Interface GetCreativeDeliveryResponse

Session/conversation identifier for tracking related operations across multiple task invocations. Managed by the protocol layer to maintain conversational context. Distinct from context (per-request opaque echo, see below).

Unique identifier for tracking asynchronous operations. Present when a task requires extended processing time. Used to query task status and retrieve results when complete.

Human-readable summary of the task result. Provides natural language explanation of what happened, suitable for display to end users or for AI agent comprehension. Generated by the protocol layer based on the task response.

ISO 8601 timestamp when the response was generated. Useful for debugging, logging, cache validation, and tracking async operation progress.

Set to true when this response was returned from the idempotency cache rather than from a fresh execution. Set to false (or omitted) when the request was executed fresh. Buyers use this to distinguish cached replays from new executions — matters for billing reconciliation, audit logs, state-machine routing (cached state-tracking fields are historical snapshots, not current state — re-read via the resource's read endpoint), and any downstream system that assumes exactly-once event semantics. From 3.1 onward, replayed MAY appear on responses to any request that resolved via the idempotency cache, including read tools — universal idempotency_key (see security.mdx §Idempotency) means the cache holds read responses too.

Governance context token issued by the account's governance agent during check_governance. Buyers attach it to governed purchase requests (media buys, rights acquisitions, signal activations, creative services); sellers persist it and include it on all subsequent governance calls for that action's lifecycle. An account binds to one governance agent (see sync_governance); governance is phased across purchase / modification / delivery, not partitioned across specialist agents, so the envelope carries a single token for the full lifecycle.

Value format: governance agents MUST emit a compact JWS per the AdCP JWS profile (see Security — Signed Governance Context). Sellers MAY verify; sellers that do not verify MUST persist and forward the token unchanged. In 3.1 all sellers MUST verify. Non-JWS values from pre-3.0 governance agents are deprecated.

This is the primary correlation key for audit and reporting across the governance lifecycle.

Conceptual grouping for the task-specific response data defined by individual task response schemas (e.g., get-products-response.json, create-media-buy-response.json). payload is a documentary construct — it is NOT a required wire field, and its on-the-wire shape depends on transport (see Transport serialization below). Task response schemas declare body fields without wrapping them in a payload object; the wire representation places those body fields per transport convention. On MCP the body fields appear as siblings of envelope fields at the root of the tool response; on A2A they appear inside task.artifacts[0].parts[].DataPart; on REST they appear at the root of the JSON body.

Release-precision AdCP version (VERSION.RELEASE, e.g. "3.0", "3.1", "3.1-beta"). On a request: the buyer's release pin — the seller validates against its supported_versions and returns VERSION_UNSUPPORTED on cross-major mismatch, or downshifts to the highest supported release within the same major. On a response: the release the seller actually served — clients SHOULD validate the response against that release's schema, not against their pin. Patches are not negotiated; surface them as build_version on capabilities for operational visibility. When omitted, falls back to adcp_major_version (deprecated) or server default. Buyers SHOULD emit both adcp_version and adcp_major_version through 3.x to remain compatible with sellers that only read the legacy field. NORMALIZATION: SDKs that read full-semver values from bundle metadata (e.g. ComplianceIndex.published_version = "3.1.0-beta.1") MUST normalize to release-precision ("3.1-beta.1") before emitting on the wire — meta-field values are NOT valid wire values.

DEPRECATED in favor of adcp_version (release-precision string). Servers MUST continue to honor this field through 3.x. Removed in 4.0. Original semantics: the AdCP major version the buyer's payloads conform to. Sellers validate against their supported major_versions and return VERSION_UNSUPPORTED if unsupported. When omitted, the seller assumes its highest supported version.

Account identifier. Present when the response spans or is scoped to a specific account.

Publisher's media buy identifier. Present when the request was scoped to a single media buy.

ISO 4217 currency code for monetary values in this response (e.g., 'USD', 'EUR')

Date range for the report.

Creative delivery data with variant breakdowns

Pagination information. Present when the request included pagination parameters. Note: get_creative_delivery uses page-based pagination (limit/offset) for historical reasons, distinct from the cursor-based PaginationResponse used by list_* tools. Field naming aligned with PaginationResponse.total_count in 3.1; the legacy total field is retained as a deprecated alias until 4.0. Sellers MUST populate both fields identically; buyers SHOULD prefer total_count (the canonical name) and ignore total if both are present.
