Common errors with media.net lines
-
Seller ID not found
121,202 lines
Ask Media.net for the account ID it lists for you in its sellers.json, correct the line, or remove it if you no longer work with them. Buyers that check sellers.json drop these paths.
-
Seller type BOTH
30,269 lines
The account is listed as BOTH, so sellers.json alone cannot tell a buyer which relationship applies. Nothing to fix on your side; buyers usually look at the seller's domain.
-
DIRECT but intermediary
12,294 lines
If a partner holds this account and resells your inventory, the line should say RESELLER. If the account is yours, ask Media.net to list it as PUBLISHER.
-
RESELLER but publisher
2,326 lines
If the account is yours, declare it DIRECT. If a partner holds it, ask Media.net why the account is listed as PUBLISHER.
