Why teams connect Bingads and DuckDB

Give your team Bingads's contacts, campaigns, and engagement in DuckDB: query them with SQL, push audiences built from your own data back to Bingads, and skip the marketing API.

Bingads holds the people, audiences, and campaign activity that marketing runs on, but that data sits behind interfaces built for marketers, not for your internal systems. Engineers and analysts who need contacts, list membership, or engagement, for reporting, attribution, or product logic, end up writing integration code against a rate-limited API and maintaining it forever. Meanwhile the customer and usage data marketers want for targeting already lives in DuckDB, hard to get into campaigns without manual exports.

Stacksync mirrors Accounts, Customers & Users, Performance Reports, Campaigns, Ad Groups from Bingads into Attached databases, Database files, Schemas, Tables in DuckDB field by field, in real time, and in both directions. Marketing records become rows your code can query and join with product and customer data; audiences and attributes computed in DuckDB, from usage, orders, or account status, sync back into Bingads to drive campaigns and ads, with Bingads kept authoritative for engagement. You decide which side owns which fields, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push aggregates computed in DuckDB out to a CRM or business tools so analysis results reach operational systems.
  • 02 Use DuckDB as a transform step: read synced Parquet exports, aggregate with SQL, and write results back to an operational database.
  • 03 Two-way sync remarketing and customer-match audiences so audience lists stay aligned between a CDP or CRM and Microsoft Advertising.
  • 04 Push campaign structure - campaigns, ad groups, ads, keywords, and negative keywords - from a planning database into Microsoft Advertising through the Campaign Management or Bulk service.

Common sync patterns

Keep contact attributes consistent

Lifecycle stage, subscription status, or plan maintained on either side stays current on the other, ending exports and dual data entry.

Query Bingads like a database

Contacts, leads, audiences, and campaign metrics from Bingads live in DuckDB as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data and reachable without touching the vendor API.

Build audiences from your own data

Segments computed in DuckDB from product usage, orders, or account status sync into Bingads as lists or audiences, so campaigns and ads target the people your data says they should.

What you can sync between Bingads and DuckDB

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Bingads objects DuckDB objects How this pairing syncs
Budgets & Bid Strategies Shared budgets and automated bid strategies (e.g. Maximize Conversions, Target CPA); read and write so finance-approved spend and bids apply to live campaigns. Database files Single-file .duckdb databases that jobs read and write directly on disk or object storage. Budgets & Bid Strategies is specific to Bingads and Database files to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Audiences & Remarketing Lists Remarketing, customer-match, in-market, and similar audiences; read and create/associate to keep audience lists aligned with a CDP or CRM. Schemas Namespaces within a database used to organize tables in sync outputs. Audiences & Remarketing Lists is specific to Bingads and Schemas to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Conversion Goals & Offline Conversions Conversion goals (read/create) plus ApplyOfflineConversions, which imports offline conversion events (closed deals, qualified leads) back into Microsoft Advertising to inform bidding. Tables Columnar tables created via SQL; the destination for materialized sync data. Conversion Goals & Offline Conversions is specific to Bingads and Tables to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Ad Extensions (Assets) Sitelink, callout, image, call, and other extensions/assets associated to campaigns and ad groups; CRUD via Campaign Management. Views SQL views used to shape or filter data for downstream consumers. Ad Extensions (Assets) is specific to Bingads and Views to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Accounts, Customers & Users Customer Management hierarchy - accounts, customers, and users - read and managed to mirror agency/MCC-style structure and access into an internal database. External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) Files DuckDB queries in place without loading, common as a sync interchange format. Accounts, Customers & Users is specific to Bingads and External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Performance Reports Campaign, ad group, keyword, geographic, and audience performance via the asynchronous Reporting service (submit, poll, download); read-only spend and conversion data. Attached databases Additional database files or external systems attached into one session for cross-source queries. Performance Reports is specific to Bingads and Attached databases to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Bingads and DuckDB

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Bingads DuckDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Bingads for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No webhooks or change-data-capture.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to DuckDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

DuckDB Bingads Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls DuckDB for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling or full re-reads.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Bingads through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Bingads: Service-specific throttling rather than one global limit. Ad Insight caps calls per user per minute with a 60-second sliding window at the customer level. The Bulk service caps download/upload calls and, once hit, returns 'no more bulk upload or download calls will be permitted for this account,' clearing after up to 15 minutes; Campaign Management caps entities per call, so large changes go through Bulk.
  • DuckDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by local compute and I/O.

How the Bingads and DuckDB connectors work

Bingads

Integration surface
SOAP web services (Bing Ads API v13): Campaign Management, Bulk, Reporting, Customer Management, Customer Billing, and Ad Insight services, plus offline conversion import. SDKs for C#, Java, Python, and PHP; a Sandbox environment mirrors production.
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 (Microsoft identity platform / Azure AD) access tokens passed in the SOAP AuthenticationToken header, plus a Microsoft Advertising Developer Token that authorizes API access; calls are scoped by CustomerId and account (CustomerAccountId).
Change detection
No webhooks or change-data-capture. Reporting is asynchronous - submit a report request, poll until it completes, then download the file. Current campaign state is refreshed via scheduled Bulk downloads (full or by last-sync date) or entity list calls.
Capabilities

Rate limits
Service-specific throttling rather than one global limit. Ad Insight caps calls per user per minute with a 60-second sliding window at the customer level. The Bulk service caps download/upload calls and, once hit, returns 'no more bulk upload or download calls will be permitted for this account,' clearing after up to 15 minutes; Campaign Management caps entities per call, so large changes go through Bulk.

DuckDB

Integration surface
In-process SQL engine via client libraries (Python, Node.js, JDBC, CLI); no server or network API by default
Authentication
None built in; access control is file-system level (MotherDuck adds token auth for its hosted service)
Change detection
Polling or full re-reads; no change feed or transaction log API
Capabilities
