Setup guidelink
Follow our step-by-step Outbrain setup guide to connect Outbrain with your destination using Fivetran connectors.
Sync overviewlink
The Outbrain connector supports multithreading. We use multiple parallel API requests to sync Ads data from your Outbrain account to your destination. The connector’s sync speed depends on your Outbrain API quota and account metadata.
Schema informationlink
Outbrain's schema follows Fivetran's standard API schema rules.

The following details can provide some helpful supplementary information about how Fivetran's schema represents Outbrain relationships.
SuffixTrackingCodelink
Suffix tracking codes defined in Outbrain campaigns are blown out into SUFFIX_TRACKING_CODE_HISTORY
; e.g. ?utm_source=facebook
will yield key=utm_source, value=facebook
.
GeolocationReportlink
Location-based reporting is on a per-country basis.
CampaignSegmentlink
Both included and excluded segments in Campaigns are recorded in CAMPAIGN_SEGMENT
. The value of CAMPAIGN_SEGMENT.status
will be either INCLUDED
or EXCLUDED
to differentiate targeting relationships.
TargetingInterestlink
Outbrain allows campaigns to target customers users based on interests, and also provides some simple logic for more constrained targeting.
Example #1: Interest A or Blink
This configuration would add 2 records to TARGETING_INTEREST
where match_op=INCLUDED
.
Example #2: not Interest A (exclude people who match at least one)link
This configuration would add 1 record to TARGETING_INTEREST
where match_op=EXCLUDED
.
Example #3: Interest (A or B) and (C or D)link
This configuration yields the below mapping, where interest=INTEREST.name
.
