Introduction 1.1 Brief The FreeWheel OpenRTB Supply Integration API (oRTB-S) has been created in order to make it possible to deploy and maintain an effective OpenRTB supply integration with Freewheel to pass inventory to downstream demand sources to obtain incremental demand. This page is intended only for customers with FWSSP paperwork, ad servers that are utilized by FWSSP customers, or other validated use cases . ORTB is a standard that was created by the IAB for the purpose of creating a universal language that all entities participating in an auction can speak in order to conduct business. Auctions are the backbone of programmatic advertising and ensure that publishers are earning the highest possible price for their ad space. You can find more information on the ORTB 2.5 specification here . The FreeWheel oRTB-S integration has been implemented using the oRTB 2.5 Standard with support for oRTB 2.6 dynamic podding. To further clarify, not all attributes from the 2.5 and 2.6 specs are supported, to assure which ones are supported please see the individual object tables below. This ensures compliance with the common data structure and communication layers of ORTB. For a complete list of mandatory, recommended and optional fields available within the Freewheel API, please refer to the Ad Request section of this guide. 1.2 Features at-a-glance The FreeWheel OpenRTB Supply API supports the below key features. Please note that FreeWheel also supports single impression ORTB 2.5 requests and single bid responses. However, we recommend using a combination of the below features for increased efficiency and performance. Feature Note(s) Dynamic Ad Podding Under ORTB 2.6 spec (see Video Object ) Dynamic Ad Podding cannot be active at the same time as Multi-bid or Multi-Imp Will automatically be detected in the request if dynamic podding is available Multi-Bid Up to 5 bids supported per ad request imp object Must be requested to Freewheel Account Team to review and enable Multi-Imp (Structured Podding) Up to 5 imp objects supported per ad request Must be requested to Freewheel Account Team to review and enable 2. Pre-integration steps Prior to the start of the integration, publishers must provide to their account team the following: Server locations from publishers Pingable (responsive to ICMP) external IP addresses from each respective server location. This is to enable our engineers to test Round Trip Time. (Alternatively you can run a test yourself once the ORTB Module has been enabled on your Network: see Section 4.2 Endpoint below) Estimated traffic per geo Daily max QPS and average QPS The ad-server you are using Following approval from the Freewheel account team, FreeWheel resources will enable the oRTB-S integration on your network and provide you the necessary key values for operation. 3. Publisher Pre-requisites Be a Freewheel SSP Client Network Endpoint Prefix ID Network-specific custom end-point Network ID Profile ID Site Section ID(s) User matching URL (for web inventory) - Provided by Freewheel User sync redirect URL (for web inventory) - provided by publisher 4.1 Configuration 4.1 Data Centres The Freewheel ORTB servers cover three geographical zones: Europe US-East US-West 4.2 Endpoint Publishers will be provided with a unique endpoint for which to send requests. Endpoints will have a variable En dpoint Prefix ID which is the Network ID (see Glossary) in hexadecimal format. This Endpoint Prefix ID will need to be added as a prefix within the URL. Format : https://prefix .v.fwmrm.net/ortb/ssp Example with a custom prefix included : https:// 83b9 6 .v.fwmrm.net/ortb/ssp If you have not supplied us with your pingable server IP addresses, you can run a test against the custom end-point with the following command and provide us with the results : mtr --report-wide --report-cycles=200 -nTP 443 https://[your_custom_prefix].v.fwmrm.net/ortb/ssp 4.3 Response The oRTB-S API will respond with a status code . For successful auctions, creative information and CPM will be included in the response. See Bid Response section for more information. 4.4 User Syncing 4.4.1 Non-Cookie Environments For in-app and OTT environments, we use the device IFA which does not need to be synced between the publisher and Freewheel. These can be passed directly in the ad request. 4.4.2 Cookie-Based Environments *This section is only necessary for web inventory User Syncing, also known as Cookie Syncing, is the process of sharing and matching HTTP cookies between various partners. The concept of Cookie Tracking is restrictive in the amount of information that can be collected and actioned upon for advertisers. This is because cookies are limited to domain and have varying expiration dates. In order for Freewheel to be able to identify, target and frequency cap across various digital properties in accordance with campaign KPI's, Freewheel needs to know how to distinguish one user from another that are sent to us in the publisher's ad request. 4.4.3 User-matching *This section is only necessary for web inventory FreeWheel supports a supply-initiated user sync process where the upstream ad server is responsible for hosting the matching table. FreeWheel will include an auto user sync pixel in the ad response. When fired, it redirects to your sync URL and passes FreeWheel's user ID for matching . Please note: Freewheel, in the ad response, will provide the below sync url which will redirect to the ad server's sync URL, providing the FreeWheel user ID. FreeWheel requires that incoming oRTB-S requests from the ad server for web inventory contain the user.buyeruid field populated with FreeWheel's user/cookie ID FreeWheel currently supports the below privacy URL parameters appended to the sync URL &gdpr=xxx&gdpr_consent=xxx&us_privacy=xxx&gpp=xxx&gpp_sid=xxx&_fw_is_lat=xxx&_fw_atts=xxx&_fw_coppa=xxx The matching table that must be hosted by the ad server will create the linking between client cookies and Freewheel cookies *There are a couple of requirements in setting up user sync Ad server domain needs to be allow listed with FreeWheel. For this, please reach out to your FreeWheel Account Manager. Input the ad server domain into the cr parameter of the FreeWheel sync pixel. Please note that the URL to be redirected to will need to be percent encoded in practice : http://user-sync.fwmrm.net/ad/u?mode=echo&cr=https://www.yourdomain.com/fw-syncpixel.gif?_uid=#{user.id} 4.5 Request 'tmax' In order to avoid timeouts and to accommodate downstream hops, we highly recommend that a tmax of at least 500ms is passed in the ad request. In cases where this not possible to change, please inform your Freewheel point of contact in order to assess how we can best manage this and avoid any technical implications. 4.6 Gzip Compression Support FreeWheel OpenRTB-S supports gzip compression of ad requests and responses. Gzipped requests must indicate their encoding via header: Content-Encoding: gzip FreeWheel also supports gzipped responses. If the request contains the header: Accept-Encoding: gzip And response body size > 128 bytes, FreeWheel will gzip the response and provide header: Content-Encoding: gzip Please speak with the FreeWheel team before enabling gzip requests. 5. Ad Request Body 5.1 Freewheel Specific IDs This section covers the Freewheel-specific core fields that need to be passed in order for the request to be processed successfully. 5.1.1 Site Section ID Site Section ID is a placement identifier that is used as the most granular way to segment ad retrieval. Requests must contain a Site Section ID. For multi-imp requests, only one Site Section ID is supported. Passing multiple objects with different Site Section IDs is not supported Attribute Type Priority (From high to low) Example Comment(s) Scope ext.custom_site_section_id object.string 1 "ext": { "custom_site_section_id": "ss_12345" } The value should be a custom Site Section tag or numeric Site Section ID. Mandatory - request must contain one of these values imp[0].ext.custom_site_section_id object.string 2 "ext": { "custom_site_section_id": "ss_12345" } The value should be a custom Site Section tag or numeric Site Section ID. app.id object.string 3 "app": { "id": "ss_abcd12345" } -or- "app": { "id": "12345" } For app inventory only The value could be a custom Site Section tag or numeric Site Section ID. site.id object.string 3 "site": { "id": "ss_abcd12345" } -or- "site": { "id": "12345" } For web inventory only The value could be a custom Site Section tag or numeric Site Section ID. 5.1.2 Network ID Distributor's FreeWheel network ID.
