Load your Twitter Ads data into your data warehouse

Twitter Ads Data Model & Schema Information

Blendo will now connect to your Twitter 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 Twitter Ads data
  2. The tables with Twitter Ads data that we create in your destination data warehouse

How Blendo syncs Twitter Ads data

Historical Data

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

Sync Schedule

Blendo syncs Twitter 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 Twitter Ads data performs a full replication. Then your Twitter Ads data is replicated incrementally. Note that Blendo will only read your data.

Twitter Ads API Limits & Replication Frequency

Twitter 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 Twitter Ads doc here.

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

What Twitter 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.
