Special Configuration Options

Getting Keyword and City

It is possible to pull Keyword and City data from CM360. If you need either of these dimensions, contact Singular support to set them up for you.

Getting Data from Display & Video 360

Basic data such as cost per campaign/sub-campaign for DV360 campaigns can be pulled through the CM360 data connector. You can contact Singular support to set it up for you. 

However, if you want additional metrics and/or higher granularity from DV360, set up a separate Google Display & Video 360 data connector.

Getting Floodlight Activities (Conversion Events)

Note: These instructions are for Singular. If you need help with setting up Floodlight activities on Google, see their documentation.

Singular can pull any "floodlight activities" that you need from CM360 and display their stats in your singular reports. 

To get floodlight activity data:

  1. Contact Singular support and send the team a list of the floodlight activity IDs you need. 
  2. Singular will then make these activities available for you as options on Singular's Events page.
  3. In your Singular account, go to Settings > Events. If you have separate tabs for Cohort Events and Conversion Events, go to Conversion Events.
  4. Add a new event (see How do I add conversion events?). 
  5. In the CM360 dropdown, you will see a list of the floodlight activities you requested. You can map each activity into a separate Singular event or combine multiple floodlight activities into a single event.

    The next day, when Singular pulls daily data for your account, it will pull these activities' stats as well. 

  6. After Singular has populated the new conversion event(s) with some floodlight activity data, when you run a report on the Reports page, choose the conversion event(s) from the Events dropdown.
