While changes you make in Google Ads accounts are automatically visible in the new Search Ads 360 experience, changes you make in other types of external accounts such as Microsoft Advertising need to be synced into Search Ads 360. You can manually sync each time you make a change in an external account or schedule syncs to occur daily.
To schedule a sync for one or more accounts:
- Sign in to your Search Ads 360 experience.
- Navigate to a manager account.
- On the left page menu, click Settings, and then click Sub-account settings.
- Select the checkbox next to one or more client accounts in the account tree.
To filter the account tree to show only the types of accounts you want to sync, click the filter icon
and add a filter.

- In the Sync panel, select Daily schedule.
- Select the time and time zone for the sync to start every day.
If a client account uses a different time zone, Search Ads 360 will convert the scheduled time into the account's time zone. For example, if you select 4 AM New York time when you schedule a sync, accounts that use Los Angeles time will sync at 4 AM New York time/1 AM Los Angeles time. - Click Apply.
The schedule takes effect immediately. For example, if it’s currently 9:00 AM and you schedule a sync for 10 AM, the first scheduled sync will start today at 10 AM.
Don't modify existing campaigns, ad groups, keywords, or other items in the Search Ads 360 account while the account is syncing. These changes could be lost or overwritten. You can work in other accounts that are not being synced.
The Sync status column in account tree indicates if a sync is in progress.

Notes
-
You can still manually sync an account that is included in a scheduled sync.
-
Scheduled syncs do not sync paused accounts. You can schedule syncs for a paused account, and you can pause an account that is currently included in a scheduled sync, but the account will not be synced by schedule until you activate the account.
