Snapchat Ads + Bruin

Source

Ingest Snapchat Ads data into your warehouse with incremental loading, quality checks, and full lineage. Defined in YAML, version-controlled in Git.

For business teams

What you get

Cross-channel ad reporting
See Snapchat Ads spend alongside Google Ads, Facebook, and every other channel — in one place, updated automatically.
True ROAS, not estimated
Join Snapchat Ads spend with actual revenue from Stripe or your CRM. Know your real return on ad spend, not what the ad platform tells you.
No more manual exports
Stop downloading CSVs from Snapchat Ads. Stakeholders get fresh data every morning without asking anyone.
Catch budget anomalies early
Quality checks flag unexpected spend spikes or zero-impression campaigns before they burn budget.

For data & engineering teams

How it works

Incremental sync with lookback
Bruin handles Snapchat Ads's attribution windows automatically. Set lookback days in the connection URI — no custom logic needed.
YAML-defined, Git-versioned
Your Snapchat Ads pipeline is a YAML file. Review in PRs, deploy with CI/CD, roll back with git revert.
Column-level quality checks
Validate spend, impressions, and clicks with not_null, unique, and custom SQL checks. Pipeline stops on failure.
Multi-destination support
Land Snapchat Ads data in BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift, or DuckDB. Switch destinations by changing one line.

Before you start

Snapchat Business Account

Snapchat Marketing API app

OAuth credentials (refresh_token, client_id, client_secret)

Step 1

Add your Snapchat Ads connection

Connect using Snapchat Marketing API OAuth credentials. Add this to your Bruin environment file — credentials are stored securely and referenced by name in your pipeline YAML.

Parameters

refresh_tokenOAuth refresh token for Snapchat Marketing API
client_idOAuth client ID for your Snapchat Marketing API app
client_secretOAuth client secret for your Snapchat Marketing API app
organization_idOrganization ID (optional, required for most resources)

connections:
  snapchatads:
    type: snapchatads
    uri: "snapchatads://?refresh_token=<refresh_token>&client_id=<client_id>&client_secret=<client_secret>&organization_id=<organization_id>"

Step 2

Create your pipeline

Define a YAML asset that tells Bruin what to pull from Snapchat Ads and where to land it. This file lives in your Git repo — reviewable, version-controlled, and deployable with CI/CD.

Available tables

organizationscampaignsadsadsquadsadaccountscreativessegments

name: raw.snapchatads_organizations
type: ingestr

parameters:
  source_connection: snapchatads
  source_table: 'organizations'
  destination: bigquery

Step 3

Add quality checks

Add column-level and custom SQL checks to your Snapchat Ads data. If a check fails, the pipeline stops — bad data never reaches downstream models or dashboards.

Catch negative ad spend before it reaches reports

Validate impressions >= clicks on every sync

Flag campaigns with missing IDs or null spend

columns:
  - name: campaign_id
    checks:
      - name: not_null
  - name: spend
    checks:
      - name: not_null
  - name: impressions
    checks:
      - name: not_null

custom_checks:
  - name: no negative ad spend
    query: |
      SELECT COUNT(*) = 0
      FROM raw.snapchatads_organizations
      WHERE spend < 0

Step 4

Run it

One command. Bruin connects to Snapchat Ads, pulls data incrementally, runs your quality checks, and lands clean data in your warehouse. If a check fails, the pipeline stops — bad data never reaches downstream.

Backfill historical data with --start-date

Schedule with cron or trigger from CI/CD

Full lineage from Snapchat Ads to your dashboards
