Announcing beta launch of Display & Video 360 API v3

We’re pleased to announce that Display & Video 360 API v3 is available in public beta starting today.

v3 includes a number of new features and breaking changes. Here are some of the changes introduced in v3:

• You can now fully manage proximity location lists, enabling you to use the advertisers.locationLists.assignedLocations service to create and delete locations assigned to TARGETING_LOCATION_TYPE_PROXIMITY LocationList resources.
• You can now more easily enable optimized targeting for your line items using the new boolean enableOptimizedTargeting field, which replaces the targetingExpansionLevel field in the TargetingExpansionConfig object.
• The billingConfig field is now required in the Advertiser resource and must be included when making advertisers.create requests. To help with this, a new billingConfig field has been added to the Partner resource to surface the billing information for the parent partner.
• YoutubeAdGroup and YoutubeAdGroupAd resources have been renamed to AdGroup and AdGroupAd.

More detailed information about this release can be found in our release notes. Follow the steps in our migration guide to migrate from v2 to v3. Be aware that breaking changes may be made to v3 while in beta and will be listed in the Display & Video 360 API release notes.

If you run into issues or need help with these new features or samples, please contact us using our support contact form.
