Criteo data source

Before you begin

Getting started

  1. Inside the admin panel click Add Data Source.
  2. Choose Criteo from the list.
  3. Authenticate using your API user Client ID and Client Secret.
  4. Enable required reports.
  5. Click Save.

Available reports

SegmentStream allows to import the following reports from Criteo.

Campaign performance

Table name

criteoCampaignPerformance_{ADVERTISER_ID}_{YYYYMMDD}

Table schema

Field name Type Mode
cost FLOAT REQUIRED
impressions INTEGER REQUIRED
clicks INTEGER REQUIRED
campaign_id INTEGER REQUIRED
campaign STRING REQUIRED

Additional transformation settings

Besides default reports import, SegmentStream allows to apply additional transformations for the data and help prepare cost data reports grouped by UTM.

This might be very handy if you need to stitch cost data with website sessions or send cost data into Google Analytics.

To enable this transformation use “Import cost data grouped by UTM” setting. Once enabled, a new table with cost data grouped by UTM will appear in your data warehouse.

Table name

criteoCosts_{ADVERTISER_ID}_{YYYYMMDD}

Table schema

Field name Type Mode
date DATE NULLABLE
cost FLOAT NULLABLE
clicks FLOAT NULLABLE
impressions FLOAT NULLABLE
utmTerm INTEGER NULLABLE
utmCampaign STRING NULLABLE
utmContent STRING NULLABLE
utmMedium STRING NULLABLE
utmSource STRING NULLABLE
currency STRING NULLABLE

UTM matching for campaigns

Currently, SegmentStream does not support automatic UTM matching for Criteo campaigns. This means that you would need to match Criteo campaigns mannually inside the SegmentStream admin panel.

By default, the following matching applies for utm_source and utm_medium:

  • utm_source ▸ criteo
  • utm_medium ▸ cpc

This matching can be changed inside the admin panel by specifying appropriate values UTM source and UTM medium options.

For all your Criteo campaigns you need to define matching between the Campaign ID and UTM campaign.

For example, if you have a Criteo campaign with the Campaign ID = 123123123 with the following link to the website: http://www.site.com/?utm_source=criteo&utm_medium=retargeting&utm_campaign=upper_funnel, the mapping should be the following:

  • 123123123 ▸ upper_funnel

This is how it might look inside the admin panel: Criteo URL params matching
