About the “Linked accounts” page and Product Linking

The “Linked accounts” page in your Google Ads and your Manager Account makes it possible for you to connect your Google Ads account to a variety of first and third party data sources. Bringing additional data and information into your account can help make your campaigns more effective, drive better ROI, and gain better insights into your campaign performance.

The Linked accounts page is organized into 3 main sections, designed to help you easily find the products you are looking for:

  • Your linked accounts and products
  • Your unlinked accounts and products, separated by the following:
    • From Google (alphabetical order)
    • Other popular products (alphabetical order)

From this page you can search for products by filtering for the following categories:

  • All
  • Conversions
  • Apps
  • Customer match
  • Lead ads

You can also search for products by name using the search bar at the top of the page. To view product descriptions, hover your mouse over a product name, or click the icon next to the name.

Under “Manage & Link” you can check how many accounts are linked for each product, the number of pending requests for each product, when the accounts status were last modified.
