How it is used

Each system usually mints its own BidRequest.id, so rid is the only link back to the upstream request. It helps in discrepancy investigations and costs a few bytes.

Example

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

{
  "id": "req-1",
  "source": {
    "schain": {
      "nodes": [
        {
          "rid": "d8f2b7a1-3c44-4e0b-9a51-7f2c6e1d0b93"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
