Answers about AzureSQL setup, available source data, schedules, table updates, and SQL use cases.

What is the setup for sending Outbrain data to Azure SQL?

Add Outbrain in Sources and connect the existing Azure SQL database in Storage. A datastream defines the route, while the job loads the chosen fields into "ads".

What can I select from Outbrain before writing to Azure SQL?

Select concrete Outbrain fields such as Apple SKAdNetwork Conversion Average Value, Apple SKAdNetwork Conversion Value, Apple SKAdNetwork Conversions, and Day of the month. You can rename the chosen columns, preview the result, and write them to Azure SQL tables such as accounts, advertisers, and campaigns.

Can an Outbrain-to-Azure SQL job import historical periods?

Define the first Outbrain fetch, run frequency, and lookback window in the "ads" job. Each scheduled run replaces data inside the configured period.

Why does the Outbrain Azure SQL job need a partition field?

Use a supported date field to partition "ads". Recurring Outbrain runs can then update the selected window instead of adding another copy of the same period.

Which decisions can an Outbrain dataset in Azure SQL support?

With Outbrain data, an Azure SQL query can summarize spend, impressions, clicks, and click-through rate by campaign. Model Apple SKAdNetwork Conversion Average Value and Apple SKAdNetwork Conversion Value in SQL, then expose the result to dashboards, internal tools, or recurring client reports.

Does my Azure SQL database need to exist before I connect it?

Yes. Connect an existing Azure SQL  database first. The Catchr job creates and populates the destination table you configure inside that database.

Can I load several marketing sources into the same Azure SQL  database?

Yes. Create a separate datastream and job for each source, write each export to its own table, then combine the data downstream with SQL, views, or your BI tool.
