3. Set up Amazon Ads integration
The below instruction covers setting up an integration with Amazon Ads from scratch.
To set up an integration from a pre-set dashboard template, visit our Dashboard examples and reporting templates page.
Step 1: Source application
Select "Amazon Ads" as your source application to begin the integration process, pick your needed destination application (you can change it later), and click "set up from scratch".
Step 2: Source account
Connect and choose the specific Amazon Ads account you wish to integrate with Coupler.io.
Step 3: Basic settings
Configure the basic settings for your report:
- Ad Accounts: Choose the ad account(s) you want to include in the report.
- Report Type: Choose the type of report you want to generate.
Step 4: Report period
Define the period for your report:
- Start Date: The beginning date of the report period.
- End Date: The ending date of the report period.
- Split Data by Period: Option to segment the report data by specific time intervals. You can select one option from list: Daily or Totals only.
Please be aware that the Amazon Ads API has specific requirements for the start and end date periods:
Start date should not be earlier than 95 days from today
Start date to end date range should not be more than 31 days
Step 5: Metrics
- Select the metrics you want to include in your report.
- You can choose multiple metrics depending on your reporting needs.
Step 6: Additional settings
Further refine your report with advanced settings if needed:
- Advanced Filters: Apply filters to focus on specific aspects of your data for more detailed analysis.
Due to Amazon API specifics, you may see the message “The requested report is currently being generated and may take up to 3 hours” when running the importer for the first time. You can re-run the importer after 3 hours to retrieve the report, or if it’s scheduled, it will automatically retry until the report is ready.
If you see this message in the preview, feel free to close the tab and return later, as the report generation is already in progress on the server side. You can also fully configure and schedule the importer, then run it manually to initiate report generation. With a scheduled importer, the system will automatically retry several times to retrieve the report data once it’s available.

5. Set up your data destination
Continue setting up the integration depending on the system you want to import data to. Select your tool from the list of supporteddata destinations and follow the relevant setup guide.
6. Update your data automatically on schedule
Turn on "Automatic data refresh" in the importer so your data remains up-to-date in the destination without requiring manual updates.
You can schedule data imports at specific intervals (e.g., hourly, daily, weekly) and/or days, allowing you to have up-to-date information available for analysis, reporting, or decision-making. This automation enhances efficiency and ensures your reports or dashboards are always populated with the latest data.
