- On the Import tab, expand Data Streams List.
- Click Add New.
- Select Tik Tok Ads.
- In the General section, select the account that you want to pull data for. To add a new data source authentication, click Add New and enter your TikTok credentials.

To retrieve in-app event stats, in Extended Properties, select Get Conversion
Data.
In in-app events, the type is mapped to the Conversion Tag Name field, and the value is mapped to the Total Conversions field. The connector pulls both unique and total in-app event metrics. Unique in-app events are mapped to the total conversion field. Values from the total in-app events remain unmapped, under the Total In-App event measurement, and the app_install and real_time_app_install metrics come up empty because they aren’t supported in TikTok.When you select Get Conversion Data, you can also select Get SKAN in-app event to retrieve data from SKAN in-app event metrics. The data is on the ad-group level.
- To change the mapping, click Mapping. You can also access mapping by clicking Map to Model at the bottom of the Create New Stream page.
- To define advanced settings for the data stream, at the bottom of the Create New Stream page, click Advanced Settings.
- Click Create.

Quality check your data:
- Create a report in the TikTok Ads platform for the selected date range.
- Process the relevant data stream in MDP filtered to the same date range.
- Create an identical report or pivot table in MDP with the same date range, dimensions, and measurements.
- Compare and make sure that the measurement totals are aligned.
