API Reference

Block Publishers At Account Level

Suppress specific publishers at the account level.

📘

Publisher Networks

  • Blocking of publisher networks is not supported via the API. (If do you need to block a publisher network, please reach out to your Taboola Account Manager.)
  • Attempting to submit a network id to the block-publisher endpoint results in a 400 Bad Request.

Updating

Examples

  1. Apply suppressions:
POST /backstage/api/1.0/demo-advertiser/block-publisher
{
    "sites": [
        "site_1",
        "site_2"
    ]
}
{
    "sites": [
        "site_1",
        "site_2"
    ]
}

📘

When updating a resource, you can use either PUT or POST.

📘

For a successful request, the response is the updated list of suppressed publishers.

📘

Sites

The sites field stores a collection of sites (machine-readable site names - i.e. publisher account_ids). For more information, see: List Of Publishers.

  1. Remove all suppressions:
POST /backstage/api/1.0/demo-advertiser/block-publisher
{
    "sites": []
}
{
    "sites": []
}

Patching

You can use the PATCH verb to add/remove specific publishers - without re-submitting the entire collection.

Flow

  1. Use the PATCH verb to submit an object with 2 fields to the block-publisher endpoint:
    • sites
    • patch_operation ("ADD" or "REMOVE")
  2. In the sites field, include only the sites that you want to add or remove.

Examples

  1. Fetch the list of blocked publishers:
GET /backstage/api/1.0/demo-advertiser/block-publisher
{
    "sites": [
        "site_1",
        "site_2"
    ]
}
  1. ADD sites to the list of blocked publishers
PATCH /backstage/api/1.0/demo-advertiser/block-publisher
{
   "sites": [
      "site_name3"
   ],
   "patch_operation": "ADD"
}
{
    "sites": [
        "site_name1",
        "site_name2",
        "site_name3"      
    ]
}
  1. REMOVE sites from the list of blocked publishers
PATCH /backstage/api/1.0/demo-advertiser/block-publisher
{
    "sites": [
        "site_name1"
    ],
    "patch_operation": "REMOVE"
}
{
    "sites": [
        "site_name2",
        "site_name3"      
    ]
}
