Manage demand channel settings

To manage the data you share with demand channels, you can review and update your demand channel settings. You can apply different settings to different demand channels. For example, you can turn on Creative restrictions for Authorized Buyers and turn it off for Open Bidders.

To create exceptions for individual bidders, you can create override groups. Override groups let you apply specific settings to a chosen group of bidders in a demand channel.
