Challenge
You are planning to use the ADvendio Media Buying features to purchase media via Google Display & Video 360.
Solution
This article covers the necessary fields and configurations for setting up Buying Orders and Buying Items with the Google Display & Video 360 Integration (further referred to as DV360).
Programmatic Buyer import
1. Buying Configuration
To begin the buying configuration process for successfully pushing Buying Orders/Items to DV360, follow these steps:
Access the App Launcher and search for "Buying Configurations."
Once in the "Buying Configuration" section, click on "New" to start
General Information
Select “DV360” as a connection and select the “Active” checkbox
The following image shows the recommended set of fields to add for the DV360 integration:
2. Buying Campaigns (OPTIONAL)
You can directly configure Buying Campaigns in ADvendio, they will equal Campaigns in Display & Video 360.
ADvendio Field | DV360 Settings | Additional information |
|---|---|---|
Advertiser | Select the advertiser for your campaign |
|
Start / End Date | Sets the start and end date for your campaign. |
|
Goal KPI |
| possible values:
|
Goal KPI Amount |
| If the Goal KPI is ‘Other’ this will be ignored |
As of April 2024 the Buying Campaign created in ADvendio has to be considered as a placeholder, meaning that it’s not possible to submit a Buying Campaign to DV360.
The record created in this section can be linked in the Buying Order to have an immediate overview of the relationship between the Order and the Campaign.
We’re planning to enhance this feature in the next releases.
3. Buying Order
Buying Orders in ADvendio are used to configure your Insertion Orders for DV360. If you are not using the ADvendio Buying Campaigns, we will reuse some information to create a new campaign in DV360 automatically.
With version 2.170 DV360 orders support two different Budget Types:
Impression Budget
Revenue Budget
The values are selectable from the dropdown menu that appears when creating a new Buying Order, as shown in the image below:
Once a Budget Type is selected, it won’t be editable anymore
Important Note
The ADvendio org in use may not include these two picklist values by default. If they are missing, an error will appear when creating a new Buying Order:
To avoid this issue, ensure the following fields are added:
Impression Budget
Amount Budget
Begin by adding them to the Buying Order Budget Type picklist, then include them in the Xandr and DV360 Record Type picklist values as well. (No need to add them to other Record Types, as DV360 and Xandr are the only integrations supporting this selection).
The following images show an example of the fields added in the above-mentioned sections:

Setup
Update Picklist Field Values:
It might be that you can’t find certain values for fields like Goal KPI in your ADvendio environment. In this case, you have to manually update those in your Salesforce Setup.
Please use the values listed in the table above. Make sure to match the terms here with the API value of your picklist values. If you want, you can change the label to your desired terms, as long as the API value matches those expected by ADvendio.
In order to change the picklist fields in Salesforce, you need to go to the setup and either edit the fields on the Buying Campaign, Buying Order and Buying Item object directly or you need to navigate to the Picklist Value Sets.
