Step 3: Getting Snapchat Ads Performance Data in Google Sheets
To start getting your ad relevant data into Google Sheets, you need to start creating queries. To add a new Data Query, click on Data Queries and click on Add new.
And now you can start creating your own Data Query using the drop downs below. Create a name for your Data Query, add a location to run the query. Select on Metrics which consists of the vital data of the data source like Impressions, Top ads, Swipes, Swipe Rate etc. Once you select your required Metrics go down to select dimensions according to your added Metrics.
Dimensions are used to group your Metrics in a particular aspect like Account Name, Ad ID, Account Id etc. After selecting the dimension you need to select the date range for the data to be displayed. Once you select the date range, you can run the query and the query data would be displayed in the given location.
Once you get the data in your Google sheet, you can customize your data by adding Pivot table VLOOKUP(), Charts and Graphs. By adding these you can create your own personalized Dashboard.
Once your report is created you can create a Schedule in Google Sheets to automatically update your sheets and keep your data up-to-date. This feature is handy to send emails, or just refresh your spreadsheets with live data and use it as a Dashboard.
Step 4: (Optional) Schedule Automatic data Refresh and email
Once you have fetched data once, you might want to get new data from your database at periodic intervals. You can do this creating a new schedule under the “Schedule Reports” section. You can schedule updates hourly, daily, weekly or monthly based on your needs.
You could also create a report and ask Two Minute Reports to email that report with updated data automatically. Under the email section enter the email Id of the recipients and save your new schedule.
When the time comes, Two Minute Reports will automatically fetch new data from your queries, and email your report to the said recipients. You have freed a lot of your time from mundane reporting tasks.
