The new conversion pixel and expanded API enable advertisers to use data for measurement and audience targeting. Advertisers can utilize this data to test Netflix's attribution and measurement tools, and to build targeted audience segments. This data can also be used to estimate the impact of advertising on sales and other outcomes.
The conversion data can be used for various purposes, including lift tests and audience building. Advertisers can use this data to assign credit for sales or leads generated by their ads, and to estimate the additional outcomes caused by their advertising efforts. This data can also be used to create targeted audience segments for future ad campaigns.
The Trade Desk will play a key role in Netflix's expanded audience targeting capabilities, with audience targeting set to begin in November.
