Use CData Connect Cloud to connect to and integrate live Bing Ads data in Jitterbit.
Jitterbit is an enterprise iPaaS (integration platform as a service) that lets you streamline your data workflows. When paired with CData Connect Cloud, Jitterbit gets access to live Bing Ads data. This article demonstrates how to connect to Bing Ads using Connect Cloud and integrate with live Bing Ads data in Jitterbit.
CData Connect Cloud provides a pure OData interface for Bing Ads, allowing you to query data from Bing Ads without replicating the data to a natively supported database. Using optimized data processing out of the box, CData Connect Cloud pushes all supported SQL operations (filters, JOINs, etc.) directly to Bing Ads, leveraging server-side processing to return the requested Bing Ads data quickly.
Configure Bing Ads Connectivity for Jitterbit
Connectivity to Bing Ads from Jitterbit is made possible through CData Connect Cloud. To work with Bing Ads data from Jitterbit, we start by creating and configuring a Bing Ads connection.
- Log into Connect Cloud, click Connections and click Add Connection
- Select "Bing Ads" from the Add Connection panel
-
Enter the necessary authentication properties to connect to Bing Ads.
The Bing Ads APIs use the OAuth 2 standard. To authenticate, you will need valid Bing Ads OAuth credentials and you will need to obtain a developer token. See the Getting Started section in the Bing Ads data provider help documentation for an authentication guide.
- Click Create & Test
- Navigate to the Permissions tab in the Add Bing Ads Connection page and update the User-based permissions.
Add a Personal Access Token
If you are connecting from a service, application, platform, or framework that does not support OAuth authentication, you can create a Personal Access Token (PAT) to use for authentication. Best practices would dictate that you create a separate PAT for each service, to maintain granularity of access.
- Click on your username at the top right of the Connect Cloud app and click User Profile.
- On the User Profile page, scroll down to the Personal Access Tokens section and click Create PAT.
- Give your PAT a name and click Create.
- The personal access token is only visible at creation, so be sure to copy it and store it securely for future use.
Configure Bing Ads Endpoints for Jitterbit
After connecting to Bing Ads, create a workspace and virtual dataset for your desired table(s).
- Navigate to the Virtual Datasets page and click Add to create a new Workspace (or select an existing workspace).
- Click Add to add new assets to the Workspace.
- Select the Bing Ads connection (e.g. BingAds1) and click Next.
- Select the table(s) you wish to work with and click Confirm.
- Make note of the OData Service URL for your workspace, e.g. https://cloud.cdata.com/api/odata/{workspace_name}
