YouTube Analytics connector supports YouTube Analytics Bulk Reports. It retrieves bulk reports containing YouTube Analytics data for a channel or content owner.
YouTube does not start to generate a report until you create a reporting job for that report. Airbyte creates a reporting job for your report or uses current reporting job if it's already exists. The report will be available within 48 hours of creating the reporting job and will be for the day that the job was scheduled. For example, if you schedule a job on September 1, 2015, then the report for September 1, 2015, will be ready on September 3, 2015. The report for September 2, 2015, will be posted on September 4, 2015, and so forth. Youtube also generates historical data reports covering the 30-day period prior to when you created the job. Airbyte syncs all available historical data too.
