April 2026 Display & Video 360 API Update

Executive Signal Summary

Google announced the April 14, 2026 update to the Display & Video 360 (DV360) API. The release adds support for additional Exchange and ThirdPartyVendor values, exposes AdAsset identifier fields in objects used by AdGroupAd resources, and introduces beta support for Demand Gen resource management. Demand Gen beta is currently limited to allowlisted customers; allowlisted partners can see Demand Gen line items, ad groups and targeting in relevant get/list calls and can create, update and delete Demand Gen line items, ad groups, ads and targeting. Google says full Demand Gen support will reach general availability later in 2026. The post directs developers to the release notes, updated client libraries, a Demand Gen guide, and the Google Advertising and Measurement Community Discord for questions.
