Field facts

Path: source.schain.nodes.name
Object: SupplyChainNode
Type: string
Requirement: Optional
Added: OpenRTB 2.6-202204
Spec section: 3.2.26

How it is used

It exists for sellers that sellers.json cannot name, for example confidential entries. Repeating data that sellers.json already provides adds bytes to every request and can drift out of date.

Example

Where the field sits in a payload, with everything else left out:

{
  "id": "req-1",
  "source": {
    "schain": {
      "nodes": [
        {
          "name": "Northwind Publishing Ltd"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
