Troubleshooting tips for connecting to DoubleClick Campaign Manager data
If you are having trouble getting your DoubleClick Campaign Manager data into Klipfolio, here are some troubleshooting tips:
Scenario 1: You don't see your report in the drop-down list
The Reports drop-down list on the Connect Your Data page in Klipfolio shows your ten last modified reports. If you don't see your report in the list, go to your chosen report in DoubleClick Campaign Manager and rename it or make a minor, insignificant edit to it and then save your changes.
Scenario 2: You are getting an error message after clicking Submit.
There are two things you can do to rectify this:
- Verify that your report is in CSV format.
- Reduce the size of your report. Either shorten the date range or reduce the number of metrics in your report.
No matter what changes you make in DoubleClick, be sure to save your changes, and try setting up your DoubleClick Campaign Manager data source again.
How do I create a DoubleClick Campaign Manager custom Klip?
You create custom Klips from either your list of Klips or your Dashboard. You choose a data visualization format, for example, a pie chart, gauge, or table, and decide whether you want to use an existing data source or create a new one. In the Klip Editor, there are limitless opportunities to modify, relate, and display your data. See the following related articles for more information and get building!
