Most powerful ways to connect Google Ads and Google Cloud Translate
Google Ads + Google Cloud Translate + Google Sheets: Tracks Google Ads campaign performance across different languages. When a new row with ad data is added to Google Sheets, the text is translated using Google Cloud Translate. The translated text, along with other performance metrics, is then updated in a separate Google Sheet for analysis.
Google Cloud Translate + Google Ads + Slack: Automates the process of notifying marketing teams about new ad translations. When text is translated using Google Cloud Translate, it then triggers an update to the Google Ads campaign, and sends a message to a designated Slack channel, allowing for immediate review and deployment.
