Facebook Ads is an online advertising platform developed by Facebook that allows businesses and advertisers to create ad campaigns for delivery across different formats, such as News Feed, Stories, video, and mobile apps.

With Erathos, you can integrate Facebook Ads data into Amazon S3 in just a few minutes. Our platform handles the entire data movement process to your data lake and lets you combine that data with other sources. That way, your time goes to what really creates value — turning data into insights and making data-driven decisions.

### What Facebook Ads data does Erathos sync to Amazon S3?

The integration automatically syncs the main Facebook Ads objects:

- **Campaigns** — name, status, channel, start and end dates
- **Leads and contacts** — source, stage, and engagement data
- **Performance metrics** — impressions, clicks, conversions, and cost per result
- **Lists and segments** — composition and segmentation criteria
- **Automations** — flows, triggers, and conversion rates
- **Users** — profiles, preferences, and interaction history

### Why sync Facebook Ads with Amazon S3?

In Amazon S3 with Iceberg, your data is stored as Parquet files with support for time travel and schema evolution — ready to be queried with Athena, Spark, Trino, or any query engine in your stack. Ideal for low-cost archiving and ML feature stores.

### How it works

Erathos connects to Facebook Ads through the official API and syncs your data incrementally — only new or updated records are processed on each run. You choose the sync frequency (from every 5 minutes to daily), which objects to sync, and the destination in Amazon S3. Syncing uses automatic partitioning and Parquet file optimization. You choose the sync frequency, the objects to sync, and the destination bucket. Each run is logged with full observability: runtime, processed rows, context-rich errors, and alerts via Slack or email.
