Manage targeting profiles

Use these methods in the Microsoft Store promotions API to select the users, geographies and inventory types that you want to target for each delivery line in a promotional ad campaign. Targeting profiles can be created and reused across multiple delivery lines.

For more information about the relationship between targeting profiles and ad campaigns, delivery lines, and creatives, see Run ad campaigns using Microsoft Store services.

Prerequisites

To use these methods, you need to first do the following:

  • If you have not done so already, complete all the prerequisites for the Microsoft Store promotions API.
  • Obtain an Azure AD access token to use in the request header for these methods. After you obtain an access token, you have 60 minutes to use it before it expires. After the token expires, you can obtain a new one.

These methods have the following URIs.

Method type Request URI Description

PUT https://manage.devcenter.microsoft.com/v1.0/my/promotion/targeting-profile/{targetingProfileId} Edits the targeting profile specified by targetingProfileId.
GET https://manage.devcenter.microsoft.com/v1.0/my/promotion/targeting-profile/{targetingProfileId} Gets the targeting profile specified by targetingProfileId.
Header Type Description

Tracking ID GUID Optional. An ID that tracks the call flow.

Request body

The POST and PUT methods require a JSON request body with the required fields of a Targeting profile object and any additional fields you want to set or change.
