Finance Ads API

financeAds API integration

Strackr connects to financeAds with your User ID and your API key, both found in your financeAds publisher account. financeAds can also be connected through the API of its group, verticalAds: that is a different connection type, with its own credentials.

Get your User ID and API key

1. Sign in to your publisher account on dashboard.financeads.net.

   

2. Your User ID is the number in brackets next to your account name, at the top right (1).

   

3. Open Statistics (1) and choose Reporting-API (2).

   

4. Click Show API key (1).

   

5. Enter your financeAds password (1) and click Show (2).

   

6. Your API key appears (1): click API Key Copy (2).

   

Connect financeAds to Strackr

1. In Strackr, open Connections › Manage Connections, click Connect a network, search Finance Ads and choose the API connection type (1). The other type, API verticalAds, is the connection through verticalAds.

   

2. Give the connection a name (1), paste your User ID (2) and your API key in Key (3), choose the Currency financeAds pays you in (4), then Confirm (5).

   

You can now connect!

Good to know

• The currency of the connection is a filter, not a conversion: the import only brings the leads paid in that currency. If financeAds pays you in euros and the connection says USD, the import comes back empty.
• If the import stops on a permission error, ask financeAds to enable the lead report for your account: the API key alone does not open it.
