GrpSettings contains information for a line item that will have a target demographic when
serving. This information will be used to set up tracking and enable reporting on the demographic
information.

Field
minTargetAge
xsd:long
Specifies the minimum target age (in years) of the LineItem. This field is only
applicable if provider is not null.
maxTargetAge
xsd:long
Specifies the maximum target age (in years) of the LineItem. This field is only
applicable if provider is not null.
The value returned if the actual value is not exposed by the requested API version.
NIELSEN
GOOGLE
Renamed to GOOGLE beginning in V201608.
inTargetRatioEstimateMilliPercent
xsd:long
Estimate for the in-target ratio given the line item's audience targeting. This field is only
applicable if provider is Nielsen, LineItem.primaryGoal is in-target
impressions, and LineItem.CostType is in-target CPM. This field determines the
in-target ratio to use for pacing Nielsen line items before Nielsen reporting data is
available. Represented as a milli percent, so 55.7% becomes 55700.
Specifies which pacing computation to apply in pacing to impressions from connected devices.
This field is required if enableNielsenCoViewingSupport is true.
Enumerations
UNKNOWN
The value returned if the actual value is not exposed by the requested API version.
NONE
The value returned if Nielsen measurement is disabled for connected devices.
COVIEW
Indicates that Nielsen impressions on connected devices are included, and we apply coviewing in
pacing.
STRICT_COVIEW
Indicates that Nielsen impressions on connected devices are included, and we apply strict
coviewing in pacing.
