How to connect Bing Ads to Databox
To connect a Bing Ads Account in Databox, go to Data Sources > + New connection. Type Bing Ads in the search bar and click on the green Connect button.
This will open the Sign in window, which is where you will be prompted to sign in to your Microsoft account and authorize the Databox app.
How much historical data is synced when you first connect Bing Ads to Databox?
When you connect a new Bing Ads Data Source in Databox, 3 months worth of historical data is initially synced.
Certain Metrics may have more or less historical data available. For more information about the amount of historical data available for a specific Metric, please contact our Support Team at [email protected]
Pro Tip: Once your Bing Ads Data Source is connected and actively syncing data, we store the data that's collected in our own database. This allows us to accumulate more data over time as more data syncs are made so that you can report on more historical Bing Ads data in your Databox reports. Learn more here.
What time zone does Bing Ads data sync in?
Bing Ads data is synced in UTC.
Why is my Bing Ads Data Source disconnected?
The most common reason why your Bing Ads Data Source may disconnect is due to an expired token.
Bing Ads connections are established using tokens. Microsoft sets its tokens to expire after 60 days. This means that every 60 days, your Bing Ads Data Source will need to be reconnected.
In order to reconnect your Bing Ads Data Source, navigate to the Data Manager and click the Reconnect button next to your Bing Ads Data Source.
How to access pre-built Bing Ads Templates
Pro Tip: Once the Databoard is available on the Databoards page, it is completely disconnected from the public Template. Therefore, you can further customize this Databoard to meet your specific needs using the Designer.
