In this article you will find everything you need to know to get started with DatAds.
There are 3 basic steps to fully set up your account:
Step 1: Log in to DatAds
Go to datads.io and select “Try for free” in the top right corner to start a trial or create an account. If your company already has an account, ask your administrator to send you an email invitation to join the existing workspace.
Alternatively, the administrator of the existing workspace can activate automatic domain detection. This will automatically add all users with allowed domains to the workspace.
If you already have a DatAds account, you can log in to your existing account here.
Step 2: Create your first connection
In the next step, you should create your first “connection”. Select one of the available platforms here: Meta, TikTok or Google Ads. To do this, navigate to “Add Connection” and select the platform that suits you.
1.Click on “Add Connection”
2.Choose the first platform to be connected
Follow the process on Meta/TikTok/Google so that we can pull the initial data.
3. Select the ad accounts you want to connect
Check the accounts you want to add to DatAds on the right.
You can use the client dropdown to select whether you want to create a new client or add the account to an existing client.
Under Client name, you can customize the name of your client.
Optional: Enter the website to automatically use the site's favicon as the client logo.
Once you have selected all the desired clients, click on “Save & Next” to continue.

4. Load account data
After you have clicked on “Save & Next”, the first step is to load the data from the last 30 days.
This process takes about 5-10 minutes. Please do not close the window and stay on the page.
As soon as this data is loaded, you can use DatAds.
IMPORTANT: The remaining data from the last 12 months will be loaded in the background and will be available in your account after 24 hours at the latest.
🔒 All your data is first encrypted and then stored in a secure database. You can delete Connections and the associated data in the admin area.
Step 3: Invite a team
Once you have successfully created your first connection, it's time to invite your employees. Because only if everyone involved in the creative area is invited to DatAds can you benefit to the maximum from our solution.
These are the most important steps to get started with DatAds.
Now that you have successfully created your first connection and invited your employees, you can start analyzing your ads straight away.
