Connecting Outbrain

Step 1: Add Outbrain as a Stitch data source

1. Sign into your Stitch account.

2. On the Stitch Dashboard page, click theAdd Integration button.

3. Click theOutbrain icon.

4. Enter a name for the integration. This is the name that will display on the Stitch Dashboard for the integration; it’ll also be used to create the schema in your destination.

   For example, the name “Stitch Outbrain” would create a schema calledstitch_outbrain in the destination.Note: Schema names cannot be changed after you save the integration.

5. In theAccount ID field, enter your Outbrain Account (or Marketer) ID.

   You can find this by looking at the URL when you’re logged into your Outbrain account. The Account ID looks something like this:0f4b02153ee75f3c9dc4fc128ab041962 and is located betweenmarketers andcampaigns, if you’re looking at the Overview dashboard:

   https://my.outbrain.com/amplify/site/marketers/[account-id-will-be-here]/campaigns/overview

6. In theUsername field, enter your Outbrain username.
7. In thePassword field, enter your Outbrain password.

Step 2: Define the historical replication start date

The Sync Historical Data setting defines the starting date for your Outbrain integration. This means that dataequal to or newer than this date will be replicated to your data warehouse.

Change this setting if you want to replicate data beyond Outbrain’s default setting of1 year. For a detailed look at historical replication jobs, check out theSyncing Historical SaaS Data guide.

Step 3: Create a replication schedule

In theReplication Frequency section, you’ll create the integration’sreplication schedule. An integration’s replication schedule determines how often Stitch runs a replication job, and the time that job begins.

Outbrain integrations support the following replication scheduling methods:

• Replication Frequency

• Anchor Scheduling

• Advanced Scheduling using Cron (Advanced or Premium plans only)

To keep your row usage low, consider setting the integration to replicate less frequently. See theUnderstanding and Reducing Your Row Usage guide for tips on reducing your usage.

Initial and historical replication jobs

After you finish setting up Outbrain, itsSync Status may show asPending on either the Stitch Dashboard or in the Integration Details page.

For a new integration, aPending status indicates that Stitch is in the process of scheduling the initial replication job for the integration.This may take some time to complete.

Free historical data loads

The first seven days of replication, beginning when data is first replicated, are free. Rows replicated from the new integration during this time won’t count towards your quota. Stitch offers this as a way of testing new integrations, measuring usage, and ensuring historical data volumes don’t quickly consume your quota.
