Map Performance Data

Here is how to map the performance data received from platforms to your Bionic placements in Bionic for Agencies.

Learn in Bionic Academy: Map Performance Data

As Bionic receives data from platforms, there needs to be "instructions" as to which placements to associate the data with. Bionic offers two options for mapping data.

In this article, we'll cover the two options for mapping data:

  1. Automate Data Mapping
  2. Map Data Manually

Automate Data Mapping

Automating the mapping process is typically the best approach to avoid having to manually enter ID numbers. As data is sent to Bionic, it will include a Campaign/Placement Name as entered in the ad platform. Bionic can utilize this field to read the Bionic Placement ID if it has been included.

You can utilize Bionic's ability to generate Naming Conventions to ensure that the Placement Names include the Bionic ID.

Placement IDs are also displayed near the beginning of each Placement in Bionic.

  1. When creating your campaigns/placements in the ad platform, include:
    BA:<Bionic Placement ID>
  2. Include the Campaign/Placement Name in the report sent over to Bionic.

When the performance data arrives, Bionic will automatically attach results to the applicable placement.


Bionic operates on a strict 1:1 placement model. Each placement in Bionic must directly correspond to a single placement or campaign in the source platform so performance data can be accurately mapped. This applies to all media types.

Map Data Manually

In the scenario where ad platform data is already built out, or if you cannot otherwise include the BA:<Bionic Placement ID> in the campaign/placement name in the ad platform, you can manually map the data to the appropriate Bionic placement.

Data can be manually mapped from either the Media Plan or the Performance Integration. Mapping from the Media Plan allows you to update the integration ID for a specific placement, while mapping from the Performance Integration allows you to view and manage placement mappings for the integration from one location.

  1. Map Data from the Media Plan
  2. Map Data from the Performance Integration

NOTE: Before mapping data manually, ensure the corresponding integration is set up for your campaign. See Set Campaign Integrations for instructions.

Map Data from the Media Plan

  1. Confirm that the integration is added to the Campaign.
  2. Go to the Media Plan tab.
  3. Find the appropriate placement.
  4. In the Integrations section, find the column that corresponds with the appropriate integration.
  5. Enter or paste the Ad Platform campaign/Placement ID.

When Bionic receives the data report, it will utilize this ID to apply the results to this placement.

Map Data from the Performance Integration

The Performance Integration provides a consolidated view of the placements associated with an integration. From here, you can manually map source data to existing Bionic placements by adding the corresponding Source ID.

  1. Click on your company name on the left side of the black strip at the top of your screen.
  2. Click the Administration link.
  3. Click on the Integrations tab.
  4. Find and open the appropriate integration.
  5. Click Placements.
  6. Find the appropriate Bionic placement.
  7. Enter or paste the corresponding Source ID.

Once the Source ID has been added, the source data will be linked to the corresponding Bionic placement. 

NOTE: Placements that exist in the source platform but have not been created in Bionic may also appear within the Performance Integration. See Manage a Performance Integration for instructions on importing and managing source placements.
