1. Authorise Delacon to send data to your DoubleClick Bid Manager

Advertiser

To start, contact your DoubleClick Account Manager to inform them you wish to enable the Delacon + DoubleClickintegration. 

You will then receive an email from your DoubleClick Account Manager asking for confirmation to allow Delacon to send data into your account. T

The Account Manager can access internally at DoubleClick with this link.At this point in time, you should also email support@delaconcorp.com and your Delacon Account Manager to enable the integration.

2. Setup your conversion label mapping and share that with Delacon

Floodlight activities are used in DoubleClick to group conversions by products, product groups, customer types,conversion channels or any other meaningful structure. This enables DoubleClick Bid Manager reporting to filter advertising campaign conversions.

If your offline conversions goal is to track how your customer interacts with your call center, progresses through an IVR and corresponding sales & leads, your mapping may look like:

Note: If you must upload the same conversion into both this Conversions API and the DoubleClick Search API, youshould define two different floodlight activities -- one to be populated by the DoubleClick Search API, and one populated by the DoubleClick Conversions API.

Creating the Floodlight activities in DoubleClick Bid Manager

Create new Floodlight activities (conversion tags) for Delacon to push data to DoubleClick. Please note the below‘activity’ is an example, advertisers can create any name for labels and send to Delacon. See suggested naming convention below. For each action that you would like to track, you should create a new Floodlight Activity; more specifically, there should be a one-to-one relationship between each IVR option or signal during a call and the DoubleClick Floodlight activity.

There are no restrictions on minimum/maximum quantity of conversion labels.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the DoubleClick Campaign Manager (DCM) API  differ from and/or work with the DoubleClick Search (DS) API?

● DoubleClick customers using  both APIs should be careful not to upload the same conversion to the same  Floodlight Activity via both APIs -- DoubleClick does not support deduplication  across APIs.

● If a customer must upload the same conversion into both  APIs, we suggest defining two different floodlight activities -- one populated  by the DoubleClick Search Event API, and one populated by the DoubleClick  Conversions API.  

● Ultimately, DoubleClick does  anticipate that both APIs will be unified. 

● Advertisers cannot specify  attribution method on the upload for the DoubleClick Conversions API - this  differs a bit from the DoubleClick Search API, where an advertiser can upload a  conversion pre-attributed to a specific click and the attribution is joined  accordingly. DoubleClick anticipates  this feature being enabled in the DoubleClick Conversions API in the future.
