      • Create, manage, and read core objects including advertisers, campaigns, line items, targeting and deals.

      • Optimize campaign performance on the fly by adding or removing line items or making adjustments to targeting and bid prices based on current reports.

      • Perform read, update and create actions across seats.

      • Comprehensive line item targeting.

      • Safely test your API integrations in a sandbox environment that mimics the production environment, but won’t affect live campaigns.

      • Query reporting at different entity levels and fetch reports in CSV format.

      • Install and configure the Postman Toolkit to test and verify your DSP APIs.
