Uploading a customer list in the Ad Editor - how do I get the Profile ID?

Hi Brooke Browne,

Thank you for using our Microsoft Advertising Community Forum!  My name is Lou and I will be assisting you with this query.

I understand you’d like to check how to get the Profile IDs to complete your customer targeting upload.  Profile IDs are a critical element in ensuring that your customer targeting efforts are efficient and effective. They represent unique identifiers that help in mapping and targeting specific customer profiles within the Microsoft Advertising ecosystem.

Availability and Storage of Profile IDs

Please know that profile IDs are stored in the system and not available on help page resources for reference. This design is intended to maintain the security and integrity of user data, ensuring that only authorized personnel can access and utilize these identifiers for advertising purposes.

When you set up individually using Microsoft Advertising User Interface (UI), you just need to search for the company, and the system will populate the profile ID. Please see sample below:

I know you have 600 companies for targeting, and a bulk upload is needed.  Don’t worry, as I can coordinate with our back-end team to assist and facilitate the process, with the Profile ID included.  Kindly reply to my Private Message so we can proceed further, we'll be happy to help!
