Google Campaign Manager 360 Floodlight Connector Setup Guide

The Google Campaign Manager 360 Floodlight connector inserts offline conversions into the Floodlight Conversion Tracking and Attribution system through the Campaign Manager API.

Floodlight is the conversion tracking system for Google Marketing platform. All properties within the platform — Campaign Manager 360, Display & Video 360, and Search Ads 360 — can use Floodlight.

Requirements

You must have a Campaign Manager 360 (CM360) account.
Your CM360 account must be enabled for API access.
You must have a user profile with access to this account.
Grant access to conversion data within your CM360 account by enabling the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/ddmconversions scope for your CM360 account.
Add user api@tealium.com to your account and grant it access to your CM360 account with the Insert offline conversions permission.
After you add user api@tealium.com to your CM360 account, use the generated profile ID in the connector, either on the configuration page or on an action page. If it is defined in both locations, the profile ID defined on an action page takes precedence.
