v1.57.0

What’s Changed

Two important changes in this 1.57 to be aware of:

Legacy /auction Endpoint Removed

• This was the original (non-OpenRtb) PBS protocol from 2017. Prebid.js hasn't supported it for a long time and Prebid.org members report essentially no usage of this endpoint. (#1145)

Rounding out the First Party Data feature from 1.56:

• Fix FPD decoding Exception (#1155)
• FPD bidderconfig: merge fpd values into ortb2 (#1149)
• FPD permissions: remove site.content.data and user.data when not permitted (#1146)
• Fix NPE in FPD when targeting.bidders is not defined (#1154)

Remaining items:

• Remove AdUnitConfig support as it is not used anymore (#1157)

• AMX bidder: Skip bids with invalid extension and add error (#1135)

v1.56.0

First Party Data 2.0

The big feature in this release is the bulk of the Prebid Server First Party Data 2.0 changes (#1092)

The specific PBS changes are highlighted here, but this release doesn't contain the following changes, which will come in future releases:

• bidderconfig support for ortb2
• data permissions for user.data and site.content.data
• AMP support

PBS host companies shouldn't notice any changes with this release -- support for the original 'fpd' syntax is still present. This release adds support for the new 'ortb2' convention.

What Else Changed

• Fix (user,site,app).data to be merged to (user,site,app).ext.data (#1141)
• Reserve "all, context, general, prebid, skadn, data" as imp[].ext.ATTR exceptions (#1133)

v1.53.0

Notice

This release adds the "status" column to the default account SQL query. If your accounts table doesn't contain a status column or if the values in your table do not include "inactive", you may need to update the configured query.

What’s Changed

• Default account configuration and account status support (#959) - aligning with PBS-Go, PBS-Java now queries the status column from the accounts table and when account validation is on, will reject accounts of status "inactive". See application-settings.md for the account query.
• Fix passing ext.prebid.targeting.* fields to bid adapters for AMP (#1108)
• Fix passing ext.prebid.targeting.* fields to bid adapters (#1105)
• Update PBS to generate bid ids for cache and events (#1100) - part of the auction.generate-bid-id feature needed to join events offline

• Update IX bidder to support all MediaTypes. (#1098)
• Add errorWithKey for Conditional logger (#1099)
• Added pbsConvertCurrency function for adapters (#968) - this function can be used by bid adapters to convert bid floors to the currency expected by their endpoint.
• Fix undefined Account status fetching (#1101)
• Add adapter prefix to bidder specific metrics (#973)
• Change GVL URL (#1086)
• Update appnexus ext request when include targeting is not null (#913)
• Add log with key to not depend on message (#1089)
• Fix setting Rubicon size id using video placement (#1103)
• Log missing video size id for RubiconBidder (#877)
• Implement new logic for video sizeId in Rubicon bidder (#931)
