Yahoo Ad Tech Native Ad Platform¶

Welcome to the Yahoo Native Ad Platform!
The Yahoo Ad Tech Native is a RESTful API based on a set of objects and services that enable API partners, developers and account managers to create, manage and retrieve advertiser data for ads, ad groups and campaigns programmatically.
Overview¶
Using the API, developers can
automate and manage campaigns at scale
read data for filtered lists of ads
specify objects for targeting
customize mobile search ads by using text variables
retrieve ad extensions that are grouped by type for a specific parent
query reporting at different entity levels and fetch reports in CSV format
take advantage of innovative mobile and desktop ad formats for maximum ROI and conversion
Important
More than 40% of all Native ad spend flows through the API, compared to the Yahoo Native UI. The saving in time and resource allocation makes using the programmatic API a more cost-effective investment for partners and developers.
Integrations¶
For onboarding, the API requires that you sign up, authenticate and obtain an API key for access. The steps are easy to follow, enabling you to integrate with Yahoo Native and start creating ads.

Explore the RESTful objects – Ad, Ad Extensions, Ad Group, Advertisers, Campaigns, Keyword, Shared Site Link and Targeting Attribute – and their relationships in the v3 API data model.
