Linking Activation - Dynamic Tag Management (DTM) account to Marketing Cloud

How to link Activation - Dynamic Tag Management (DTM) account to Marketing Cloud

  1. Log in to the Marketing Cloud via marketing.adobe.com.

  2. If it is your first login through the Marketing Cloud, then the first page requires an account link before you can link to DTM. If it is not your first login and you have already successfully linked other tools proceed to step 3. 

    To link to one of the six solutions available, click 'Get Access' and sign in with the login that is associated to the selected tool. After at least one account is linked, Activation can be linked.

  3. Click the account icon in the top, right corner. Then click the hyperlink for the company name. If you have access to multiple organizations, click 'Manage Organizations' at the bottom of the list. 

  4. From within the Organization pane, click Add Organization.

  5. Select 'Adobe Dynamic Tag Management' from the dropdown and log in to link the account.

After the accounts are linked, DTM can be accessed by clicking 'Activation' in the left side menu.
