Google Ads

Google is going to turn off the google AdWords API on the 27th of April 2022. SageData has created the new “Google Ads v3” connector that uses the new API. It’s not just a new version of the old API but a completely different API experience. We are also providing a link to the reports and field mappings between the old and new APIs: https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/migration/mapping

Advanced Options

Finally, there is also an Advanced menu for you to set some additional conditions for the exported data. For example, in the Sync Historical Data, you can set start and end days for your integration. The default option would be the last 5 days.

For the lookback window, we recommend to use 14 days, instead of the SageData default of 5 days because Google often updates the data as far back as weeks.

Congratulations! Google Ads Integration is now all set and available in your SageData account!
