How to connect YouTube Video Ads to ARIQ
Use this guide when an agency connects a client's YouTube Video Ads account, or when a business connects its own YouTube Video Ads account. The connection is saved on the open project.
Google Ads customer IDWho connects YouTube Video Ads
The connection is saved on one project. An agency connects each client from that client's project. A business connecting its own account uses its own project. Both follow the same Connect button.
Sign in to ARIQ with your agency user. Open the client project, then connect that client's YouTube Video Ads account. The client does not need an ARIQ login. Use the YouTube Video Ads login that can already see that client's data.
Sign in to ARIQ, open your project, and connect the YouTube Video Ads account this business already uses. You approve access with that same account.
