# Manage Supply Chain Related Files

Ensure that your inventory is compliant to be monetised with Adagio and all of its demand partners. These files are essential to unlock the full monetisation potential of your apps and websites.

{% hint style="info" %}
Adagio follows the **IAB standards** when it comes to Supply Chain Validation. Please refer to their knowledge hub to explore their specification: 

* [(app-)ads.txt](https://iabtechlab.com/ads.txt/)
* [sellers.json](https://iabtechlab.com/sellers-json/)
  {% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Many parameters can affect the requirements for said files, which is why we have built tools to constantly give you an overview for each of your websites/apps of the Supply Chain validation status. 

Here are some of the actions that may affect the requirements: 

* Modification of your `sellers.json` domain 
* Modification of your Seller Type (`BOTH`, `PUBLISHER`, `INTERMEDIARY`) 
* Update of the Demand Partners you've selected in our Demand Library
* Update of your inventory's whitelisting status by one of our Demand Partners 
  {% endhint %}

{% step %}

### Initial Setup

Once your account has been created or whenever you add new inventory to the portfolio that Adagio monetises, you should update all (app-)ads.txt files that are related to your inventory. 

{% content-ref url="/pages/d7tSq9uJ5fGPnJgnbbmN" %}
[Update Your (app-)ads.txt File](/adagio-documentation/account-configuration/manage-supply-chain-related-files/update-your-app-ads.txt-file.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Regular Monitoring

As your monetisation stack evolves, you can monitor the supply chain validation of your: 

* `(app-)ads.txt`
* `sellers.json`
* related `sellerID`s (when you manage the inventory's monetisation for another publisher)
* appstore listing (for inApp inventory)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://adagio-io.gitbook.io/adagio-documentation/account-configuration/manage-supply-chain-related-files.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
