An example tool to perform bulk tasks using DCM API.

This AppScript-based tool lets you use a Google Spreadsheet to perform bulk tasks including - Bulk Create Campaigns - Bulk Create Placements - Bulk Create Ads - Bulk Create Creatives - Bulk Create Landing Pages.

It uses DCM APIs to pull and push data to DCM.

The same result could be achieved by manually creating each entities through the DCM UI, but the tool leverages the APIs and Spreadsheet functionalities to automate the most of manual steps.

In order to use this tool you need to have valid access to the DoubleClick Campaign Manager APIs through your Google Account, and you will need to enable that API in a Google Cloud Project so that you can authenticate the tool (see the corresponding step of Initial Setup section below).

• Create a new Google Spreadsheet and open its script editor (from Tools > Script Editor)
  • Copy the code from code.js and utils.js in two corresponding code.gs, utilities.gs files in your AppScript project
  • Enable DCM API Resources > Advanced Google Services and enable the DCM/DFA Reporting and Trafficking API (v3.1)
  • Click on Google API Console link at the bottom of Advanced Google Services window to open the Google Cloud Platform project, select Library from the left hand menu, then search and enable the DCM API in the project
• Close the script editor and spreadsheet tabs both (this is necessary so the custom functions appear)
• Re-open the Go back to the Spreadsheet, click on the DCM Functions menu and select Setup Sheets for the initial tabs and header rows setup (wait for the script to finish)
• Remove any tab not needed (aside from the ones created by script)
• Input the DCM Profile ID in the setup tab (i.e. at cell C5) then select Data from the sheet menu and select Named Ranges.... to set the title DCMUserProfileID and value Setup!C5

• As general rules
  • Only manually edit columns with green headers.
  • Columns with blue headers will be auto-populated.
  • Columns with a header* means it's required, otherwise optional
