# Microsoft Bing

> Adding Microsoft Bing Cost Tracking Integration

Integrating ClickFlare with Microsoft Bing enables ClickFlare to periodically ask for campaign cost information and update it automatically, making tracking and optimization even easier.

In this article, we'll go over the step-by-step process of setting up the API Cost Integration with Microsoft Bing.

**What you'll need for the integration:**

* An active Microsoft Bing Ads Account
* An active ClickFlare Account

Begin the process by:

1. Entering the **Settings Menu** (gear icon in the upper right corner) inside ClickFlare.
2. Go to the **Integrations** tab.
3. In the **Cost Tracking Integrations** section, click on **Add Integration**.

5. Select a workspace first, and then give your integration a name and finally pick the Microsoft Bing Account you want to connect to and the Integration Timezone.

   Note: The timezone should match the one in your **Microsoft Bing** account. If you already have A Microsoft Bing account connected to ClickFlare, you should be able to see it under "**Use an existing account**" (image below).

   After being redirected to ClickFlare, choose your newly connected account.
6. After clicking **Next**, you'll see all your ad accounts. Choose the ones from which you want costs to be pulled, then click **Save**.

   <Info>
     Note: You only need to create one integration per Business Account. In one integration, you can select multiple ad accounts. ClickFlare will then automatically know to which campaigns to associate costs to.

7. Optional Step - Specify the traffic source configurations you want to assign this cost integration to.

   If in this step you do not set which traffic source configurations will use this cost integration, you can alternatively set the cost integration on the traffic source configuration settings.

   <Info>
     **Important note:** Make sure that the traffic source configurations you select in this step belongs to the traffic source you created the integration for. Once done, click on **Save**.
   </Info>
8. Lastly, go to the traffic source configuration settings and add the previously created cost integration under the cost integration settings.

   <Info>
     **Important Note:** When adding a [Traffic Source](/docs/en/tracking/creating-a-traffic-source), remember to select the new integration you just added. Failing to do so, will result in costs not being pulled.
   </Info>

Congratulations, you’ve just finalized the cost integration of **Microsoft Bing Ads** in **ClickFlare**. From now on you’ll be able to see the cost of your campaigns directly from ClickFlare.
