In ascending order: no prefix to the updated_at parameter. E.g. updated_at=..2021-03-01T13:47:00Z
  • In descending order: prefix a minus (-) to the updated_at parameter . E.g. -updated_at=..2021-03-01T13:47:00Z
