Managing Connectors
Last updated: September 25, 2026
This article covers how to connect, configure, disable and delete connectors in Polar, plus the full list of available connectors.
Connect a data source
Before you start, make sure you're an Admin in your Polar workspace and have admin access on the platform you're connecting (for example, Shopify, Facebook or Google Ads). No other setup is needed.
Go to the Connectors page in Polar.
Search for the connector you want to add.
Follow the prompts to sign in and authorize access to your data.
Repeat for each tool you use.
Polar starts importing your historical data straight away. This usually finishes within 24 hours, and then your dashboards will populate. For how often data refreshes after that, see Data Syncs.
Don't see your platform? Check whether it's available as a custom connector, or use the Google Sheets connector to import offline spend, influencer costs, or any other custom data.
Connector settings
Most connectors let you add more than one account, such as several Shopify stores or ad accounts. A few have extra settings:
Connector | What you can configure |
Shopify | Add more stores with Add Shopify Account. |
Google Analytics 4 | Add multiple properties. Only one can be active at a time. |
Amazon Ads | Set the region to match your Amazon account. |
Criteo | Set the currency and report time zone to match your Criteo account. |
Attribution windows: ad platform metrics in Polar use the attribution settings configured in each ad platform. Polar inherits them and doesn't override them. See Can I change the attribution window for my ad platform data?
Disable or delete a connector
Action | How | What happens to your data |
Disable | On the Connectors page, switch the connector's status from Connected to Paused. | Syncing pauses. Your historical data stays in Polar. |
Delete | On the Connectors page, click the trash icon next to the connector. | All historical data from that connector is removed from your dashboards. |
If you only want to stop new data coming in, disable the connector instead of deleting it.
Troubleshooting
I can't add or reconnect a connector
If the Connect button is greyed out or shows an error, you probably don't have the right role. Only Admins can add or manage connectors.
Check your role under My Team in Account Settings.
Ask an Admin on your team to change your role if needed.
Still stuck? Reach out through the in-app chat.
For errors specific to one platform, see that connector's article (for example, Facebook Ads or Google Ads).
