# Connect Google Ads

> Sync Google Ads campaign performance and cost-per-conversion for your clients.

Connecting Google lets ClientPlug pull campaign performance and
cost-per-conversion straight from your Google Ads account and attach it to your
clients.

## Connect your Google account

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Google step">
    Go to **Integrations → Google Ads** (or the Connect Google Ads step in the
    setup wizard).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Sign in with Google">
    Click connect. You'll be sent to Google to sign in and authorize ClientPlug
    to read your Google Ads data.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authorize">
    Approve the requested permissions. You're returned to ClientPlug with Google
    Ads connected.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Attach an account and campaigns

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose the Google Ads account">
    On a client record, attach the Google Ads account that runs their campaigns.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Assign campaigns">
    Expand the client on the dashboard and pick which campaigns to track in the
    **Google Campaigns** column.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Sync">
    Click **Refresh** to pull spend, results, and cost-per-result.
  </Step>
</Steps>

See [Campaigns](/essentials/campaigns) for how to read the metrics and set
cost-per-result targets.

## Connection lifetime

Google access **refreshes automatically**, so once connected it stays connected
without you having to re-authorize regularly. If you ever revoke access from
your Google account, just reconnect from the Integrations page.

## What ClientPlug accesses

ClientPlug requests **read-only** access to your Google Ads reporting so it can
display campaign performance. It does not create, edit, pause, or spend on your
campaigns.

## Disconnecting

Disconnect Google from **Integrations** at any time. Existing campaign data
stays visible but won't refresh until you reconnect. You can also revoke access
directly from your Google Account's **Security → Third-party access** settings.
