Step-by-step instructions

In upper section we learned how to read data, now in this section we will learn how to configure Nativo in the API Source to POST data to the Nativo.

Open Visual Studio and click Create a new project.
Select Integration Services Project. Enter a name and location for your project, then click OK.
From the SSIS Toolbox, drag and drop a Data Flow Task onto the Control Flow surface, and double-click it:
Make sure you are in the Data Flow Task designer:
Read the data from the source, using any desired source component. You can even make an API call using the ZappySys JSON/XML/API Source and read data from there. In this example, we will use an OLE DB Source component to read real-time data from a SQL Server database.
From the SSIS Toolbox drag and drop API Destination (Predefined Templates) on the Data Flow Designer surface and connect source component with it, and double click to edit it.
Select New Connection to create a new connection:

API Destination - Nativo

Read and write Nativo advertising data effortlessly. Integrate, manage, and automate campaigns and performance — almost no coding required.
To configure the Nativo connector, choose one of the following methods:
- Choose from Popular Connector List: Select a pre-installed service directly from the dropdown menu.
- Search Online: Use this to find and download a new connector file to your computer.
- Use Saved/Downloaded File: Once the file is downloaded, browse your local drive to load it into the configuration.
After that, just click Continue >>:

Nativo

Proceed with selecting the desired Authentication Type. Then select API Base URL (in most cases default one is the right one). Finally, fill in all the required parameters and set optional parameters if needed. You may press a link Steps to Configure which will help set certain parameters. More info is available in Authentication section.

Load Nativo data into SQL Server using Upsert Destination (Insert or Update)

Once you configured the data source, you can load Nativo data into SQL Server using Upsert Destination.

Upsert Destination can merge or synchronize source data with the target table. It supports Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and Redshift databases as targets. Upsert Destination also supports very fast bulk upsert operation along with bulk delete.

Upsert operation - a database operation which performs INSERT or UPDATE SQL commands based on record's existence condition in the target table. It inserts records that don't have matching records in the target table or updates them, if they do, by matching them by key columns.

Upsert Destination supports INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE operations, so it is similar to SQL Server's MERGE command, except it can be used directly in SSIS package.

From the SSIS Toolbox drag-and-drop Upsert Destination component onto the Data Flow designer background.
Connect your SSIS source component to Upsert Destination.
Double-click on Upsert Destination component to open configuration window.
Start by selecting the Action from the list.
Next, select the desired target connection or create one by clicking <New [provider] Connection> menu item from the Target Connection dropdown.
Then select a table from the Target Table list or click New button to create a new table based on the source columns.
Continue by checking Insert and Update options according to your scenario (e.g. if Update option is unchecked, no updates will be made).
Finally, click Map All button to map all columns and then select the Key columns to match the columns on:
Click OK to save the configuration.
Run the package and Nativo data will be merged with the target table in SQL Server, PostgreSQL, or Redshift:
Done!

Deploy and schedule SSIS package

After you are done creating SSIS package, most likely, you want to deploy it to SQL Server Catalog and run it periodically. Just follow the instructions in this article:
