Load your LinkedIn Ads data into your data warehouse

Blendo will queue your sync request and start syncing on its schedule. If you want to trigger it on your own here is how to start loading your LinkedIn Ads data into your data warehouse:

LinkedIn Ads Data Model & Schema Information

Blendo will now connect to your LinkedIn Ads data source. It will sync your historical data and all the future updates into your destination data warehouse. You will get analytics ready tables and syncs that make sure you will get recent and consistent data.

Let’s see:

  1. How Blendo syncs LinkedIn Ads data
  2. The tables with LinkedIn Ads data that we create in your destination data warehouse

How Blendo syncs LinkedIn Ads data

Historical Data

When Blendo first connects to LinkedIn Ads Data source, will pull all your historical data.

Sync Schedule

Blendo syncs LinkedIn Ads data based on the schedule and frequency you choose. The default setting is every 1 hour but is configurable from inside the app.

Replication Process

The first time Blendo syncs your LinkedIn Ads data performs a full replication. Then your LinkedIn Ads data is replicated incrementally. Note that Blendo will only read your data.

LinkedIn Ads API Limits & Replication Frequency

LinkedIn Ads’ API does not support any filtering to a date that we could use to fetch incremental data for any of their endpoints. The only exception to that rule is the Deals resource which supports fetching incremental data. For more information visit LinkedIn Ads doc here.

After you finish the integration with LinkedIn Ads, you might see its status as Importing from sourceExporting to the destination, or Completed.

What LinkedIn Ads data do I have available?

Blendo creates analytics ready tables with recent and consistent data. Bellow is a diagram of the schema and you may also find a CSV with all the columns and fields in more detail.
