Questions about The Trade Desk
What can I manage through The Trade Desk connection?
Tap reads advertisers, campaigns, ad groups and aggregate campaign reporting. The planner can create campaigns and paused ad groups, rename them, change flight budgets and bids, pause ad groups and archive campaigns. Creative uploads, seeds, audiences and billing stay in The Trade Desk.
Will connecting or creating a campaign start spending?
No. New campaigns start without ad groups, and new ad groups start paused. Activation is a separate approval and can start spending immediately. Activation, budget and bid changes need a Tap subscription.
Who can use my connection, and what happens if I disconnect?
Only you can use your token in the Tap workspace. Disconnecting deletes Tap’s saved token but does not pause campaigns. Pause ad groups in The Trade Desk to stop delivery, and revoke the token in OpenTTD if you no longer need it.
