Bid Params

NOTE msftstaila is an aliased bidder of Microsoft. Either placement_id OR both member and inv_code are required. Please don’t specify all three together, it may impact delivery.

Name Scope Description Example Type
placement_id required (see note above) The placement ID from Microsoft Monetize. You may identify a placement using the inv_code and member instead of a placement ID. 11223344 integer
member required (see note above) The member ID from Microsoft Monetize. Must be used with inv_code. 1234 integer
inv_code required (see note above) The inventory code from Microsoft Monetize. Must be used with member. 'abc123' string
allow_smaller_sizes optional If true, ads smaller than the values in your ad unit’s sizes array will be allowed to serve. Defaults to false. true boolean
use_pmt_rule optional If true, Microsoft Monetize will return net price to Prebid.js after publisher payment rules have been applied. true boolean
keywords optional A comma-delimited string of key-value pairs (or terms) applied to this specific ad slot on the page. Mapped to buy-side segment targeting (login required). A maximum of 100 key/value pairs can be defined at the request/page level. Each tag can have up to 100 additional key/value pairs defined. If you want to pass keywords for all adUnits, please use the relevant keywords fields in the First Party Data feature. Note that to use keyword with the Prebid Server adapter, that feature must be enabled for your account by an Microsoft Monetize account manager. pet=dog,food,brand=oldroy string
traffic_source_code optional Specifies the third-party source of this impression. 'my_traffic_source' string
pubclick optional Specifies a publisher-supplied URL for third-party click tracking. This is just a placeholder into which the publisher can insert their own click tracker. This parameter should be used for an unencoded tracker. This parameter is expected to be the last parameter in the URL. Please note that the click tracker placed in this parameter will only fire if the creative winning the auction is using Microsoft Monetize click tracking properly. 'http://click.adserver.com/' string
ext_inv_code optional Specifies predefined value passed on the query string that can be used in reporting. The value must be entered into the system before it is logged. '10039' string
ext_imp_id optional Specifies the unique identifier of an externally generated auction. 'bacbab02626452b097f6030b3c89ac05' string
banner_frameworks optional Array of integers listing API frameworks for Banner supported by the publisher. [1,2] array of integers

NOTE We recommend to use the “use_pmt_rule” parameter set to true, when integrating, to ensure the bidding is net.

Migrating from the AppNexus Bid Adapter & Bid Params

If you are migrating from the AppNexus bid adapter, a number of the previously available AppNexus bid parameters have been deprecated as available options for the Microsoft bid parameters. These deprecated bid parameters are still available however, they’re just read from other standarized locations offered within Prebid.js. This change was implemented to help us align better to the publisher-aligned features (such as First Party Data) to use a single setup for many bidders.

The Microsoft Bid Adapter connects to Microsoft’s advertising exchange for bids. This adapter supports banner, video (instream and outstream), and native ad formats using OpenRTB 2.5 standards.

For reference, here is the IAB OpenRTB 2.5 specification

The following table shows how the bid parameters have changed between the two adapters:

AppNexus Parameter Microsoft Parameter Description
params.placementId params.placement_id Placement ID (only the underscore case is now supported in the name, value only accepts integers)
params.member params.member Member ID (value only accepts integers)
params.inv_code params.inv_code Inventory code (unchanged)
params.publisher_id Use ortb2.publisher.id Publisher ID (moved to ortb2 config)
params.frameworks params.banner_frameworks Banner API frameworks array (small name change to clarify banner only)
params.user Use ortb2.user User data (moved to ortb2 config)
params.allow_smaller_sizes params.allow_smaller_sizes Allow smaller ad sizes (unchanged)
params.use_pmt_rule params.use_pmt_rule Use payment rule (unchanged)
params.keywords params.keywords Tag/Imp-level keywords (use ORTB format of comma-delimited string value; eg 'pet=cat,food,brand=fancyfeast')
params.video Use mediaTypes.video Video parameters (moved to mediaTypes)
params.video.frameworks Use mediaTypes.video.api Video API frameworks (moved to mediaTypes)
params.app Use ortb2.app App data (moved to ortb2 config)
params.reserve Use bidfloor module Reserve price (use bidfloor module)
params.position Use mediaTypes.banner.pos Banner position (moved to mediaTypes)
params.traffic_source_code params.traffic_source_code Traffic source code (unchanged)
params.supply_type Use ortb2.site or ortb2.app Supply type (moved to ortb2 config)
params.pub_click params.pubclick Publisher click URL (dropped underscore to align to endpoint)
params.ext_inv_code params.ext_inv_code External inventory code (unchanged)
params.external_imp_id params.ext_imp_id External impression ID (shortend to ext)

Keywords

With the AppNexus adapter, keywords followed this format: keyname=keyvalue1,keyvalue2,keyvalue3

In the Microsoft Bid Adapter, the new required format is: keyname=keyvalue1,keyname=keyvalue2,keyname=keyvalue3

First Party Data

Publishers should use the ortb2 method of setting First Party Data.

PBS/PSP supports all first party data fields: site, user, segments, and imp-level first party data.

"Send All Bids" Ad Server Keys

These are the bidder-specific keys that would be targeted within GAM in a Send-All-Bids scenario. GAM truncates keys to 20 characters.
