Programmatic Creative API V4

Introduction

The Programmatic Creative API enables you to interact with programmatic creatives from the Programmatic Creative Library and the Creative Approval Queue outside of MRM.

With the Programmatic Creative API, you can:

  • Retrieve and update programmatic creatives
  • Review programmatic creatives to make sure the information is synced with the creatives in your upstream system
  • Approve programmatic creatives

🚧

NOTE

Because of database capacity issues, the Programmatic Creative API V4 returns a maximum of 50 creatives per page, even if you request a larger number than that.

After 30 seconds, requests time out and receive a 500 error.
