There are 3 types of inventory available for an insertion order:

  1. They have default access to inventory from their own set of publishers. No super admin approval is needed for insertion orders. Demand customers can approve their own insertion orders with this inventory.

  2. They have selected access to Platform Connection inventory. After completing a credit application the super admin can enable a demand customer to bid on inventory from the Platform Connection inventory chooser

1. Q. What is Platform Connection Inventory?
A: Platform Connection is the inventory from other demand customers' private exchange publishers. Private exchange publishers' inventory is only available to the demand customer who added the publishers by default. When the demand customer ticks the "Enable Platform Exchange" box under the domain website options in one of their publishers, it allows their inventory to show up in the "Platform Exchange" inventory chooser of other demand customers using the platform.

3. They have selected access to SSP inventory. After completing a credit application the super admin can enable a demand customer to bid on inventory from the SSP inventory chooser

1. Q:What is SSP Inventory?
A: SSP inventory comes from buy side OpenRTB partners which are streaming inventory bid requests to the ____ Exchange platform via OpenRTB bid requests.

A super admin may select any of these to add to an insertion order, but a demand customer cannot. They must explicitly be approved to add Platform Connection and SSP inventory to their insertion order.

NOTE THAT: Private Exchange, Platform Connection, and SSP inventory chosen for an insertion order are not used in the bidding process. Inventory items chosen in an insertion order are only used as defaults for subsequent line items. Only the inventory chosen for line items is used to fill publisher inventory requests of all kinds.
