### Add Channel

To add a channel, begin by entering the channel's name. We recommend choosing a name that clearly describes the channel you are adding. This will assist with debugging if any issues arise. Now we need to get the Account ID and Conversion Token from the Pinterest dashboard.

1. Log in to Pinterest Ads Manager
2. In the top right, please click on the account that was selected
3. You will see an ID associated with your ad account name. Please copy it
4. Come back to the EdgeTag dashboard and paste the copied value under Account ID.
