Amazon Ads Audience Management Connector Setup Guide | Server-Side Connectors |Preview of Tealium Docs

Amazon Ads Audience Management streamlines the upload, management, and use of audiences within Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC). With the Amazon Ads Audience connector, you can create and upload audiences through the Audience Management Service that are eligible for follow-on actions through the Amazon DSP, AMC UI workflows, or API actions, such as AMC rule-based audiences.

This connector can add visitors to either AMC or DSP audiences. For AMC audiences, you must create an AMC connection during the Configuration process. For DSP audiences, you must select an Advertiser ID when you create the DSP audience.

This connector uses the following vendor API:

API Name: Amazon Ads API
API Version: v1.0
