What known limitations exist?

Only one "imp" object per Bid Request.
Only in-app Bid Requests. We support only bid requests with the parameter "app", which target applications.
We are using Prebid for web traffic from "site" inventory, see [Header Bidding With Prebid.js For Mobile Web]

How does an RTB Bid Response look like?

No Bid Response

We send an HTTP status code 204 (no-content) response when the bid request is valid but BlueStack has "no bid" for it.

Bid Response

Invalid Bid Request

We respond on any bid request error with the HTTP status code 400. The HTTP status code 500 is reserved for BlueStack internal server errors. The error details are communicated on x-bluestack-message HTTP header key

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Server: nginx/1.14.2
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2020 06:48:26 GMT
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
Connection: close
