Explainer Chrome: https://github.com/WICG/turtledove/blob/main/FLEDGE_browser_bidding_and_auction_API.md Services: https://github.com/privacysandbox/fledge-docs/blob/main/bidding_auction_services_api.md Note that this explainer has a helpful onboarding section <https://github.com/privacysandbox/fledge-docs/blob/main/bidding_auction_services_api.md#onboarding-and-alpha-testing-guide> for setting up the services. Specification May be influenced by Origin Trial feedback, so not yet started. Protected Audience auctions running on Bidding & Auction Services provide functionality very similar to existing on-device auctions so much of the existing spec <https://wicg.github.io/turtledove/> applies. Summary The Protected Audience API (formerly known as FLEDGE) is a Privacy Sandbox proposal to serve remarketing and custom audience use cases, designed so third parties cannot track user browsing behavior across sites. This proposal, the Protected Audience Bidding & Auction Services proposal, outlines a way to allow Protected Audience computation to take place on cloud servers in a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), rather than running locally on a user's device. Moving computation to cloud servers can help optimize the Protected Audience auction, and free up computational cycles and network bandwidth for a device. Blink component Blink>InterestGroups <https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/list?q=component:Blink%3EInterestGroups> TAG review The parent proposal, Protected Audience, is still pending: https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/723 TAG review status Pending RisksInteroperability and Compatibility None. This is an optional new feature of the Protected Audience API. Ad techs can use this new feature by calling navigator.getInterestGroupAdAuctionData() and specifying values for new fields in the auction config. Without invoking the new function or explicit values for those new fields, there's no functional behavioral change as a result of this feature. Gecko & WebKit: No signal on parent proposal, Protected Audience. Asked in the Mozilla forum here <https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/770>, and in the Webkit forum here <https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/158> . Web developers: Extensive interest in this feature from adtechs, evidenced by the myriad of discussions on Protected Audience’s issue tracker <https://github.com/WICG/turtledove/issues> and weekly WICG calls <https://github.com/WICG/turtledove/issues/88>. Goals for experimentation Operating Bidding and Auction services in TEEs represents a major shift from running Protected Audience auctions inside the browser. During this Origin Trial we’d like to gain confidence that this is possible to do at scale and in a performant manner. We want feedback on new API surfaces and how these servers are operated. Debuggability On-device API surfaces should be debuggable in Chrome DevTools, and we’ve added extensive mechanisms for debugging Bidding and Auction services <https://github.com/privacysandbox/fledge-docs/blob/main/debugging_protected_audience_api_services.md> . Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome OS, Android, and Android WebView)? It will be supported on all platforms that support Protected Audience, so all but WebView. Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests <https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md> ? No. More web-platform-test <https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md> coverage is expected when the specification is closer to completion. Flag name on chrome://flags Overall control is not possible via chrome://flags, though the consented debugging support <https://github.com/privacysandbox/fledge-docs/blob/main/debugging_protected_audience_api_services.md#adtech-consented-debugging> is controlled via chrome://flags/#protected-audience-debug-token Finch feature name FledgeBiddingAndAuctionServerAPI Requires code in //chrome? Only for UI for the consented debugging support <https://github.com/privacysandbox/fledge-docs/blob/main/debugging_protected_audience_api_services.md#adtech-consented-debugging> . Estimated milestones We hope to start the Origin Trial sometime during M119 beta. We plan to continue the Origin Trial for at least three milestones to give developers time to test the API and provide feedback. Once we are confident that the APIs are working properly, we will transition the OT from beta to stable channel.
