Connecting Bing Ads

Bing Ads setup requirements

To set up Bing Ads in Stitch, you need:

  • To pause all ad-blocking software currently in use. Because Bing Ads authentication uses pop ups, you may encounter issues if ad blockers aren’t disabled during the setup.

  • To have Viewer permissions to the profiles you want to connect. These read-only permissions will ensure Stitch can read data from the profiles you select for replication. Read more about Bing Ads user permissions here.

Step 1: Add Bing Ads as a Stitch data source

  1. Sign into your Stitch account.

  2. On the Stitch Dashboard page, click the Add Integration button.

  3. Click the Bing Ads icon.

  4. Enter a name for the integration. This is the name that will display on the Stitch Dashboard for the integration; it’ll also be used to create the schema in your destination.

    For example, the name “Stitch Bing Ads” would create a schema called stitch_bing_ads in the destination. Note: Schema names cannot be changed after you save the integration.

Step 2: Define the historical sync

The Sync Historical Data setting will define the starting date for your Bing Ads integration. This means that:

  • For tables using Incremental Replication, data equal to or newer than this date will be replicated to your data warehouse.
  • For tables using Full Table Replication, all data - including records that are older, equal to, or newer than this date - will be replicated to your data warehouse.

Change this setting if you want to replicate data beyond Bing Ads’s default setting of 1 year. For a detailed look at historical replication jobs, check out the Syncing Historical SaaS Data guide.

Step 3: Create a replication schedule

In the Replication Frequency section, you’ll create the integration’s replication schedule. An integration’s replication schedule determines how often Stitch runs a replication job, and the time that job begins.

Bing Ads integrations support the following replication scheduling methods:

To keep your row usage low, consider setting the integration to replicate less frequently. See the Understanding and Reducing Your Row Usage guide for tips on reducing your usage.

Step 4: Authorize Stitch and select Bing Ads accounts

Selecting Bing Ads accounts.

  1. Next, you’ll be prompted to log into your Bing account and to approve Stitch’s access to your Bing Ads data.
  2. Click Authorize to continue.

  3. After your credentials are validated, you’ll be prompted to select the Bing Ads account(s) you want to connect to Stitch.

    If you don’t see the account(s) you want to connect, verify that you have completed the setup requirements.

  4. When selecting accounts, keep the following in mind:

    • Only one top-level manager account can be selected. If you need to connect multiple top-level accounts, we recommend creating additional Bing Ads integrations.
    • Selecting a subaccount will also select the parent, or top-level account. If you de-select the parent account, you will be unable to select any subaccounts.
    • If multiple subaccounts are selected, data for all the selected subaccounts will map to the same table in your destination. For example: If two subaccounts are selected and the accounts table is tracked, account data for both accounts will be replicated into the accounts table. This is applicable to every table selected in the next step.
  5. When finished selecting accounts, click Check and Save.

Step 5: Set tables and columns to replicate

To complete the setup, you’ll need to select the tables and columns you want to replicate to your data warehouse.

Check out the Schema section to learn more about the available tables in Bing Ads and how they replicate.

  1. In the list of tables that displays - or in the Tables to Replicate tab, if you skipped this step during setup - locate a table you want to replicate.

  2. To track a table, click the checkbox next to the table’s name. A green checkmark means the table is set to replicate.

  3. To track a column, click the checkbox next to the column’s name. A green checkmark means the column is set to replicate.

  4. Repeat this process for all the tables and columns you want to replicate.
  5. When finished, click the Finalize Your Selections button at the bottom of the screen to save your selections.

Note: If you change these settings while a replication job is still in progress, they will not be used until the next job starts.

Initial and historical replication jobs

After you finish setting up Bing Ads, its Sync Status may show as Pending on either the Stitch Dashboard or in the Integration Details page.

For a new integration, a Pending status indicates that Stitch is in the process of scheduling the initial replication job for the integration. This may take some time to complete.

Free historical data loads

The first seven days of replication, beginning when data is first replicated, are free. Rows replicated from the new integration during this time won’t count towards your quota. Stitch offers this as a way of testing new integrations, measuring usage, and ensuring historical data volumes don’t quickly consume your quota.

Bing Ads Replication

Report retention periods and historical data

Bing Ads retains reporting data for specified periods of time. Depending on the type of report, the retention period can vary. For the majority of reports, however, Bing Ads will retain data for 36 months from the current date.

This retention period can impact the historical data Stitch can replicate from Bing Ads. If you select a Start Date further in the past than the retention period allows, a message similar to the following will surface in the integration’s Extraction Logs during the extraction phase:

tap - Message = "Bing reported that the requested report date range ended outside of their data retention period. Skipping to next range..."

When this occurs, Stitch will move the Start Date up a month until extraction succeeds. For example: If 01/09/2015 is found to be outside of the retention period, Stitch will move the date range up to 01/10/2015, then 01/11/2015, and so on until extraction is successful. This will all occur in the same extraction job.

For more info on Bing Ads retention periods, refer to Microsoft’s documentation.

Table types and replication

There are two types of tables in Stitch’s Bing Ads integration: Core Object and Report.

  • Core Object tables contain foundational data that’s useful for analysis. These are the accounts, ad_groups, ads, and campaigns tables. With the exception of the accounts table, these tables are replicated using Full Table Replication.

  • Report tables are the various Bing Ads reports. The replication process for these tables is a bit unlike that of other tables:

    • Extraction: Data is extracted using a Conversion Window. A Conversion Window is a period of time after a customer clicks an ad that a conversion (ex: a purchase) is recorded in Bing Ads. Stitch currently uses a Conversion Window of 30 days.

      This means that data from the past 30 days will be replicated during every replication job.

    • Loading: Data is loaded into your data warehouse using Append-Only Replication.

For Report tables, this means that:

  1. Due to the Conversion Window, a high Replication Frequency may not be necessary. Because Stitch will replicate data from the past 30 days during every replication job, recent data will be re-replicated and count towards your row quota.

    To reduce your row usage and replicating redundant data, consider setting the integration to replicate less frequently. For example: every 12 or 24 hours.

  2. Querying for the latest data in Report tables will require a different strategy than you might usually use. Stitch will add a column named _sdc_report_datetime to Report tables to help you identify the most recent records in a table. See the Query for the Latest Data section for more info and a sample query.

Each part of the replication process for Report tables is explained below.

Report Tables: Data extraction and Conversion Windows

Every time Stitch runs a replication job for Bing Ads, the last 30 days’ worth of data will be replicated for any Report tables currently being tracked.

Stitch replicates data in this way to account for updates made during the Conversion Window.

For historical and full re-replications of Bing Ads data, Stitch will query for and extract data newer than or equal to the date defined in the Start Date field in the Integration Settings page.

The Start Date, in conjunction with the Conversion Window, will define the minimum date Stitch should query for when extracting historical data. This is calculated as:

Start Date - Conversion Window = Minimum Extraction Date

Example

During the initial set up, the Start Date field is set to July 3, 2017, or 2017-07-03 00:00:00.

To account for the Conversion Window, Stitch would calculate the Minimum Extraction Date value as: 2017-07-03 00:00:00 - 30 days = 2017-06-03 00:00:00

If you were to write a SQL query using this date for the ad_performance_report table, it might look like this:

  SELECT *
    FROM bing_ads.ad_performance_report
   WHERE TimePeriod >= '2017-06-03 00:00:00'   /* Min. Extraction Date */
ORDER BY TimePeriod

For ongoing replication jobs, Stitch will query for and extract data using the last saved maximum value in the table’s Replication Key column and the Conversion Window setting.

Note: This applies to every replication job that takes place after the historical replication job.

Example

The last maximum saved Replication Key value for the ad_performance_report table is 2017-10-01 00:00:00.

To account for the Conversion Window of 30 days, we’d subtract this from the last maximum saved Replication Key value:

2017-10-01 00:00:00 - 30 days = 2017-09-01 00:00:00

In this case, Stitch would query for and extract data that is newer than or equal to 2017-09-01 00:00:00 and older than or equal to 2017-10-01 00:00:00.

If this were a SQL query, it might look like this:

  SELECT *
    FROM ad_performance_report
   WHERE TimePeriod >= '2017-09-01 00:00:00'
                              /* max Replication Key value - Conversion Window */
     AND TimePeriod <= '2017-10-01 00:00:00'
                              /* max Replication Key value from previous job */
ORDER BY TimePeriod

Report Tables: Data loading and Append-Only Replication

When Stitch loads the extracted data for Report tables into your destination, it will do so using Append-Only Replication. This is a type of Incremental Replication where existing rows aren’t updated, but appended to the end of the table.

Additionally, the number of rows loaded into the table during each replication job is dependent on the combination of unique values in the dimension columns you track. See the Column Selection and Statistic Aggregation section for more info and examples.

Example

Let’s say these columns are tracking in the ad_performance_report table:

  • campaignId (dimension) - This is the ID associated with a campaign. In this example, there are two campaigns: 929007494 and 929599581
  • deviceType (dimension) - The device type. There are two values for this example: Computer and Tablet
  • impressions (metric) - The total number of impressions.

Every time Stitch replicates and loads data, a row for each unique combination of the dimension columns will be appended to the end of the table:

_sdc_report_datetime TimePeriod AccountId campaignId deviceType impressions
2017-10-01 17:48:26.791 2017-09-10 00:00:00 71086605 929007494 Computer 61
2017-10-01 17:48:26.791 2017-09-10 00:00:00 71086605 929007494 Tablet 15
2017-10-01 17:48:26.791 2017-09-10 00:00:00 71086605 929599581 Computer 37
2017-10-01 17:48:26.791 2017-09-10 00:00:00 71086605 929599581 Tablet 9

Report Tables: Query for the latest data

If you want only the most recently replicated data for any Bing Ads Report table, you can use the sample query below to account for the Append-Only Replication Stitch uses.

This query uses two columns - which are automatically included for every Report table - to return the latest data:

  • TimePeriod - The day that the record pertains to.
  • _sdc_report_datetime - The starting time of the Stitch job that extracted the record.
SELECT *
  FROM (
        SELECT *,
        RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY TimePeriod, 
                     ORDER BY _sdc_report_datetime DESC)
        FROM ad_performance_report
        ORDER BY TimePeriod ASC
       ) AS latest
 WHERE latest.rank = 1

In this query:

  1. A subquery first uses a window function to create a ‘window’ of data for each TimePeriod,
  2. The values of the _sdc_report_datetime column are ranked within each window partition, and
  3. Then, in the outer query, only the rows with _sdc_report_datetime values ranked as 1 - which is equal to the maximum timestamp - are returned.

Report Tables: Column selection and statistic aggregation

The dimension columns selected for replication in Report tables can impact how performance statistics are aggregated. Additionally, this can also affect the number of rows replicated and loaded into your destination.

For example: if gregorianDate, accountId, campaignId, deviceType, and impressions were selected, the impressions column would contain the total number of impressions for the device type for that date:

gregorianDate accountId campaignId deviceType impressions
2018-01-05 00:00:00 71086605 240531207 Computer 4
2018-01-05 00:00:00 71086605 240531207 Smartphone 3
2018-01-05 00:00:00 71086605 240531207 Tablet 3
2018-01-05 00:00:00 71086605 240531207 Unknown 1

If the network column were also selected, a row for every unique combination of deviceType and network would be created and impressions would be aggregated accordingly:

gregorianDate accountId campaignId deviceType network impressions
2018-01-05 00:00:00 71086605 240531207 Computer AOL Search 3
2018-01-05 00:00:00 71086605 240531207 Smartphone AOL Search 1
