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

What is the setup for sending Outbrain data to MySQL?

Add Outbrain in Sources and connect the existing MySQL 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 MySQL?

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 MySQL tables such as accounts, advertisers, and campaigns.

Can a Outbrain-to-MySQL 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 MySQL 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 a Outbrain MySQL dataset support?

With Outbrain data, a MySQL 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 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.
