Baidu – Issues with connecting new data sources

We are still in the process of arranging a solution for our Baidu integration. Acquiring access to the new Baidu API is a very thorough process, which is why it is taking a considerable amount of time. Rest assured, restoring the integration is still a priority.

We have noticed that existing data sources are now starting to fail to import data. The API tokens for these data sources have begun to expire, and due to the new authorization method required by the Baidu API, we cannot update these tokens. We are still working on upgrading our Baidu integration to support the new authorization method, but due to new requirements it could be a lengthy process.

We will continue to post updates on our progress here.

As a temporary solution, we recommend exporting reports manually from the Baidu Ads dashboard and importing them to Funnel using our File Import feature. Please refer to this article for more information on the File Import process: https://help.funnel.io/en/articles/4528018-file-import-import-your-own-data

We are currently experiencing issues when connecting new Baidu data sources to Funnel. The requirements for authenticating to the Baidu Ads API have changed, and we are currently investigating what must be done on our end in order to restore full functionality to our integration.

Existing data sources appear to be unaffected, and are currently downloading as intended.
