Advertise X Bid Adapter Documentation

The task is to develop a basic Prebid adapter for a fictional ad network called "AdvertiseX." AdvertiseX provides a RESTfuI API for fetching ad bids. Your adapter should integrate this API into the Prebid framework to enable bidding from AdvertiseX's ad inventory.

Overview:

This document outlines the steps to integrate the Advertise X Bid Adapter into the Prebid.js framework. By following these instructions, you will be able to seamlessly incorporate Advertise X's ad inventory into your Prebid.js setup.
