Structured Data Files let you disclose YouTube video assets as AI-generated or AI-edited. Labels will be applied to ads with such assets at serving in regions with local AI labeling regulations. As of today, those regions are the European Union (EU), India, and New York state.

Support in Structured Data Files
Starting in v10.1, columns in Structured Data Files that specify YouTube videos used in YouTube and Demand Gen ads support synthetic content attestation status, which let you specify whether the YouTube video contains content that was created or edited with AI.
Setting the synthetic content attestation status of a video to ON applies the
label in regions with local AI labeling regulations, while setting it to OFF
confirms that the content does not require a label. You can also leave the
status unset. A label won't be applied if the status is unset. However, after
the status is set for a YouTube video, it can't be unset and may only be updated
to be either ON or OFF.
Valid values of the synthetic content attestation status are shown in the following table:
| Synthetic content attestation status values in SDF | |
|---|---|
OFF |
Attested as not created or edited with AI. |
ON |
Attested as created or edited with AI. |
| Empty value | No attestation has been provided. If an attestation has already been provided for this YouTube video ID under this advertiser, then the existing attestation value will automatically be applied. |
For more information on how setting this field affects ad serving, refer to the Display & Video 360 Help Center.
