Releasesby GlyphUpdated image field for ChatGPT output
Following a layout change in ChatGPT source, the ads.advertiser_info object no longer returns image_url. The field has been replaced by image_data, which contains the advertiser image as base64-encoded bytes. If your parser reads ads.advertiser_info.image_url, update it to use ads.advertiser_info.image_data. No changes to request parameters are needed.
