Resources

The following table lists fields that require attention when you create Verizon Media native lines.

Field

Description

Data Type

Required

supplyType

The source of the line’s supply (Verizon Media or third-party). Set to VERIZON_MEDIA for Verizon Media native lines.

If you use a value other than the following, POST/PUT requests will fail with an appropriate error message.

Allowed values:

  • VERIZON_MEDIA

  • THIRD_PARTY

string

Optional; required for Verizon Media native lines; use when isNativeEnabled is true.

language

The language key that Verizon Media uses for serving Verizon Media native ads. See Languages for information on the Language endpoint.

string

Required for Verizon Media native lines; use when isNativeEnabled is true and supplyType = VERIZON_MEDIA.

isNativeEnabled

Set to True for Verizon Media native lines.

Boolean

Optional; required for Verizon Media native lines.

Create

To create a line, make a POST request to the line resource.

POST /traffic/lines

Attributes

If you don’t set the supplyType but isNativeEnabled is true, the Traffic API assumes you are creating a third-party native line. If you don’t set isNativeEnabled but supplyType is VERIZON_MEDIA, the request will fail because supplyType is only valid for native lines.
