Accounting Policies [Abstract]
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:	BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by LiveRamp Holdings, Inc. ("Registrant", "LiveRamp", "we", "us" or the "Company"), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of the Registrant’s management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods included have been made, and the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain note information has been omitted because it has not changed significantly from that reflected in Notes 1 through 18 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements filed as part of Item 8 of the Registrant’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 (“2020 Annual Report”), as filed with the SEC on May 26, 2020. This quarterly report and the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in connection with the 2020 Annual Report. The financial information contained in this quarterly report is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other period or for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2021. Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain of the accounting policies used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are complex and require management to make judgments and/or significant estimates regarding amounts reported or disclosed in these financial statements. Additionally, the application of certain of these accounting policies is governed by complex accounting principles and their interpretation. A discussion of the Company’s significant accounting principles and their application is included in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the Company’s 2020 Annual Report. Accounting pronouncements adopted during the current year Standard Description Date of Adoption Effect on Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") ASU 2018-15 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract ("ASU 2018-15") ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software) and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license). Previously, all implementation costs for a hosting arrangement that was a service contract were expensed when incurred. April 1, 2020 The effect of prospectively adopting ASU 2018-15 on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures was not material. ASU 2018-13 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework ("ASU 2018-13") ASU 2018-13 eliminates, modifies and adds disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. April 1, 2020 The effect of adopting ASU 2018-15 on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures was not material. ASU 2016-13 , Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) ("ASU 2016-13") ASU 2016-13 introduces new methodology for accounting for credit losses on financial instruments. The guidance establishes a new forward looking "expected loss model" that requires entities to estimate expected credit losses on accounts receivable and other financial instruments by using all practical and relevant information. April 1, 2020 The effect of adopting ASU 2016-13 on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures was not material. Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted Standard Description Date of Adoption Effect on Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters ASU 2019-12 I ncome Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12") ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes, eliminates certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 (fiscal 2022 for the Company), including interim periods within those fiscal years. April 1, 2021 The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Under the second performance plan, units covering 172,574 shares of common stock were granted having a fair value at the date of grant of $6.5 million equal to the quoted market price for the shares on the date of grant. The units vest subject to attainment of performance criteria established by the compensation committee and continuous employment through the vesting date. The units may vest in a number of shares from 0% to 200% of the award, based on the attainment of trailing twelve-month revenue growth and EBITDA margin targets for the period from April 1, 2020 to March 31, 2023. Performance will be measured and vesting evaluated on a quarterly basis beginning with the period ending June 30, 2021 and continuing through the end of the performance period. To the extent that shares are earned in a given quarter, 50% vest immediately and 50% vest on the one-year anniversary of attainment, except that all earned but unvested shares will vest fully at the end of the measurement period. Fiscal 2020 plans : During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the compensation committee approved the final performance attainment on a fiscal 2020 performance plan covering 59,480 PSUs. The awards reached maturity of the relevant performance period at March 31, 2020, and final attainment of these awards was determined by the compensation committee during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 to be 164% resulting in an additional award of 38,063 units (for a total earned amount of 97,543 units). Of the earned amount, one-third vested immediately, while the remaining two-thirds will vest in equal increments in first quarters of fiscal years 2021 and 2022. Fiscal 2019 plans : Subsequent to June 30, 2020, the fiscal 2019 performance plan covering 313,771 units reached its initial quarterly measurement date. Subject to compensation committee approval of attainment, 178,159 units (based on 57% attainment) are expected to be released; half in the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2020, and half one year later. PSU activity for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was: Weighted-average fair value per Weighted-average Number share at grant remaining contractual of shares date term (in years) Outstanding at March 31, 2020 545,446 $ 51.01 2.24 Granted 246,524 $ 43.40 Additional earned performance shares 38,063 $ 55.48 Vested (32,514) $ 55.48 Forfeited or canceled (28,857) $ 32.62 Outstanding at June 30, 2020 768,662 $ 49.29 2.28 The total fair value of PSUs vested in the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $1.2 million and is measured as the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock on the vesting date for the number of shares vested. Consideration Holdback As part of the Company's fiscal 2020 acquisition of Data Plus Math ("DPM"), $24.4 million of the acquisition consideration otherwise payable with respect to shares of DPM common stock held by certain key employees was subject to holdback by the Company pursuant to agreements with those employees (each, a "Holdback Agreement"). Each Holdback Agreement specifies that the consideration holdback will vest in three equal annual increments on the anniversary of the closing date (which date may be changed by the board of directors to an earlier date). Vesting is subject to the DPM key employees' continued employment through each annual vesting date and will be settled in shares of Company common stock. Through June 30, 2020, the Company had recognized a total of $8.1 million related to the DPM consideration holdback. At June 30, 2020, the recognized, but unpaid, balance related to the DPM consideration holdback in other accrued expenses in the condensed consolidated balance sheet was zero, as the first annual settlement occurred at the end of the current fiscal quarter. Pacific Data Partners ("PDP") Assumed Performance Plan In connection with the fiscal 2018 acquisition of PDP, the Company assumed the outstanding performance compensation plan under the PDP 2018 Equity Compensation Plan ("PDP PSU plan"). During fiscal 2020, the Company converted the outstanding PDP PSU plan to a time-vesting restricted stock plan ("PDP RSU plan"). Through June 30, 2020, the Company has recognized a total of $42.3 million related to the PDP non-cash stock-based compensation plan. At June 30, 2020, the recognized, but unpaid, balance related to the PDP non-cash stock-based compensation plan in other accrued expenses in the condensed consolidated balance sheet was $4.1 million.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: Legal Matters The Company is involved in various claims and legal proceedings. Management routinely assesses the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes to these matters, as well as ranges of probable losses, to the extent losses are reasonably estimable. The Company records accruals for these matters to the extent that management concludes a loss is probable and the financial impact, should an adverse outcome occur, is reasonably estimable. These accruals are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In management’s opinion, the Company has made appropriate and adequate accruals for these matters, and management believes the probability of a material loss beyond the amounts accrued to be remote. However, the ultimate liability for these matters is uncertain, and if accruals are not adequate, an adverse outcome could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations. The Company maintains insurance coverage above certain limits. There are currently no matters pending against the Company or its subsidiaries for which the potential exposure is considered material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Commitments As of June 30, 2020, the Company has various non-cancellable operating lease commitments for office space that, as a result of the adoption of ASC 842, have been recorded as lease liabilities. Refer to Note 4 - Leases for additional information regarding lease commitments. The following table presents the Company’s purchase commitments at June 30, 2020.

The estimated annual effective income tax rate for the current fiscal year is primarily driven by stock-based compensation and the valuation allowance. Realization of the Company's net deferred tax assets is dependent upon its generation of sufficient taxable income of the proper character in future years in appropriate tax jurisdictions to obtain benefit from the reversal of temporary differences as well as net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. As of June 30, 2020, the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets except in certain foreign jurisdictions.
