Google Adds Partial SDF Upload to DV360
Google announced Partial Structured Data File (Partial SDF) Upload for Display & Video 360 on 2026-05-05. The feature allows Line Item Structured Data Files (SDFs) to include only selected subsets of columns instead of the full ~120+ column Line Item SDF format. Partial SDFs make files smaller and easier to manage, enabling higher per-file resource limits, faster uploads and updates, and reduced risk of unintended changes to other line item settings. Partial SDFs are uploaded via the existing Display & Video 360 UI with no additional enrollment or configuration required. Documentation, supported column lists, and sample files are available in Google’s developer guides, and Google invited feedback via its Advertising and Measurement Community Discord server.
