DAAST-1.0-pricing-model-value
DAAST `<Pricing>` model must be one of `cpm`, `cpc`, `cpe`, `cpv`, `cpo`
WarningDAASTIAB DAAST 1.0 XSDDAAST 1.0 and 1.1 (all DAAST documents)
Short answer
The DAAST XSD restricts the model attribute on <Pricing> to the values cpm, cpc, cpe, cpv, and cpo. Any other value is not defined by the spec.
Why this matters in production
This rule is a strong risk signal. Tags with this issue often still parse, but they become brittle across SDKs, SSAI resolvers, and CTV environments. DAAST rules validate the structural and semantic requirements specific to digital audio ad serving. Audio-specific fields like Category, AdInteractions, and audio MediaFile attributes are required by the spec and are absent from standard VAST validation. Affected scope: DAAST 1.0 and 1.1 (all DAAST documents).
