Would you like to add a new data source? To connect various apps to Whatagraph and use them as data sources in your reports, you'll need to have certain roles and permissions set within those apps.

Here's a list of some of the most popular integrations and the level of access you need for them:

  • Facebook Page – any role is fine as long as the user has Insights permissions and access to the Business Account or the Business Asset group to which the page is linked.

  • Facebook Ads – any role is fine as long as the user has View Performance permissions and access to the Business Account or the Business Asset group to which the page is linked.

  • Instagram Bussiness – any role is fine as long as the user has Insights permissions to the Instagram account and the Facebook Page that is linked to it. Additionally, access to the Business Account or the Business Asset group to which the Instagram account is linked.

  • Twitter – any role is fine if the user is logged into the specific account upon connecting to Whatagraph. The developer platform subscription is required to connect Twitter Organic to the source management. You can find more information here.

  • Twitter Ads – all roles except the Creative Manager are fine.

  • LinkedIn – the user should be set as Super Admin.

  • LinkedIn Ads – any role is fine if the user is set as Page Admin of a related LinkedIn account and has access to it within Campaign Manager.

  • YouTube – any role is fine. If the permissions are received via Youtube Studio, only an "Owner" role would allow you to add the source to the source management.

  • Google Analytics 4 – any role is fine.

  • Google Ads – all roles except Ad Exchange Manager and Legal Manager are fine. The access level should be higher than email-only.

  • Mailchimp – any role is fine.
