Why we care. This update simplifies the process of reviewing resource settings in bulk, making campaign management more efficient for advertisers using Display & Video 360.

- Applies to Line Item and YouTube Ad Group resources.
How it works:
- Uses human-readable values instead of numeric IDs.
- Available for SDF v6 and later.
