Intro

Google Ads Multi Accounts, formerly known as Google Adwords, is an online advertising platform developed by Google, where advertisers bid to display brief advertisements, service offerings, product listings, or videos to web users. It can place ads both in the results of search engines like Google Search and on non-search websites, mobile apps, and videos. The Domo Google Ads Multi Accounts connector provides the statistics about your campaigns, budgets, accounts, ads, etc. that helps you to upgrade your business performance. For more information about the Ads API, see https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/start. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Google Ads Multi Accounts OAuth connector user interface. General information for adding DataSets, setting update schedules, and editing DataSet information is discussed in Adding a DataSet Using a Connector.

​
Multi-Account Connector Vs Single Account Connector

Every Multi-Account connector has a corresponding single-account connector. For example, the Google Ads Multi Accounts connector has a corresponding Google Ads single Account connector. You might prefer to use the Google Ads Multi Accounts if the following are true:
  1. You have multiple Google Ads Accounts in Domo, OR you have a single Google Account in Domo and plan to add more Accounts later, AND
  2. You would like to import the data from one or more of these Accounts into a single dataset.
You might prefer to use the single Account version of this connector if you have one or more Accounts in Domo, and you would like to keep the data from each Account in a separate DataSet.

​
Credentials Pane

To connect to your Google Ads Multi Accounts connector and create a DataSet, you need to select at least one Google Ads Account in Domo from the drop-down list. To add a new Account in Domo, you need the credentials associated with your Google account. For more information on selecting and powering the accounts, see Powering Up A Multi-Account Connector (this article explains the process of powering up multiple Connector Accounts and successfully creating a dataset). If a Google Account in Domo does not exist yet, you can add the Account by clicking Add Account to open the Google OAuth screen, where you can enter your Google credentials. Once you have entered valid Google credentials and have successfully authenticated, you can use the new Account any time you go to create a new Google Ads Multi Accounts DataSet or in the DataSet you are currently powering up. You can manage Connector Accounts in the Accounts tab in the Data Center. For more information about this tab, see Managing Connectors Accounts. This pane contains fields for entering credentials to connect to your Google Ads Multi Accounts account. The following table describes what is needed for each field:

Field

Description

Manager Account Customer ID The id of the manager account for which you want to retrieve the data.

Once you have entered a valid Manager Account Customer ID, click Connect (or select Add Account if you have existing Google Ads Multi Accounts in Domo) to open the Google OAuth screen, where you can select the account you want to connect to. After selecting an account, specify the password for that account. After you have entered a valid password, you can use the same account in Domo any time you create a Google Ads Multi Accounts DataSet. For more information about this tab, see Manage Connector/Adapter Accounts.
