    New age of child version#

    We deprecated the legacy version of Child Age and Gender that required sending three separate qualifications in favor of a single qualification model more consistent with industry norms.
    Legacy: 218, 220, 230
    New: 232
    Sending Requests using legacy version of Child Age and Gender (218, 220, 230) will result in the targeting being converted to 232. This will only be supported through Q2 2025, at which time Requests with legacy (218, 220, 230) will no longer be supported.
