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

How do I start a scheduled Facebook Public Data import into MySQL?

Start with a connected Facebook Public Data source and an existing MySQL database. Create a datastream between them, then configure the accounts, fields, schedule, and "profiles" table.

Which Facebook Public Data entities can become MySQL tables?

Select concrete Facebook Public Data fields such as Checkins, Comments Count, Comments Per Post, and Day of the month. You can rename the chosen columns, preview the result, and write them to MySQL tables such as accounts, profiles, and posts.

Does Catchr support an initial fetch for Facebook Public Data data in MySQL?

Set an initial fetch period for Facebook Public Data, then choose the frequency and lookback window for the job writing to "profiles". Catchr rewrites that selected period on each run.

Which partition setting keeps Facebook Public Data MySQL rows updated?

The partition field tells Catchr which Facebook Public Data rows in "profiles" belong to the period being refreshed. If you omit it, every run appends records rather than updating them.

What is a practical SQL use case for Facebook Public Data data?

With Facebook Public Data data, a MySQL query can summarize impressions, reach, engagements, and engagement rate by post. A query built around Checkins and Comments Count can support trend reviews, account comparisons, and operational reporting.

Does my MySQL database need to exist before I connect it?

Yes. Connect an existing MySQL 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 MySQL 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.
