Creative Attributes

Creative Attributes describe the [Creative](doc:creatives) object such as which [Advertiser](doc:advertisers) it belongs to, whether it is uses Flash, whether it has objectionable content, etc. These attributes are important because they are used by the ad server/bidder to better match creatives with available inventory. Like Targeting Modules, Buzz supports a flexible approach to defining Creative Attributes to be used in filtering valid creatives for a given impression. Creative Attributes are stored as JSON within the `creative_attributes` field of the Creative object. A list of valid Creative Attribute modules and keys is here: [List of Creative Attribute Modules and Keys](doc:list-of-creative-attribute-modules-and-keys).
