Go to the Destinations overview page and click the Add destination button. Select Yahoo and click Continue. You can then authenticate Hightouch to Yahoo by entering the required credentials.
The required credentials depend on whether you want to sync conversion events, segments, or both.
Once you've set up your Yahoo destination and have a model to pull data from, you can set up your sync configuration to begin syncing data. Go to the Syncs overview page and click the Add sync button to begin. Then, select the relevant model and the Yahoo destination you want to sync to.
To match rows from your model to events in Yahoo, you need to select the model column that contains values that match the event ID.
The event ID is an unique identifier used by Yahoo DSP to prevent duplication in reporting. If provided and an event has the same value as a previously synced event, Hightouch doesn't process the duplicate event.
Yahoo requires you include the VMCID parameter when sending events.
The VMCID is the value of the pixel context macro collected from the click or the third-party ad server.
The Yahoo DSP enables you to build audiences that are most responsive to your campaigns, are most likely to convert, or are otherwise advantageous.
Begin by selecting the Yahoo account you would like to sync to.
Then, select whether to create a new audience or use an existing one.
When creating a new audience, you can optionally enter a name; otherwise, Hightouch defaults to the name of the associated model. To use an existing audience, select the desired audience from the dropdown.
Yahoo DSP API allows you to create different types of audiences.
Hightouch supports email address, device ID, and IP address types.
You can only select one audience type per sync.
You can later combine the different audience types when building your campaigns in Yahoo.
To identify which users to add or update in an audience, select model columns and the corresponding Yahoo fields.
The available fields vary depending on your selected audience type.
