MDP Creating Data Streams with API Connectors

API connectors enable you to easily connect data sources such as Google Ads or Facebook to Marketing Cloud Intelligence Data Pipelines. When you connect an API connector, an API data stream is created that automatically maps the data fields the vendor provides to the MDP data model, allowing you to access your information.

MDP offers various API connectors. Connecting API connectors to the platform is a dynamic process that changes according to the API connector you use. As a result, not all fields are available for each connector.
