Meta Ads (sample data) data, published as Meta Ads (sample data) publishes it. Ingest delivers this data to a data warehouse you own as 4 tables, and updates it on the schedule you choose. There is no code to write and nothing to install.

What you get

TableEach row is
ad_sets
ad_sets
Ad sets with their audience targeting summary and optimization goal.
ads

Every Facebook and Instagram campaign: objective, status, daily budget and its start and stop times.
insights_daily
insights_daily
One row per ad per publisher platform (facebook, instagram) per day: impressions, reach, clicks, spend, CPM, CTR, add-to-cart, purchases and purchase value.

How it works

  1. Choose Meta Ads (sample data). The data is public, so there is nothing to sign in to.
  2. Pick where it goes. BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks, Redshift and 10 more, in an account you own.
  3. Pick a schedule. Daily is the default, and weekly and monthly are there too.
  4. Ingest runs it from then on. If a run fails, your dashboard shows which table and why.

Questions

Do I need an account with Meta Ads (sample data)?
No. The data is public, so there is nothing to sign up for and nothing to paste in.
Which warehouses can Meta Ads (sample data) data go to?
Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, Apache Iceberg, Ingest Managed Lakehouse, MotherDuck, Postgres, Amazon Athena, Databricks, Redshift, BigQuery, ClickHouse, MySQL / generic SQL and Snowflake, in an account you own.
How fresh is the data?
As fresh as your schedule: daily by default, or weekly or monthly. Schedules as often as every 15 minutes are on the Enterprise plan.
Will running it again create duplicate rows?
No. Each row is stored once, by its key: when a run reads a row that is already there, it replaces that copy instead of adding a second one.
Do I need to write code?
No. Ingest builds, runs and maintains the connector. Someone with access to your warehouse connects it once, following a short guide.
For your data team: technical reference

Connector sample_meta_ads, version 0.1.0, a REST source, status beta, authentication none.
