# Setting up Prebid Video

Configure Prebid Video placement types in HB Manager.

Prebid Video supports **outstream** and **instream** inventory. The outstream format uses the built-in renderer.

For player-side instream setup, see [Instream video with HBM and GAM](/technical/integration/formats-and-channels/instream-video-with-hbm-and-gam.md).

### Configure outstream video

Use outstream placement types for video-only inventory or combined display and video inventory.

1. Go to **HB Management → Global HB Management → Placement types**.
2. Create a placement type.
3. Configure it globally, or override it at publisher or website level.

## 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://docs.relevant-digital.com/technical/integration/formats-and-channels/setting-up-prebid-video.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.
