Airbyte
Load API Direct data into your warehouse with our Airbyte source connector. Social posts, reviews, news and web results land as tables in BigQuery, Snowflake, Postgres or any other Airbyte destination, on a schedule, with no code. It works on Airbyte Cloud and self-hosted Airbyte.
Install
- Download
manifest.yaml. - In Airbyte, open Builder → New custom connector → Import a YAML manifest and upload the file.
- Click Publish. API Direct now appears under Sources → New source.
Set up a source
- Copy your API key from the API Keys page (it starts with
ak_live_). - Create an API Direct source and paste the key.
- Enter your Search terms. Each search stream runs once per term.
- Optionally, list the accounts, pages, posts or products to track under Accounts to monitor and Posts, products, places and categories to look up.
- Click Set up source, pick a destination, choose your streams and set a schedule.
Good to know
- Cost: each stream bills one request per search term (or listed item) per page, per sync, at the endpoint’s normal price. Enable only the streams you need.
- Incremental sync: streams with a publication date only sync records published since the last sync.
- Errors: an invalid key or empty balance fails the sync with a clear message; an account or post that doesn’t exist is skipped.
