Ad Group (Old)

Use this report only if your campaigns are in the old structure. Else use this pipeline for a new version.

Ad group is the middle level advertising unit which is used to plan the delivery of strategic ads. It defines the ad objectives, delivery method, and recipients of an ad. Proper use of ad groups can help control budget of each audience, manage delivery time and evaluate the effectiveness of each audience. With ad groups, you can manage a group of ads at the same time, including:

  1. Ad placement

  2. Ad objectives

  3. Target audience

  4. Ad budget

  5. Ad delivery cycle

  6. Optimization goal

  7. Ad bid

An advertiser account is the basic account on TikTok For Business platform. Before being able to create and manage ads with TikTok For Business, a user must either own an advertiser account or be granted permission by advertisers to manage their advertiser account and assets.

All advertisers which your credentials have access to should be available here. If they are not, please check the credentials selected / configured by you. While you can add multiple advertisers, the table size may become too large and so it is advisable to add one advertisers per pipeline and use Union queries in the data warehouse to join the data for consumption
