Adform report building guide

Use the Adform data source connector to pull data from multiple campaigns in one report to see which one is working the best and in which locations are your ads performing the best. You can also combine the data with your social media ads to have an overview of your campaign’s success.

Before you begin

Before you build reports, you need to connect the data source to Supermetrics.
