Clients, such as agencies and advertisers can be associated with your Authorized Buyers account. They are assigned permissions that control their appearance to publishers in the marketplace. Based on these permissions, client users can be granted restricted access to your account. Adding clients and client users is limited to account users with the "Administrator" role.
Tip: All client users can view available products and publisher profiles in the marketplace and have limited access to debugging and reporting tools.
