Setting up an API implementation of a Deal Line Item to target a deal requires configuring a number of different properties on different API objects. This guide will explain the process of creating and configuring a deal line item using our API.

Overview

Deal line items are a powerful feature that allows network and publisher clients to better support their buyers by providing prepackaged, user-friendly buying tools.

Setting up a deal line item typically involves making requests to the following API service endpoints to access or create the corresponding API objects:

API Endpoint	API Object	Detailed Reference
`https://api.appnexus.com/advertiser`	advertiser	Advertiser Service
`https://api.appnexus.com/insertion-order`	insertion-order	Insertion Order Service
`https://api.appnexus.com/deal`	deal	Deal Service
`https://api.appnexus.com/profile`	profile	Profile Service
`https://api.appnexus.com/line-item`	line-item (ALI)	Line Item - ALI Service

This guide uses cURL examples for all requests. You can use other API request tools (e.g., Postman), but you’ll then need to adjust the examples accordingly.

Prerequisites

Before beginning this setup, be sure to read API Getting Started. It provides information on testing environments, usage constraints, API semantics (running commands, filtering, sorting, etc.), and best practices.

Order of operations

API objects often have dependencies on other API objects and there is an order you must follow in creating or accessing objects when you create a deal line item. For example, you must provide the IDs of the following API objects:
- advertiser
- insertion-order
- deal
- profile.

To obtain the IDs for these objects, you'll need to either create them or already have access to them. The steps in this guide follow the typical order of operations required to create a deal line item.

Best practices

For a general list of best practices to follow when working with the API, see API Best Practices. The following are some best practices that are specific to a deal line item setup:

Set the state field of the deal line item to "inactive" until the line item is fully configured and ready for testing.
Note the ID of any objects you create. The IDs of objects you create are returned in the response body of requests. You'll often need these IDs later so copying them when they're returned can reduce the number of additional GET requests you have to make to obtain them.

Setup procedure

The following steps will guide you through the process of setting up a deal line item with typical configurations:

Step 1 - Obtain an authorization token
Step 2 - Create or access an advertiser
Step 3 - Create or access an insertion order
Step 4 - Create a deal
Step 5 - Create a deal line item profile
Step 6 - Create a deal line item

Authentication

Step 1 - Obtain an authorization token

First, you’ll need to obtain an authorization token. You must then include this authorization token in all subsequent requests (see Authentication Service for more information). To obtain an authorization token, do the following:

Create a JSON file containing your username and password.

{
    "auth": {
        "username" : "USERNAME",
        "password" : "PASSWORD"
    }
}

Make a POST request to the /auth endpoint with this JSON file in the request body (see Authentication Service for more information). In the cURL request below, the authorization token returned is stored in the “cookies” file.
```
curl -c cookies -X POST -d @authentication.json 'https://api.appnexus.com/auth'
```
Check the response body of your request (see Example Response below). If your request was successful, you’ll get a "status" of “OK” and the "token" field will be populated with the authentication token value.

Example response
```
{
   "response" : {
      "token" : "authn:225692:2d787d1838283:lax1",
      "status" : "OK"      
   }
}
```

Advertiser

Step 2 - Create or access an advertiser

You'll need to create or access an advertiser from which to create a deal line item. For deal line items, advertisers are set up the same way as augmented line items.

JSON fields for advertiser (required and useful optional fields)

Field	Type	Required or Optional	Description
`name`	string	Required	The name of the advertiser
`timezone`	enum	Optional	The timezone of the advertiser. See API Timezones for details and accepted values.
`use_insertion_orders`	boolean	Required	This field must be set to `true` in order to create deal line items.

If you don't already have an advertiser to use, create an advertiser by doing the following (see Advertiser Service for more information):

Create an advertiser JSON:

$ cat advertiser.json
{
    "advertiser": {
        "name": "Deal Line Item Example Advertiser",
        "timezone": "US/Pacific"
    }
}

Make a POST request to the https://api.appnexus.com/advertiser endpoint with this advertiser JSON and an appropriate member_id.
```
$ curl -b cookies -c cookies -X POST -d @advertiser.json 'https://api.appnexus.com/advertiser?member_id=2378'
```
Check the response body of your request. If your request was successful, you’ll get a "status" of “OK” and you’ll see the updates you made.
Note the advertiser ID in the response body so you can use it when you create the deal line item in Step 6 - Create a deal line item

Insertion order

Step 3 - Create or access an insertion order

You'll need to create or access an insertion order to create a deal line item. Deal line items require a seamless insertion order (see required fields below).

JSON fields for seamless insertion order (required and useful optional fields)

Field	Type	Required or Optional	Description
`name`	string	Required	The name of the advertiser
`budget_intervals`	array of objects	Required	In order for an insertion order created via the API to be seamless, you must use the `budget_intervals` field.
`budget_type`	enum	Optional	Budget type will translate to all deals below the IO. For example, if you set up an Impression Budget Type IO, you can't put deal line items with a Revenue budget below that IO.
`daily_budget`	double	Optional	Field within `budget_intervals` you can use to set daily budgets at the insertion order level for Revenue `budget_type`.
`lifetime_budget`	double	Optional	Field within `budget_intervals` you can use to set lifetime budgets at the insertion order level for Revenue `budget_type`.
`daily_budget_imps`	int	Optional	Field within `budget_intervals` you can use to set daily budgets at the IO level for Impression `budget_type`.
`lifetime_budget_imps`	int	Optional	Field within `budget_intervals` you can use to set lifetime budgets at the IO level for Impression `budget_type`.

If you don't already have an insertion order to use, create an insertion order by doing the following (see Insertion Order Service for more information):

Create an insertion order JSON (two examples are shown below):

Example JSON: No end date, no budget

$ cat insertion-order-noenddate.json
{
    "insertion-order": {
        "name": "Deal Line Item Example IO",
        "budget_intervals": [{
            "start_date": "2019-10-10 00:00:00",
            "end_date": null,
            "daily_budget": null,
            "daily_budget_imps": null,
            "enable_pacing": true,
            "lifetime_budget": null,
            "lifetime_budget_imps": null,
            "lifetime_pacing": false
        }],
        "budget_type": "impression"
    }
}

Example JSON: flights, impression budgets

$ cat insertion-order-flights.json
{
    "insertion-order": {
        "name": "Deal Line Item Example IO",
        "budget_intervals": [

            {
                "start_date": "2019-10-10 00:00:00",
                "end_date": "2019-10-12 23:59:59",
                "daily_budget": null,
                "daily_budget_imps": 10,
                "enable_pacing": true,
                "lifetime_budget": null,
                "lifetime_budget_imps": 980,
                "lifetime_pacing": false
            },
            {
                "start_date": "2019-10-13 00:00:00",
                "end_date": "2019-10-18 23:59:59",
                "daily_budget": null,
                "daily_budget_imps": 10,
                "enable_pacing": true,
                "lifetime_budget": null,
                "lifetime_budget_imps": 100,
                "lifetime_pacing": false
            }
        "budget_type": "impression"
        ]
    }
}

Make a POST request to the https://api.appnexus.com/insertion-order endpoint with this insertion order JSON and an appropriate advertiser_id and member_id.

Example request: no end date, no budget

$ curl -b cookies -c cookies -X POST -d @insertion-order-noenddate.json 'https://api.appnexus.com/insertion-order?advertiser_id=2605036&member_id=2378'

Example request: flights, impression budgets

$ curl -b cookies -c cookies -X POST -d @insertion-order-flights.json 'https://api.appnexus.com/insertion-order?advertiser_id=2605036&member_id=2378'

Check the response body of your request. If your request was successful, you’ll get a "status" of “OK” and you’ll see the updates you made.
Note the insertion order ID in the response body so you can use it when you create the deal line item in Step 6 - Create a deal line item.

Deal

Step 4 - Create a deal

You'll need to create the deal you want to associate with the deal line item.

JSON fields for deal

Field	Type	Required or Optional	Description
`name`	string	Required	The name of the deal Note: The buyer will see this name.
`buyer`	object	Required	The buying bidder and member who can target this deal. A deal will only ever use the `buyer` field or the `buyer_seats` field, not both. For more details, see the `"Buyer"` section in the Deal Service.
`buyer_seats`	object	Required	The buying bidder and seat who can target this deal. A deal will only ever use the buyer field or the `buyer_seats` field, not both. For more details, see the Buyer Seats section in the Deal Service.
`version`	int	Required	This field must be set to `"2"` in order to associate the deal to a deal line item.
`auction_type`	object	Optional	The auction type of the deal (Standard/Fixed/Market). This value must match what's set on the deal line item (via `revenue_type`/`min_revenue_value`/`revenue_value`). Note: This field must be set upon creation, but it is not used on deal line items. It will not be updated if the line item is updated and in the auction; only the line item values are considered.

To create a deal, do the following (see Deal Service for more information):

Create a deal JSON:

$ cat deal.json
{
    "deal": {
        "name": "Deal Line Item Example Deal",
        "buyer": {
            "id": 2379
        },
        "version": 2
    }
}

Make a POST request to the https://api.appnexus.com/deal endpoint with this deal JSON and an appropriate member_id.
```
$ curl -b cookies -c cookies -X POST -d @deal.json 'https://api.appnexus.com/deal?member_id=2378'
```
Check the response body of your request. If your request was successful, you’ll get a "status" of “OK” and you’ll see the updates you made.
Note the deal ID in the response body so you can use it when you create the deal line item in Step 6 - Create a deal line item.

Profile

Step 5 - Create a deal line item profile

Next, create a deal line item profile to use in targeting with the deal line item. Be sure to note the ID for this profile for later use. See Profile Service for more information.

Optional JSON fields for deal line item profile

There are many optional fields available in the deal line item profile for targeting with the deal line item. For example, you can target properties associated with inventory, inventory types, allowlists, blocklists, device types, and so forth. See the Profile Service for more information on available fields.

To create a deal line item profile, do the following (see Profile Service for more information):

Example: Profile creation with country, frequency/recency caps, and view rate/completion rate thresholds

$ cat profile.json

{
    "profile": {
        "country_action": "include",
        "country_targets": [{
            "active": true,
            "code": "US",
            "id": 233,
            "name": "United States"
        }],
        "engagement_rate_targets": [{
                "engagement_rate_pct": 25,
                "engagement_rate_type": "video_completion"
            },
            {
                "engagement_rate_pct": 50,
                "engagement_rate_type": "predicted_iab_video_view_rate"
            }
        ],
        "max_day_imps": 10,
        "min_minutes_per_imp": 300
    }
}

Example: Profile creation without targeting

> cat profile.json

{
    "profile": {
    }
}

Make a POST request to the https://api.appnexus.com/profile endpoint with this deal profile JSON and an appropriate advertiser_id.

Example: Profile creation with country, frequency recency caps, and view rate/completion rate thresholds
```
> curl -b cookies -c cookies -X POST -d @profile.json 'https://api.appnexus.com/profile?advertiser_id=3410892&member_id=2378'
```
Example: Profile creation without targeting
```
> curl -b cookies -c cookies -X POST -d @profile.json 'https://api.appnexus.com/profile?advertiser_id=3410892&member_id=2378'
```
Check the response body of your request. If your request was successful, you’ll get a "status" of “OK” and you’ll see the updates you made.
Note the profile ID in the response body so you can use it when you create the deal line item in Step 6 - Create a deal line item.

Line Item

Step 6 - Create a deal line item

Finally, you'll need to create the deal line item to associate the deal ID and the deal line item profile you created in Step 5 - Create a deal line item profile.

JSON fields for deal line item

Field	Type	Description
`insertion_orders`	array	Array containing the insertion order ID you want to associate this deal line item to.
`name`	string	Name of the deal line item Note: The buyer will not see this.
`ad_types`	array	The type of creative used for this deal line item. Possible values: - `"banner"` - `"video"` (includes audio types as well) - `"native"`
`line_item_type`	enum	Must be set to `"standard_v2"` to create a deal line item.
`profile_id`	integer	Profile ID associated with the deal line item (Step 5 - Create a deal line item profile)
`budget_intervals`	array of objects	Always include a `start_date`. Leave `end_date` `null` for a no end date deal line item.
`deals`	array of objects	The `id` field within deals must be the ID of the deal you created in Step 4 - Create a deal.
`supply_strategies`	object	An object containing several boolean fields used to designate which inventory supply sources you would like to target. For a deal line item, the `managed` field must be set to `true`. The `rtb`, `programmatic_guaranteed`, and `deals` fields must be set to `false`.
`revenue_type`	enum	`cpm` for Fixed Price (CPM) deal, `vcpm` for Standard Price (Dynamic CPM) and Market Price deal.
`revenue_value`	double	If you set the `revenue_type` to `cpm` (Fixed), set the fixed price using `revenue_value`. If you're using Standard or Market Price, set this value to `null`.
`valuation`	object	If you set the `revenue_type` to `vcpm` (Standard), set the floor price using `min_revenue_value` in the valuation object. If you're using `cpm` (Fixed) or Market Price, set the value of `min_revenue_value` `null`.
`auction_event`	object	Object for auction event type properties: The `kpi_auction_type_id`, `payment_auction_type_id`, and `revenue_auction_type_id` fields of the `auction_event` object must all be set to `1`.
`bid_object_type`	enum	Must be set to `"deal"` for a deal line item.

Useful optional JSON fields

Field	Type	Description
`priority`	int	Set the priority of the deal. Any priority below reselling creates an open deal, any priority above reselling creates a private deal.
`budget_intervals`	array of objects	Set a budget on the deal using fields within `budget_intervals` including: `daily_budget`, `daily_budget_imps`, `lifetime_budget`, or `lifetime_budget_imps`. Use the fields with no `imp` if the deal line item has revenue budget type or the fields with `_imp` at the end if the deal line item has revenue type impression. You can either have a daily or lifetime budget, not both. A lifetime budget that sits across flights ends up being broken out across each flight via the API. Remember that if your deal has no end date, it can't have a budget.
`state`	enum	State of the deal line item. Default is `active`, so set to `inactive` if you don't want the deal to go live right away.

To create a deal line item, do the following (see Line Item Service for more information):

Create a deal line item JSON (you'll need an existing advertiser ID, insertion order ID, deal ID, and profile ID).
