Track purchases, signups and conversions from Google Ads and create Customer Match lists for targeting.
This integration utilizes Google’s Remarketing and Audience Targeting API.
To set up the Google Ads Audience integration, you will need to have a working Ads account and know your Client Customer ID, which you can obtain from your Google Account Manager. Before you create the connection, you must make a request to your Google Account Manager to have your Client Customer ID whitelisted for the “Mobile Device IDs for Customer Match Beta”.
When you add the integration from the Directory, sign into your Google Ads account, using your username and password, to give mParticle permission to upload user lists.
To send Device ID audiences you will need to provide a unique App ID of the apps for which you collected the ID data:
See Google’s Adwords appId reference for more on the App ID requirement.
Note that Google Ads can only make use of email addresses that are associated with a Google account, and only addresses ending in @gmail.com
can be used for Gmail targeting lists. mParticle sends addresses to Google Ads as SHA-256 hashed values.
For a Phone Number audience, mParticle forwards all 3 phone number identities as well as the $Mobile
user attribute. mParticle sends phone numbers to Google Ads as SHA-256 hashed values.
For a Device ID audience, mParticle forwards the Apple Advertising Identifier (IDFA) or the Android Advertising ID (AAID). No other fields are included with Device ID audiences. If you choose to send either or both Device IDs you MUST provide the correct App ID for each type. See Prerequisites.
mParticle will send Address Info to Google Ads for advanced matching. This data will only be sent if ALL of the following fields are present:
Google Field | mParticle Field | Description |
---|---|---|
hashedFirstName | $FirstName | First name of the member, which is normalized and SHA-256 hashed by mParticle. |
hashedLastName | $LastName | Last name of the member, which is normalized and SHA-256 hashed by mParticle. |
countryCode | $Country | 2-letter country code. |
zipCode | $Zip | Zip code. |
Google Ads has several notions of user-provided consent. Two of these apply to the S2S Google Ads events: ad_user_data
and ad_personalization
. These represent consent for ad user data and ad personalization.
To configure user consent forwarding under this value, a mapping should be set-up leveraging mParticle’s notion of Consent Purposes. To learn more about handling user consent within mParticle’s platform, see the following docs: Data Privacy Controls.
Once a Consent Purpose is set up, user consent information can be associated with it in subsequent Event Batches. The Consent Purpose data mapping can then be configured for downstream forwarding via the User Consent Data Mapping connection setting.
The consent value is set in its initial status during the membership processing, and subsequent modifications to the consent status do not impact the already synchronized downstream data.
In the absence of a user-defined consent value for the ad_user_data
and ad_personalization
fields via the Consent Purpose mapping, a default value can be optionally configured via a separate drop-down setting for each consent type. When no user consent is provided, the default status is used, if specified. If omitted, the Unspecified
status will be sent.
Caution: It is recommended that in the long term, you set up user-specified consent through the Consent Purpose mapping, such that the user consent is correctly forwarded to Google. It is your responsibility as a Data Controller to stay compliant under the GDPR, and set up user consent collection for downstream forwarding. The consent default setting can be deprecated in the future.
mParticle deletes the downstream audience when you delete an audience from mParticle.
Remarketing
to Ads and check all three identity types, mParticle will create four audiences called Remarketing (Email)
, Remarketing (Phone)
, Remarketing (IDFA)
, and Remarketing (AAID)
.0
if it is below 1000 and also rounds the size to two significant digits - i.e. 13540
becomes 13000
, so the numbers in your mParticle audience will not match your list size in Google Ads.Setting Name | Data Type | Default Value | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Client Customer ID | string |
Your Google Ads Client Customer ID. Please contact your Google TAM or AM to obtain this value. | |
Manager Customer ID | string |
The Customer ID of the Google Ads Manager account that manages the Ads account where Audience data will be sent. If you do not use a manager account, this can be left blank. |
Setting Name | Data Type | Default Value | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Membership Lifespan | int |
30 | The number of days that users remain as part of an audience list after they’re added, if they take no further action that renews their membership. A minimum of 0 and a maximum of 540 days are accepted, or enter 10000 to indicate no expiration. |
Forward Emails | bool |
true |
If enabled, and the user’s e-mail address is available, the SHA-256 hash of that e-mail address will be added to the audience ”<Audience Name> (Email)” |
Forward Phone Numbers | bool |
true |
If enabled, and any of the user’s phone numbers are available, the SHA-256 hash of those phone numbers will be added to the audience ”<Audience Name> (Phone)” |
Forward IDFAs | bool |
true |
If enabled, and the user’s IDFA is available, it will be added to the audience ”<Audience Name> (IDFA)” |
Forward AAIDs | bool |
true |
If enabled, and the user’s AAID is available, it will be added to the audience ”<Audience Name> (AAID)” |
iOS AppID | string |
