Using sellers.json and SupplyChain

The following items provide compliance with IAB specifications aimed at increasing trust in the supply chain: sellers.json and the OpenRTB SupplyChain object. For more information about these IAB specifications, see the IAB site.

DT sellers.json

DT must post a publicly available sellers.json file on our website listing our complete list of publishers. As an advertiser, use this file to cross‑reference the app‑ads.txt entries provided by the publisher. Use Publisher ID and SSP Domain to identify entities across both specifications.

DT provides our complete list of publishers in our sellers.json file.

Implementing the SupplyChain Object

The SupplyChain object outlines the entire supply path from the publisher to the advertiser, detailing all intermediary reseller entities involved in the process. DT introduces the first node in the chain to inform our buyers of our direct publisher relationships. Any advertising system that resells DT supply is required to add its own node, ensuring that DSPs can trace the full payment chain all the way back to the publisher.

DT supports the SupplyChain object for OpenRTB, API, and tag integrations. To enable SupplyChain , contact your DT Representative.

OpenRTB Implementation

DT supports all required OpenRTB schain attributes. For OpenRTB 2.5, the SupplyChain object is in BidRequest.Source.ext.schain. For more details, see the OpenRTB documentation for the Source object.

The following snippet is a sample bid request that contains the SupplyChain (schain) object in an OpenRTB 2.5 integration:

JSON

{
    {
        "schain": {
            "ver": "1.0",
            "complete": 1,
            "nodes": [
                {
                    "asi": "fyber.com",
                    "sid": "222222",
                    "hp": "1",
                    "rid": "9999381608846099999"
                }
            ]
        }
    }

API or Tag Implementation

Per the IAB spec, DT supports the $SCHAIN macro for Single Hop - Chain Complete. This macro returns a string-serialized SupplyChain list with the advertising system’s node appended.
