Announcement: Required Action for all Active Bing Destination Accounts (5/26/22)

On June 6, 2022, LiveRamp's OAuth integration with Bing will be updated. If you have active Bing destination accounts that use an OAuth connection that was created before May 1, 2022, you will need to take action as a result of this update. If you do not take action, any Bing destination accounts with active distributions that use a connection created before May 1, 2022, might have their new deliveries fail starting June 6.

We recommend that as soon as possible after we update the integration on June 6, 2022, you create a new Bing OAuth connection and validate it for all active Bing destination accounts that use a Bing OAuth connection that was created before May 1. This will ensure that there are no disruptions to your Bing distributions. See the sections below for complete instructions.

Note

If you do not have any active Bing destination accounts that use an OAuth connection that was created before May 1, 2022, you do not need to take any action.

If you activate a new Bing destination account and use an OAuth connection that was created after May 1, those distributions will be unaffected.
