Pipelines

Summary

Relationship Chart

Custom Report

This pipeline retrieves the actual performance data of your ads and allows you to define exactly how you want to retrieve your data, according to the report, metrics and selected dimensions, which can be consulted here

As it is possible to fetch data from several accounts in the same integration (including with MCC) by default the table of this integration will contain the column __kdd_account_id that indicates which account the returned data refer to. In addition to this column, the table created will also have columns for the selected dimensions and metrics, with a structure similar to this one:

Field Type

__kdd_account_id

text

dimension_x

text

dimension_y

date

dimension_z

text

metric_a

float

metric_b

int

metric_c

float

1.Some metrics and dimensions cannot be combined, so during the process of creating the pipeline, the list of possible metrics and dimensions will constantly reload for a few seconds to reflect the metrics and dimensions that can be selected

2.All selected dimensions will be replication keys along with __kdd_account_id

3.The pipeline can be integral or incremental, depending on the selected dimensions. The dimensions that will make the pipeline incremental are: Date, Week, Month, Quarter and Year. If the pipeline is incremental, in addition to the initial savepoint, it will be necessary to provide an update window. The update window value will be subtracted from the savepoint at the time of the replication, to update past data. This value can be days or months, depending on the shortest period selected, in this order: Date=days, Week=days, Month=months, Quarter=months, Year=months

4.Integrations will include “zero impressions”

5.There may be a variation of results depending on the type of report attribution

6.In some cases, certain dimensions can filter the results. For example, using a keyword-type dimension will cause video ads not to be returned.

7.Campaigns of the type “Performance Max (Pmax)” do not have an ad group. Therefore, they may not be returned in integrations that use ad group dimensions, requiring an integration without this dimension for these campaigns to be returned
