Connect Google Business
Authorize Google Business, select a location, and publish local posts from approved campaigns.
Short answer
The Google Business channel publishes a local post to an authorized Google Business Profile. The channel is ready only after Google authorization and selection of a usable location.
Google account
The account must have access to the business profile you want to use.
Selected location
AdSpark syncs available locations and needs to know the active destination.
Local post
Google Business content is sent as a clear local update, with a call to action when the flow provides one.
Prerequisites
Before connecting, check that the Google Business Profile exists, is accessible from the Google account you use, and can be managed by you.
Business permission
AdSpark asks for the `business.manage` permission to access Google Business accounts and locations.
Missing location
If no location is accessible, the channel stays pending and AdSpark cannot publish.
Token renewal
If Google asks for a new connection, restart the flow from Settings > Channels.
Configure it in AdSpark
The Google Business card shows authorization and selection. If permission is granted but no location is selected, the status shows an action required state.
Authorize
The Google OAuth flow returns to channel settings once permission is granted.
Sync
AdSpark can sync the Google Business accounts and locations available to the account.
Active destination
A campaign publishes to the active Google Business destination for the relevant market or brand.
Publish from a campaign
In the editor, the Google Business channel uses the local post field. Direct publishing calls Google Business only if the channel is ready and the destination is valid.
Approval before publish
Like every channel, Google Business does not publish when the Spark is generated.
Content limit
The post sent to Google is a summary up to 1500 characters in the current flow.
Troubleshooting
Common issues are missing permission, missing location, inactive destination or a Google account that must be reconnected.
