October 2026 - Release Notes

Portal: Measurement Provider Field Is Now a Text Field, with Validation in Ad Unit and Network Imports

The measurement.provider field is now a text field instead of a drop-down in these locations:

  • Inventory > Ad Units > Import Ad Units
  • Inventory > Networks > Import Networks
  • Inventory > Ad Units > Edit Ad Unit (the read-only Provider field now shows as a text field).

This change prevents entries from being auto-mapped to the wrong provider or left blank. Any unrecognized value is now flagged during import with this message:

"We couldn't find this provider. Please check the value entered or contact helpdesk@placeexchange.com. The value is formatted as firstword-secondword (e.g., data-jam), all lowercase."

For more information, see Measurement.

Portal: Reporting link and few pending help doc links now redirect to Broadsign help docs

The remaining links to the old Help Center now open Broadsign Docs. This covers the "How to use this report" links in Reporting and the Resources and News links in the Portal.

  • Before: https://help.placeexchange.com/s/
  • After: https://docs.broadsign.com/broadsign-platform/en/Documentation_Place_Exchange/

Portal: Inventory Health report now shows (No Network) instead of blank network names

In the Inventory Health report, ad units with no network now show (No Network) instead of a blank row when grouped by Network Name. The same label appears in the Explore view and in CSV/Excel exports. This makes it clear that no data is missing and that the totals add up.

Portal : Updated Network Selection Behavior in the Approve Ads Modal

Updated the Approve Ads modal to simplify the network selection process by removing the “Replace existing networks” toggle. When approving ads, any newly selected networks will automatically replace the existing network selections, maintaining the previous default behavior. This change reduces potential confusion around network selection options and ensures a consistent ad approval experience.

For more information, see Add Networks – Bulk (Ad Approval List).
