This is a Singer tap that produces JSON-formatted data following the Singer spec.

This tap:

Authentication

The Snapchat Ads Marketing API uses OAuth for API Authentication. Follow these instructions to: Obtain App Credentials.

  1. Login to Snapchat Business Manager.
  2. Select Business Settings > Business Details

Business_Settings

  1. Click + OAuth App

Add_OAuth

  1. Accept / Save API Terms and Conditions

  1. Enter **App Name: **tap-snapchat-ads, Snap Redirect URI: YOUR_REDIRECT_URI, example: https://app.stitchdata.com/v2/integrations/platform.snapchat_ads/callback

Save_OAuth

  1. Copy your credentials, client_id and client_secret.

OAuth_Credentials

  1. Enter the following (adjusted) URL into your browser:
    1. URL: https://accounts.snapchat.com/login/oauth2/authorize?client_id=`YOUR_CLIENT_ID`&redirect_uri=`YOUR_REDIRECT_URI`
    2. Authenticate the API App with username, password, and connection approval (Continue, Continue).
    3. Code: Capture the ...&code=xxxxxx… in the redirect URL. This code is used in the next step to generate the refresh_token.

  1. Run the following curl command with the parameters replaced to return your refresh_token. The refresh_token persists indefinitely and is used to generate an access_token (short-lived) for authenticating each API Call.

        -H "Accept: application/json"\

  4. Run the Tap in Discovery Mode This creates a catalog.json for selecting objects/fields to integrate:

    tap-snapchat-ads --config config.json --discover > catalog.json

    See the Singer docs on discovery mode here.

  5. Run the Tap in Sync Mode (with catalog) and write out to state file

    For Sync mode:

    > tap-snapchat-ads --config tap_config.json --catalog catalog.json > state.json
    > tail -1 state.json > state.json.tmp && mv state.json.tmp state.json

    To load to json files to verify outputs:

    > tap-snapchat-ads --config tap_config.json --catalog catalog.json | target-json > state.json
    > tail -1 state.json > state.json.tmp && mv state.json.tmp state.json

    To pseudo-load to Stitch Import API with dry run:

    > tap-snapchat-ads --config tap_config.json --catalog catalog.json | target-stitch --config target_config.json --dry-run > state.json
    > tail -1 state.json > state.json.tmp && mv state.json.tmp state.json
  6. Test the Tap

    While developing the Snapchat Ads Marketing tap, the following utilities were run in accordance with Singer.io best practices: Pylint to improve code quality:

    > pylint tap_snapchat_ads -d missing-docstring -d logging-format-interpolation -d too-many-locals -d too-many-arguments

    Pylint test resulted in the following score:

    Your code has been rated at 9.61/10.

    To check the tap and verify working:

    > tap-snapchat-ads --config tap_config.json --catalog catalog.json | singer-check-tap > state.json
    > tail -1 state.json > state.json.tmp && mv state.json.tmp state.json

    Check tap resulted in the following:
