sellers.json
An IAB Tech Lab standard requiring SSPs and exchanges to publish a file identifying every seller they represent, so buyers can trace the path from a bid request back to the publisher and see whether each intermediary is a publisher, an intermediary, or both. Combined with ads.txt and the SupplyChain object in OpenRTB, it gives buyers the data for Supply Path Optimization.
