Connecting to Google Campaign Manager

Establishing a Connection shows how to authenticate to Google Campaign Manager and configure any necessary connection properties. You can also configure cmdlet capabilities through the available Connection properties, from data modeling to firewall traversal. The Advanced Settings section shows how to set up more advanced configurations and troubleshoot connection errors.

Connecting from PowerShell

The CData Cmdlets PowerShell Module for Google Campaign Manager provides a familiar way to interact with Google Campaign Manager from PowerShell. The cmdlets provide a standard PowerShell interface and an SQL interface to live data. The CData cmdlets enable you to work with Google Campaign Manager using standard PowerShell objects; you can chain the cmdlets to each other or other cmdlets in pipelines. The cmdlets also support PowerShell debug streams.

Data Manipulation with Cmdlets

See Establishing a Connection to learn how to get started with the Connect-GoogleCM cmdlet. You can then pass the GoogleCMConnection object returned to other cmdlets for accessing data:

• Select-GoogleCM

Executing SQL from PowerShell

You can execute any SQL query with the Invoke-GoogleCM cmdlet.

Accessing Debug Output from Streams

See Capturing Errors and Logging to obtain the debug output through PowerShell streams.

PowerShell Version Support

The standard cmdlets are supported in PowerShell 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Google Campaign Manager Version Support

The cmdlet surfaces the reports and fields available through the v2.8 Google Campaign Manager API. The cmdlet exposes all existing reports in your DCM instance as well as a set of generic tables for ad-hoc reporting.
