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

Can Catchr send Instagram records directly to PostgreSQL?

Add Instagram in Sources and connect the existing PostgreSQL database in Storage. A datastream defines the route, while the job loads the chosen fields into "media".

How much control do I have over Instagram fields in PostgreSQL?

Select concrete Instagram fields such as Media Engagement Rate, Media Interaction, Profile Account Engaged, and Day of the month. You can rename the chosen columns, preview the result, and write them to PostgreSQL tables such as accounts, profiles, and posts.

How should I configure recurring Instagram imports in PostgreSQL?

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

How do I prevent duplicate Instagram rows in PostgreSQL?

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

How can a team use Instagram data after it reaches PostgreSQL?

With Instagram data, a PostgreSQL query can summarize impressions, reach, engagements, and engagement rate by post. Model Media Engagement Rate and Media Interaction in SQL, then expose the result to dashboards, internal tools, or recurring client reports.

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

Yes. Connect an existing PostgreSQL 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 Postgres 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.

Still have a question ?

Our teams is always here to responds to any question you could have about our data connector.

Your next database import should not start with five exports.
